As of 7.14.15
So we could possibly bring in a seven player class and I think Groce hits a grand slam with this one.
My 2017 locks as of right now:
Damonte Williams - Illinois
Jeremiah Tilmon - Illinois
Jordan Goodwin - Illinois
Christian Negron - Illinois
Almost ready to pencil in to the 2017 class:
Alonzo Verge - So long as he stays with the his AAU buddies, I feel really good about him wanting to continue playing at Illinois. Regardless, I think we'll get an official visit in the fall of 2016.
Disinterested in Illinois and probably a waste of time trying to recruit:
Nojel Eastern - I think he ends up at Michigan State.
Charles Payton - He's more interested in another Bloomington school, different state.
C.J. Roberts - Stud, absolutely no interest.
Long shot, but could be a player in the recruitment:
Kris Wilkes - If we land the above four players it'll make his official visit very interesting. Yes, official visit. I believe we'll get one in the fall of 2016.
Paul Scruggs - He's visited already and I think we'll also get an official fall of 2016.
V.J. Bailey - I think it comes down to Texas (mom is track coach), Illinois (mom coached before Texas), Mizzou (Dad played there).
Interested to see where his recruitment goes:
Justin Smith - parents went to UI.
Another new name:
Mckinley Wright - Point guard from Minnesota.
