Committed to the Illini

 

[The Murphinator]

This actually shocked me

Schaefer said he has heard there are academic concerns here as well, but you'll know for sure next summer.

 

[Huskinator]

No! We have the "academic issue weak" dt in masery. Remember we made a huge mistake taking the strong instate talent.

So now that Watts may not make it to campus, shouldn't we be finding his replacement? How many years do Mick and Peyton have left?

They are both juniors this year.

 

[Mavric]

It was crazy how high of a percentage of the DTs we were recruiting in the 2017 cycle were academic risks. As in, maybe 75% of them.

So it would be plausible that we tried to stay away from another academic risk, especially when we may already have one committed.

 

[C N Red]

Kid isnt gonna make it. Juco most likely. Time we start passing on kids like this. I applaud Riley. Get some qualified kids or move on.

Something isn't right if he's ending up at Illinois. Not to take away from Lovie, who I respect, but it just seems off. The academics could be it and they must be really really bad grades commit to Illinois over any other legitimate p5 school

 

[NM11046]

But, can I remind you. We really screwed up on missing this one.

Coaches know stuff.

except illinois is a really hard school to get into so that doesn't make sense either

Point taken. Still seems odd
