He’s definitely extremely intriguing with his skillset! He’s very good. I could see him reclassifying. I was just saying I’m not sure there’s a clear leader yet and that we will hear anything definitive soon.Unless he decides to reclass to '25, etc...haven't seen anything that suggests that it's on the table this early, but he will be 18 by the time the 25-26 season starts and you never know with the $ being thrown around these days.
With that said, very, very few big guys have intrigued me more from a skillset standpoint out of the ones we've targeted/targeting.

OrangeandBlueNews - Illini in the mix for five-star guard Mikel Brown Jr.
Illinois is in the mix for five-star guard Mikel Brown Jr. from Florida prep school DME Academy.illinois.rivals.com
Needless to say...he's really good. As good a scorer you can find at that ball handling guard spot, can initiate as well...kinda Dillingham like IMO.
Some of the other programs in the mix for him shouldn't really have that much a better sell than us IMO. For whatever reason, have seen Ole Miss linked here for a while. Might probably come down to us and them then I guess...(?) I get it might be early to tell but...
Hope we have a good shot and are in a good spot nonetheless. Def. quite impressive that we're in consideration for five stars yearly now.
yep, good times. pretty soon we'll be edging into 6 star territory
Wake me up when it’s cut down to 3 schools with Illini in the mix.
I wish I could take my dads approach. Tune in when the season starts and root for the players in O&B. Unfortunately I put myself through the tortures of high school recruiting as well.Wake me up when it’s cut down to 3 schools with Illini in the mix.

Oddly enough, I enjoy the recruiting game as much as the actual games. And even further back before all the excellent info on Loyalty, and the internet. I used to subscribe to newsletters that came in the mail - maybe a Dave Kaplan? And religiously listen to Tate & Turpin on the radio. You youngsters have it easy!I wish I could take my dads approach.

Yeah...Well, he probably isn't that good anyway, and we weren't really recruiting him. I mean he is only a 4-star.....We have our sights set on bigger fish....We aren't in the mix with this one ...
