Coach Big Pete Talks About Illinois Recruiting Classes of 2023 and 2024. What You Need to know and who you should look out for.....
Again due to the Covid Pandemic - It has hurt scouting on a lot of the younger classes. Not to mention some recruits having zero game film to scout. I have no doubt in my mind that a lot of names will be added after the spring season.

REMEMBER- MORE NAMES WILL BE ADDED BY APRIL AND MONTHLY THIS IS A WATCHLIST NO RANKINGS, NAMES ARE NOT IN ORDER. REMEMBER THE ONLY ONE THAT MATTERS IN YOUR RECRUITING IS YOUR HIGH SCHOOL COACH
ALSO YOUNGER RECRUITS REMEMBER YOU ARE STILL GROWING INTO YOUR BODIES, AND MONTHS CHANGE PLAYERS HEIGHT, WEIGHT, MUSCLE, SPEED.
