This is a good place of recruiting news about Illinois HS recruits. I still wonder what affect waiting to offer some potential Huskies does for our chances of landing them later. WMU, Toledo, BG, Miami etc. seem to have offered many kids from Illinois. when you click on the player, most have not been offered by NIU. Seems like you would like to get your name in the hat so that if the kid commits early, you have a chance.

I think you have to remember, the only accurate list of offers is in the Head Coaches office. Edgy has only what some players tell him. I think our staff knows what thsy are doing and they have all the information at their disposal.

I know they get the info from the player but why would he not include NIU if he had an offer from us? I am not saying give out 500 offer like some programs but any football player in Illinois that is a quality player and quality student should be offered. Got to get your name in early. PJ has done that and has 5 commits from Illinois. We have none.

I think what GCD is saying is that we should trust that the coaches know who is a "quality player" and who we need to spend our time and effort on. I am not really worried that PJ might win another "recruiting championship." I put my trust in steady and consistent over flashy any time.
