Illinois basketball recruiting: past & present
An article in the Lawrence (Kan.) Journal-World today has a couple of pieces of interesting news for fans of Illinois basketball.
On the Brandon Rush recruiting saga, which Illini Wonk recently posted on here, the article from Gary Bedore reads: Still no rush to judgment: Brandon Rush, a 6-foot-6 guard from Kansas City, Mo., did not announce his college plans on Monday. It’s believed he’s still waiting word from the NCAA Clearinghouse before announcing for either KU, Indiana or Illinois. Sources close to the family have said KU is the likely choice as long as he’s eligible to play. The long-awaited decision could come today or Wednesday.
The article also includes a final report from the Sport Tours International All-Stars six-game trip to Sentjur, Slovenia. Incoming Illinois Freshman, Chester Frazier, finished third on the team in scoring with a 10.8 ppg average. posted by Illiniwonk at 10:42 PM
