Chances are that we won't get them. However, you are being delusional if you don't think that the way that both Hill and Buckner have approached this recruitment is odd. Maybe with the limited recruiting successes that Illinois has had, you're new to following it. Much like most Illinois fans. This is not normal. If people want to take trips, they take their trips and say that they are 100% committed. You don't say "yeah...I'm kind of committed" and list a Top 3 of schools and what you love about each of them. That is weird and by anyone who follows recruiting would seem that they aren't solid.

Again, it probably won't happen, but Buckner saying things like how he wants to finish up his recruitment and be done with it before January...well...aren't you committed? Isn't it done?
The Illini fanbase can't handle success. Remember the arrogance and snobbery that came from their NC loss season? You would've thought they were the Bill Russell Celtics.
