My opinion is that Marquise Kennedy had no interest in coming to Illinois State after DJ Horne committed. Had nothing to do with whether or not Dan backed off. Can’t remember the last time Illinois State signed to good freshman point guards the same season.

We will never know, but if I were betting my own money, I would bet Muller and Co. knew Kennedy wasn't coming after his visit, which allowed them to then move forward and sign Horne.

At a school like ISU, if you don't close a kid during the visit, the probability of him signing goes down considerably when he's visiting places like Wichita and Loyola afterward, and with Florida St. in the mix.
Yep, I am sure they had a good read and decided to pursue Horne hard
