The guy who tweeted it has also had a Twitter exchange with Recon in the last hour telling him how much we will enjoy him in Normal.
It’s happening.

Yes, we shouldn't be recruiting only from Illinois and Chicago-land. However, Illinois has always been a historically strong high school basketball state. Look at all the P5 conferences that get Illinois talent. ISU "should" have an advantage for getting this in-state talent. I also don't care where we get players from but we are already here in Illinois. Look at where some of Illinois' best talent ends up.CaliRdBrd said:I don’t understand the need to get players from Illinois. I don’’t care if they’re from Timbuktu. If they can get us out of this 21 year funk, then that’s all that matters to me.

I saw the tweets. Did we forget to tell Duhon he's fired?

Lyons will be leaving soon...(a couple of years or so)
Muller will become the new AD...
and the coaching staff still has HC experience...

There is an ISU basketball story (the top sports team in the community) and Benson decides to just tweet random vague tweets on the subject. How about doing some work and finding out the story? I don't care if Muller doesn't want this to be released. Benson basically just waits until there is an ISU press release to do anything. Call someone, figure out what is going on, and write about it. @Adunk33 and I don't agree on much, but I think we are on the same page about this.

:lol: Welcome to the club! :lol: Be fair to Benson.... it is almost time for the grueling local amateur golf season. He has to get mentally prepared for that and doesn't have time for this stuff and be able to meet his deadline.

Now there's an 80's movie...jarred my nuggets loose upstairs. Probably haven't seen that one since the 80's!

I thought strange brew was appropriate given some past references to an assistant coach drinking beer and eating cheese curds at the pub.
