I know that college basketball does not get started for a couple of months, but I was ready to make some predictions about a couple of teams here in Illinois. MY thoughts and feels is that U of Illinois is going no where with there current head coach. The reason I feel this way is because he has missed out on a ton of recruits. He just cannot sign the blue chip players. His players have been caught doing stupid things and have not been punished. ON the Other side of the table Bradley is going to have a great ball team. The reason I think this is because they have a great coach who is still learning how to coach and is an awesome recruiter who does not cheat to get what he want. He has brought in talent not just from th Peoria region butt it seems like they have been from all over the US. My feeling is the way that Bradley is going they are going to final four before the Illini makes it back. I think Bradley has a better coach and supporting cast. Jim Les is the best coach I have seen in the area for a long time. He has enthusiasm and brings excitement to every game.
