    Yes and no. Illinois location is surrounded by a higher amount pop of kids. Minnesota right now is really strong with high caliber talent in high school. There are a handful of guys that are being recruited nationally, which doesn't happen every year in minnesota. Lets not pretend that Illinois is mich st or ohio st. Gonna be interesting.

SS leading candidate.
    You've officially reached clown status. Nothing you say will be taken seriously from this point on. Take a look at this article ESPN just released... http://espn.go.com/mens-college-bask...coach-vcu-rams

    Didn't say Illinois was Michigan State or OSU. Just said Illinois has far greater potential than Minnesota.

    As to high caliber talent in high school - have you ever heard of a little Midwestern town called Chicago?
