RECRUITING: Conditt sets official visit to Iowa State
- Thread starter JStanz51
- Start date
Every time I go to a festival of any kind in DSM I see the girls and I think to myself "Is Wilson Phillips playing?".
From Illinois board on Conditt's visit:

#Illini staff will follow up with @george_conditt later this week to schedule an in-home visit.

Conditt told me that #Illini freshman Mark Smith was in his ear quite a bit. And he likes what he sees.. "Guard play there is amazing."

.@george_conditt said he had a really good #Illini OV. Likes the players. Staff has a plan for him. Will be "hardest decision of his life".

Absolutely. I think Illinois wins this but it's going to be close. Wish we gotten Griffin because while he's not a "game changer" necessarily in the recruitment having another good Chicago player he's familiar with probably makes the pitch from Iowa St. somewhat stronger...
He tweeted about our guards and how good they were.. No doubt Underwood hammered that home to him. We have several great guards who will get him the ball in a position to succeed.

Griffin's not a "game changer"? Really? You might regret saying that.
With all that being said, I can't wait for Underwood and Illinois to start routinely beating Franny and his boys. Shouldn't be long... Underwood's pretty good.
Keep ISU in the recruits minds.
@AlexHalsted Iowa State target @George_Conditt tells @CycloneAlert247 that coach Steve Prohm will be in to see him tomorrow: bit.ly/2txlkRB

I think he meant in regards to recruiting, that Griffin wouldn't swing Conditt...maybe i read it wrong

Ever heard of 5 star Lindell Wiggington?
Really hope this isn't a last effort thing because he's decided to commit to Illinois after visiting.
He tweeted even after his visit Oct. 2. Illinois is headed for an in home too, but he's dead set on Oct. 2 for a date
I didn't mean it as commit earlier than his date, I meant after his visit there he has made his mind up.
It is a last ditch effort, but it is a last ditch effort by both parties in a neck and neck race
6 of 6 CB's with 10 days to go. Just wish he spelled his name right, always have to stop myself from adding the "s".
Hmm I think our buddy Brad Underwood at Illinois has some potentially bigger problems to deal with, why go to a school where the coach might get indicted by the FBI
This investigation is going to change the playing field, the FBI could not have sprung it at a better time.
Conditt may have been considering the Illini, but can you still consider them when a former assistant of you head coach was caught up in an FBI sting? Underwood may not at Illinois too much longer.

Seems like wishful thinking that it would have any appreciable effect over the next 7 days. I think he's picking the Cyclones anyway though.
Has Underwood been accused of anything or just his assistant? I mean if he did nothing wrong. He will escape anything. However, as a recruit. You have to factor that something might not be on the up and up with him. So it could hurt recruiting.
Just looking at it logically: The kid knows if he was offered something. Waiting to find out what others know is probably not necessary if he already knows based on his own recruitment - one way or the other. Not accusing anyone
In other words, If he wasn't offered something by Illinois then he probably isn't worried.
This isn't the NCAA trying to go after school for hiring strippers, these assistants will face jail time. They most likely are gonna sing, guess will see if Underwood's name is in the lyrics of the song. It might not be, but even a cloud of suspicion casts a large shadow.
Maybe I am misreading your comments, not saying Conditt got offered anything, this is more about the head coach's future at Illinois given his association with the assistant at OSU.
Right now it may be up in the air.
Yeah, you'd have to think at least a few will take their bosses down with them, or at least try to push the blame that way.
