I've been working the phones on this tonight:

--- First of all, as of like two weeks ago, I really liked where Iowa State was.

--- Seems like Illinois has made a final push - specifically with his AAU club.

--- If I were a betting man, I'd still give Iowa State a strong lean tomorrow.

Not a done deal by any means but I feel good about it. Stay tuned.
Underwood focusing on the AAU? No way!

That doesn't sound shady, at all.

Either would jump at a chance to play us in the United Center and DePaul would give us a return game in Hilton to get it. Sarcasm plays better when you know what you're talking about.

Kind of surprised we haven't gotten a home-and-home going with DePaul already. Should be a nearly annual thing. Mix in Northwestern too. Makes too much sense to get into Chicago. Would do the same with Minnesota but I understand why they wouldn't want to. Maybe get a 4 game series with Northwestern with games at Hilton, their place, Wells Fargo, and the United Center.

I really hope we get this kid. I think that these three guys we have set the table for a good class. Anybody else, especially THT at that point would be a huge cherry on top.

Think we need to start thinking about getting DePaul and Notre Dame on the schedule in the near future.

I was about to post that UIC might be better, as they actually play in the city. But then I double-checked just in case, and I guess DePaul is moving back to the city from where they used to play at Rosemont for all those years. They going to be playing near McCormick Place now (near Soldier Field.)

Heck, schedule home-and-aways with both of them! I'd love to see ISU play a game in Chicago every year!

I am guessing DePaul won't be playing at the UC anytime soon as they are the main tenant of the new arena opening up near the McCormick Center. That said...I would love to play DePaul...grew up watching them on WGN...it is a shame what that athletic department has done to the basketball program at that school! Sad!
