I couldn't see the game on TV but after watching the highlights, I'm hyped up. Some big time players are lining up yet again for the Illini folks. We all know about Buchanan, Spence, Brown, Hawthorne and those guys, but man you have some true young studs in guys like Caldwell, Fergueson, Fuller, etc. The beat will just keep going. If they get a monster 2013 class, there is no limit (None...even NC) to how good the Illini could be in the next few years.
I just keep going back to Caldwell though because all along I thought he was going to wind up even better than Mercilus and Buchanan (Which says a LOT). That hasn't changed. He's going to be an early 1st round, top 10 (Top 5) potential #1 pick type of guy. He's a monster in the making. TheDawson made a comment a few months back that physically he looks like Demarcus Ware and I agree with that, but don't be surprised if he sees that tytpe of career/go in a similar way in the draft.
