The Final 4 teams of 1989 and 2005 were without a doubt the best teams in school history. I have not been pleased with the recruiting class Bruce Weber has brought in until now. With senior players Demetri McCamey and Mike Davis leading the way along with a top ten recruiting class led by Jereme Richmond, this team has the makings of a Final Four sleeper. Sophomores Brandon Paul should improve after a rocky freshmen year but DJ Richardson has the makings an all Big Ten player in the future. DJ Richardson's hidden potential is similar when Deron Williams starred for ILLINI.
Crandall Head should be healthy after tearing his ACL last summer and should provide some offense for this group. Myles Head will be thrown into the starting lineup day one as he's a legit seven footer.
With Michigan State, Ohio State, and Purdue as the best teams in the conference, this Fighting ILLINI team should challenge the Buckeyes for the third best team in the conference.

Harrison Barnes - Ames (IA) WIN BIG
The game just ended with Ames (IA) winning 87-59. Harrison Barnes just proved why he’s the nation best HS player in the land. He plays both ends of the court and did not take any plays off. I hope when they get back to North Chicago Jereme Richmond can lift his troops as they attempt to win a state title in his final season before heading down I-57.

The real star of the game so far is Northern Iowa Bound Doug McDermott. Overall Richmond and Barnes have played solid games and as I type, Richmond just caught a baseline lob to finish the jam. Right now Aimes has an 11 point lead in the 3rd quarter with Barnes finishing the jam.
