Made it to Knoxville for Friday’s big grad day for @nick_allen20 #jurisdoctor from @UTKLaw #prouddad

@IlliniMBB @Recruit2Illini Great decision Andrej! I-L-L!

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@zioncdm7h @MarchMadnessMBB @IlliniMBB @IlliniAthletics @bigten I mean, he played last year for Providence College, which, last time I checked, was in the college level in the US.

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@gmalfas @John_Fanta He’s 20 and was 19 when the season started

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@ALionEye @Elohim48616976 @Light_The_I IIRC, Pearl also promised Deon’s “friend” in high school admission to Iowa and other benefits if the friend would serve as an informant to Pearl what was happening with Deon’s recruitment by Illinois.

@TylerCott What an incredible season by Keaton. Win 4 more and it’ll be absolutely legendary!

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@mrwagner25 Go to Camp and also visit Great Falls on the Reedy-beautiful park in the middle of the city

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@ALionEye The 20’s belong to the Illini!

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@ALionEye What’s our record in those games? 3-1 in 04/05,1-2 in 23/24, 1-1 in 25/26 so far but I don’t recall all the others

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@ALionEye Why is that guy facing the wall in your photo?!

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@ALionEye Looks like the Duke football game last fall!

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@ALionEye Seems like Texas Tech, Wisconsin, and Miznoz moving up are trending that way! 🙏

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@jeff_kuhnen @KedPrince4 QHS class of 83 grad here. The third place game you mentioned was in 1982 after Mendel Catholic snapped Quincy’s 64 game win streak on a buzzer beater in the semi-finals. Payne graduated the year before when Quincy won the state title by 30+ over Proviso East.

@NHeath22 @ALionEye Can’t challenge a travel call

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@srrichey Boo!

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@srrichey Shane Smith and the Saints, Jason Isbell, Drive By Truckers

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@BowserVPSA That would be awesome, Chris! I should do that!

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@TheFieldPass Absolutely not. If he didn’t know then shame on him for not knowing. He had one job-to lead 100ish men in his football program. If he was so blind to not see what was happening and stop it, he doesn’t deserve to be part of our program.

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@Brett_McMurphy So Fitz admits there was hazing in his program. Ignorance is not a defense

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@_Landthieves_ @Illini6781 @CoachDrinkwitz One guy, edge rusher, opted out for SC. One guy, WR, opted out for Illinois. Both got drafted. Illinois didn’t beat SC’s opt out team anymore than SC lost to Illinois’ opt out team.

[Daniel Allen @AllenDanielA1]

@ALionEye Dickie absolutely traveled!
