Bret Bielema’s thing is “FamILLy,” but Brad Underwood may be infringing on his territory.
While they may never play together at State Farm Center, Underwood keeps adding Clarks to his roster.
Just two weeks after picking up Skyy Clark, the highest-rated Illinois signee in the past two decades, Underwood added Clark’s brother, 2024 guard ZZ.
ZZ committed to Illinois on Monday morning while on his unofficial visit to campus. Monday’s visit was Skyy’s official visit.
As was the case with Skyy’s recruitment, Underwood is clearly building Illinois once again into a national brand. ZZ also had offers from big name schools like national champ Kansas, as well as Creighton and Arizona State.
