Brad Underwood and the coaching staff have hit the recruiting trail hard over the past few weeks and really since he took over the reins of this struggling program. Since his takeover of the program, things have felt different in a good way.
I am excited to see the type of talent that the coaching staff can bring in over the next few recruiting classes, but one of the main focuses is getting someone who is taller than Underwood to play in the paint for the Illini. That is actually what he said when Jeremy Werner of Scout posed the question to him.
