It was another big official visit weekend for the Illinois football program, and the first commitment domino fell on Sunday evening.
Coming into the weekend, the Illini had 11 commitments for 2024 and a ranking of No. 42 in the country. While most of the recruits who visited this past weekend were from the 2024 class, Illinois also had a few who were eyeing the program from the class of 2023.
Illinois’ class of 2023 also has a national ranking of No. 42 in the country. This special group of players got even stronger over the weekend, as the Illini added another wide receiver to the mix.
