There has been so much attention paid to the Illini and who they are offering that the momentum has me thinking the class of 2019 could be one of the best in program history. With Marquez Beason already committed, it will be interesting to see who the next big-time recruit will be to pull the trigger and commit to the Illini. Could that player be Jahleel Billingsley?
On Tuesday night, Billingsley decided to take a step in the direction of making a commitment. He cut his list down to just seven programs and included TCU, Penn State, Florida, Ole Miss, Michigan, Ohio State and Illinois.
