On the first day of the signing period yesterday, all five remaining Illinois basketball commits signed their letter of intent. The class of 2018 is now set with six new players coming in after another major roster turnover for the Fighting Illini.
The Illinois class is ranked the 28th best nationally by 247 Sports, and seventh in the conference. The class of 2017 was ranked 30th nationally.
Illinois added some serious length and athleticism at every position with this class. Ayo Dosunmu and Tevian Jones should provide plenty of scoring options to help Trent Frazier and replace the production of Leron Black.
