Derek and Isaac react to the news that Luke Ford will not be able to play for Illinois in 2019. They also jump into breaking down new Illini commit Benjamin Bosmans-Verdonk, including his impact as a freshman and if he's better than some of the other late adds Brad Underwood has added to his roster. Derek breaks down Illinois' push for Boston U transfer Tyler Scanlon, while Isaac believes that Scanlon can't be guaranteed playing time with Da'Monte Williams, Tevian Jones, Alan Griffin, Kipper Nichols and Andres Feliz all fighting for minutes. Isaac goes in-depth on Illinois football recruiting, including a tough weekend that saw Illinois lose some top targets. But Illinois did rebound by adding 3-star DT Quinton McCoy and things seem to be heading in the right direction with USC WR Josh Imatorbhebhe and Michigan QB Brandon Peters. Then, hear them launch into a discussion on who are the top-5 most clutch Illinois basketball players since 2000. Does Ayo Dosunmu already crack the list? Derek and Isaac finish up the podcast handing out their Illini of the Week.
