Rodney Alexander Update

The Knoxville News Sentinel has reported that Rodney Alexander did not visit Knoxville Tennessee, home of University of Tennessee this weekend as planned previously. While I am not sure what to make of this news, it does sound promising for the Illini, unless the trip has just been rescheduled. Other contenters are St. Louis, Indiana and University of Nebraska, which is really a football school.

Maybe he is leaning to Illinois now, since Brian Randle just had to have surgery again to try to correct his groin situation.

Apparently, a decision by Rodney Alexander is expected by Tuesday or Wednesday. If he goes with Illinois, the 2007 class could be in the top 15 or 20 nationally.

Not sure if that comment means Alexander would drag down the class rank, or if it is even lower if the Illini miss him.
