Illini in the lead for JC recruit Dominique Keller

New reports are out indicating that Dominique Keller is leaning toward going to Illinois this fall, rather than Oklahoma State or Oregon State. Dominique Keller is a 6-7 235 pound forward for Lee College in Baytown, Texas, and he has been scoring 30 points a game in a recent stretch of games. Howard and Weber are in the hunt and trying to get his commitment shortly to take Brian Carlwell's scholarship this fall.

Keller sounds like a great scorer and solid rebounder who could help the Illini over the next two seasons. I hope we welcome him to the team very soon. More on Keller from Tupper.

When will they ever learn. Juco players are weak substitutes:

Mike White

Lance Stemler

Rodney Alexander

And Ken "Snake" Norman was awful, as was Kenny Battle, who transferred from NIU (yes, not exactly a JC).
