Illinois commit Jeremiah Tilmon has requested a release from his NLI, per his Instagram page. Top-25 recruit.

A really good big man back on the market.

PS. I wish i could edit the misspelled headline.

We will get Bamba so it doesn't really matter for us but lets hope he doesn't go somewhere good .

Have a feeling this is right...Conzo will have them top 10 really soon..dont understate him...he did a great job at UT and recruited top ten classes at Cal. Missouri and ILL are home territory...
Yeah. I believe this happens, which will be even more enticing for Knox to join Porter and Tilmon.

we have our big man in bamba, however he may request his release but they don't have to give it. and him being a top big man in the class. I doubt Illinois will let him have it.

Martin had top talent at Cal and didn't do crap with it.

Not really true. That team with Jaylen Brown could have done some damage in the tourney, but they had a rash of injuries right at the end of the year. Brown was about the only player they had that was healthy.

Has to be Mizzou. Cuonzo Martin is from East St. Louis. Tilmon is from East St. Louis. East St. Louis is closer to the Missouri campus than the Illinois campus. 1+1=2.

This will tell us how the UK staff really feels about getting Bamba. If all of a sudden you hear "Cal to visit Tilmon", then start worrying. If all we hear are crickets, then all is well.

I don't know but it's just odd how all of a sudden everyone wants to go there.Something stinks.

Who is everyone? They have a 2 man recruiting class right now ranked outside the top 40. If they get Tilmon, they will jump up but that will still only be 3 recruits. I don't believe the Knox/Mizzou hype at all tbh.

Wondering if Tilmon might be looking at Missouri with Knox and Porter.

Tillman is going to Mizzou.

Personally, I'm thrilled to see the most embarrassingly awful SEC team become a contender literally instantly. Not scared of them, but I think they'll be middle of the pack or better and possible Tourney team with Porter and Tillman.

If Rabb, Brown, Byrd, Matthews and company was barely a top 25 squad that couldn't get out of the first round, I'll just wait and see what this (so far) one man dream class at Mizzou amounts to.

https://basketballrecruiting.rivals...eremiah-tilmon-asks-for-release-from-illinois

"Should Tilmon receive his release, there will be no shortage of suitors. Kansas and Saint Louis were heavily rumored to be potential destinations when Tilmon waffled in the spring. This time around, though, look out for Missouri if and when Tilmon gets his release.

New head coach Cuonzo Martin is a native of East Saint Louis and has deep ties in the community that could be very helpful in landing Tilmon."

EM-EYE-ZEE!

He's going to Mizzou, bub. That was the entire purpose of his release.
