Let's keep the chicago pipeline up and running

 

I think Molinari's connections and Kenya's recruiting abilities will open up Illinois big time for NU.

Molinari may end up being a much bigger and more solid hire than we will ever know. Not just for his coaching, which I think is very good, but for his Chicago and Illinois connections, we now can get a foot in the door and I think our guys are closers when that happens.

 

 

I mean that guy was a college assistant or head coach of D1 basketball in the state of Illinois for 27 years.  Thats longer than some of the posters on here are age wise. 

 

Well ... some of them not named Norm Peterson.  Ahem.

 

Of course, I'm a mere pup compared with jimmykc.

Well then, they are probably smart enough to know that the current situation in Lincoln is more to their son's advantage!

plenty of time before November 2015 like others have said to sign him up.  It will be nice to have a connection already built in with Glynn.

According to 247 Sports:

Nebraska next for four-star Benson

In the middle of a trio of unofficial visits, Barret Benson will check out Nebraska this weekend.

A 6-8, 237-pound post player from Darien (Ill.) Hinsdale South High School, Benson visited Kansas State last weekend and will trip to Iowa State the weekend after this weekend's visit to Nebraska.

He is ranked No. 89 in the Top 247 and No. 161 in the 247Sports Composite.

How do you make 'em last that long?  Mine wear out after 10, maybe 15 years tops!  (Before they get, uhm, re-purposed.)

Norm at my age there are days I just forget to put any on!

 

Now back to topic, Benson looks like he'd be a good addition to the class!

From an April 11, 2015, article:

Benson had a number coaches sitting courtside keeping tabs on his progress. Following a 55-42 win over Team Felton, Benson listed offers from DePaul, Penn State, Oregon State, Indiana, Kansas State, Nebraska, Northwestern and Illinois. He plans to get out and see some schools for unofficial visits during May.

Nebraska Cornhuskers head coach Tim Miles is looking to get stronger up front. What would center Barret Benson do offensively for the Cornhuskers if they could land the prospect?
