"I received a scholarship offer from the Illini after their lineman camp. I thought I had a pretty good camp. They played me at Defensive End in camp and I felt I got off the ball really well. Then the coaches took me aside and told me that they wanted to offer me a scholarship, and honestly EDGY I turned white as a sheet and almost fainted. I decided this morning to verbal to Illinois. It's pretty obvious that I know alot of the guys on the team, and living in Champaign you can't help but be a fan of the Illini. My Dad also played for Illinois, and when I told them that I was offered by Illinois and was going to verbal today my Mom was in tears."

"I really wanted Illinois all along. I appreciate the other schools who were recruiting me (Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Purdue) but I'm committing to Illinois today!"
