Top 5 Illinois Basketball Recruiting Targets for the Class of 2025

The Illinois basketball coaching staff has been working hard to secure top talent for the class of 2025. With the transfer portal changing the recruiting landscape, the Illini staff has done a great job balancing both the portal and incoming freshmen. I believe they can pull in a top-10 recruiting class for 2025. We already have one player committed, and there are several options left on the board.

1. Jeremiah Fears

I know that Jeremiah Fears is already committed to the Illinois basketball program. He is a great get, but with so much power in the hands of the players, coaches need to keep on commits until they get into the building and suit up. Fears is a 6-foot-3, 175-pound combo guard from Compass Prep out in Arizona. He is rated as a four-star recruit and ranked as the No. 44 player in the class of 2025. He is also the No. 7 combo guard in the country and the No. 2 player coming out of Arizona.

“Fears is a solid commitment, and there hasn’t been any wavering, but you better believe teams are going to back up the Brinks truck in hopes of prying him away from Champaign.”

The Illinois basketball coaching staff is also targeting several other top players for the class of 2025. With the transfer portal being so prevalent, coaching staffs have had to put more time and attention into players looking for a new home. However, the Illini coaching staff has done a great job balancing both the transfer portal and potential incoming freshmen.
