Illini off and running.
After an off season of anticipation and wonder, the University of Illinois men's basketball team finally got to take the floor and show the fans what they can expect in 2013-'14...and beyond.
Coach Groce has done a fabulous job of making the basketball program relevant again. His recruiting in just over a year and a half is being noticed throughout the NCAA.
Staying on that topic, this friday, Cliff Alexander, the #2 ranked 2014 recruit, will decide if he will go to Illinois, Kansas, or DePaul.
If Cliff comes to Illinois, the recruiting doors swing wide open. Illinois will be going after players once reserved for the Duke's, North Carolina's, Kentucky's...etc.
It's ok to be an Illinois fan again everyone.
Away from sports...
Jan and I took a little jaunt to Abe's Hideout in Mechanicsburg for a late lunch. It was a nice drive with still plenty of color on the trees. And the food was very good.
The small town, off the beaten path places, usually are the ones that surprise you the most. If you live in or around Springfield, do yourself a favor and visit Abe's Hideout.
