as most of you know, Sam Maniscalco's dad, Carl, is coaching the younger Illinois Wolves players...
I found a couple of reports on how they are doing...and it's quite interesting...
"The Illinois Wolves 15U squad may not be at the level of their 16 and under team, but they are very solid.
Big man Jay Simpson, a Champaign Central 2012 prospect, anchors the middle and definitely had the body at 6-foot-8
and thick, but now he seems to be adding some more to his game.
Jacobby Roddy is a 6-foot-4 athlete that grabbed 12 rebounds and has a big time motor. The guards can play a bit too.
Jordan Foster and Landis Farmer controlled the action on the perimeter, and got a little help from 2013 guard Marcus Fair.
Farmer is a Peoria Manual guard that is extremely quick on both ends
The 16U Wolves were also good
Chasson Randle and Jacob Williams were outstanding,
Antonio Drummond was not expected to be in attendance, but he was able to make it for this game before heading home
to attend his grandmother's funeral.
Big man Nnana Egwu struggled on this day, and really never got in sync.
Chasson Randle wants to make a decision after his junior year.
Former Illinois Wolves and Southern Illinois star Bryan Mullins is now playing with the Chicago Bulls Summer League team
The Peoria Irish won by 42 and 29 points on their two games on Thursday. They are hoping for more competition on Friday.
Eastern Illinois recently had Decatur's Jarrod Oldham down for a visit and also like Rayvonte Rice quite a bit.
The biggest drama on Friday may be the Schmidt brothers. Will they attend the event? Will Chicago Hoops Brian Stinnette let them in?
The Illinois Wolves 17U team is expected to have a 7 footer from Belgium playing with them this month." ..
