The Fighting Illini landed a verbal commitment 2018 three-star offensive lineman Kievan Myers (TX) late on Wednesday night. Myers is rated as the No. 736 overall player in the nation by 247Sports.
Myers noted in his Twitter announcement that his recruiting process is still “open to all coaches and schools,” so it remains to be seen how firm of a commitment this actually is. Regardless, this seems like a really nice addition for the Orange and Blue.
“I’m honored to say that I have reached this point in my life where I’m ready to commit. I am truly blessed and all praise goes to the man above.
