Skyy Clark’s commitment leaves no doubt about Illinois’ future

The Skyy’s the limit! Illinois is Skyy-high!

The puns and plays on words are ready-made. Cheesy cliches aside, Fighting Illini fans should feel enthusiastic about Skyy Clark’s commitment Thursday afternoon.

The 5-star combo guard is the highest-rated signee in the history of the program. Clark decommitted from Kentucky to come to Illinois. And he did it on national television. He unzipped his sweatshirt to reveal his school of choice and it was delightful to see. This wasn’t a Cliff Alexander moment.
