Creighton has been on Alex real hard this weekend. Been at all his games.

Looks like another one of our priority targets. I like it when the staff targets their priorities early, and this kid could blow up quite a bit more on the national scene - 6-8 as a Frosh with developing skills. Hopefully a big season this year keeps us in contention and helps land him.

Why not just get 2015 shored up right away too?

Absolutely! This was key in getting Hanson and Hegner sign for our staff over Missouri, Marquette, Iowa State, Wisconsin, Gonzaga and other schools involved with these two.

From the 9/17 Minneapolis paper:

Alex Illikainen (2015, Grand Rapids) had been in the conversation for unofficials to Minnesota last weekend but apparently did not. Fred Hoiberg from Iowa State visited Grand Rapids on Friday. Iowa and Creighton are supposed to be in town the next two days to see the sophomore forward. He will unofficially visit Oregon this weekend, per James. James also said Georgia, Wisconsin and Indiana are expected to visit in coming weeks.
