Earlier this month, the Illinois Fighting Illini put out a key offer in the 2023 recruiting cycle. Brad Underwood and his staff decided to offer 2023 prospect Jeremy Fears, Jr.

Fears comes out of Chicago, Illinois and is currently unrated by 247Sports. The recruiting site also lists him at 6-foot-1 and 165 pounds. Along with Illinois, he also currently has offers from Chicago State, Creighton, DePaul, and Iowa among others.
Illinois currently has no commitments in the program’s 2023 recruiting class. As such, fans will be hoping Fears can start things off for Underwood and his staff in the 2023 cycle. He currently has no Crystal Ball selections on 247Sports.
