With Filer and Goebel headed elsewhere, I think that Brandon Green would have to be near the top of the Illini "wish list", and Zook should have a good chance to land him.
DT Reggie Ellis would probably be #2 on the "wish list" - he's got a nice offer list, so landing him will be a challenge.
I also like TE London Davis, who has Illinois in his top five (probably near the top of that list).
QB MarQueis Gray out of Indianapolis would be a nice heir apparent to Juice Williams.
Illinois should have a reasonable chance to sign LB Justin Staples and RB Isaiah Pead out of Ohio. Maybe Glenville CB Donnie Fletcher as well.
Of the current verbals, Graham Pocic really stands out. I'd be kind of surprised if Jack Ramsey (5' 11", 182 lbs) stays at QB, regardless of what Zook has told him.
