After last week's upset of Kansas, the Illinois Fighting Illini are receiving more attention from high-profile recruits.
Illini coach Bret Bielema refuses to get caught up in the added recruiting attention since the Kansas victory."Recruiting is like shaving. You miss a day, you look like ," Bielema said Thursday. "I've taken that now today. In today's social media world, it's a very up and down world."
"What I think we've learned is to manage and ride the highs and minimize the lows," Bielema said. "But also, there's certain that are high priorities on our list, you kind of know when they're available,when to hit them."
