You can’t win ‘em all.
Michigan State Spartans target and five-star center Jeremiah Tilmon has committed to the Illinois Fighting Illini.
After a long recruiting process and much thought and I'm blessed to announce that I am staying home #illini pic.twitter.com/z8QhSNWEZ7

Tilmon is a native of Illinois so it’s not surprising he stayed home in spite of an offer list laced with college basketball blue bloods. The 6’11, 220-pound prospect is the No. 23 overall player in 247Sports’ class of 2017 composite rankings and had offers from North Carolina, Kansas, MSU, Indiana, Texas and UCLA.
