based on what? the "talk of the town?"
i don't think so.
Not basing it completely on that. But we all know he wants to transfer early, and he was very comfortable with a family atmosphere and a players coaching attitude, and Illinois provides all of those. And Illinois always has a lot of Early Graduates, and it benefits them nicely. I have called Juice Williams, Arrelious Benn, and now Giles, and Jenkins. I think Giles is a 75% chance, Jelani is a 95% I think. Never count out Zook in recruiting....do count him out in coaching a lot of times though.
You honestly think he is scared of Oku? Is that why he committed to UT in the first place?

Once again proof that you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about...
Giles committed before Oku...so his original commitment was made before he knew he would be competing with someone of equal/greater talent for playing time...
Couple that with the 3 other SEC caliber backs already on the roster and suddenly Giles doesn't appear to be too fond of competition does he?
My bad for not knowing Giles committed before Oku. But there's no reason to believe he is "scared of Oku" haha. 3 All-SEC backs? Who are these guys? I agree they are probably very highly talented but what have they done? Remember when yall said Johnathon Crompton was All-SEC calibur and I said he hasn't proved anything yet?
We have Eric Baker, who has basically taken over the RB role and he is a true freshman then you have Miles and Maddox who are all first year players as well. If Giles was scared of competition he wouldn't go to either school much less an SEC school.
