Chin's 247 list shows he recruited nobody for NE or UIC. Also missing Greg Eboigbodin and  Ayo Dosunmu.
Those lists aren't accurate.

https://247sports.com/Coach/Chin-Coleman-1396/AllTimeRecruits/

Not exactly sure how much Chin had to do with Ayo other than being a former Irvin Fire guy. I think when he came in the process was already moving along.
I am sure he helped. Same with Miller who was an Illinois target since 8th grade when he was in Peoria. Chin certainly couldn't manage his mother. 
I don't think Ebo would be a resume builder. And I doubt he recruited any Top 150 guys at UIC.

As far as Chet- if the list is missing some known Top 150 recruits where he was lead- that would be a good thing.

Maybe we need to see what Sammy Maniscalco is doing these days.

He looks like he might be a player.

Bergeron was a prep school journeyman coach with supposed nationally ranked teams but not sure at what level. Not sure what he offers other than Mitchell for a year.

Frazier was tough kid, and I am sure a hard worker. Not sure he can recruit at this level even Top 150 kids.

Bergeron wouldn't be any different long term than Porter at Mizery? Good/Bad?

Good thing he recruited Samba Kane and Brandon Lieb.

We'll never know whether Paris could've & would've delivered Ayo. He thought he could.

On the other hand, when he learned that Chin was in the mix for a job, he knew it was up for him.

Frazier's resume is better than Chin's was when we hired him. The real objection is stink of the Weber connection?

Well, Ayo did get here and he delivered and no question staff and the team over the last three years deserve credit for getting us back on the map.

Just hope we can stay there.

So Frazier's a done deal then.

I want to get behind this but the Weber stink though...

Yes, sounds like Chester Frazier is unofficially recruiting for Illinois until it can become official

And Gentry might not be very long for Champaign. I don’t know if Underwood can/will fire him, but if he finds a job....outta here

Actually liking the Chester hire, and honestly think he will take OA spot....who fills the others at that point?

Tech message board seems to be worried about how they move forward losing CF?

Yup, would slide right into gentrys seat

This guy Sounds like quite an asshat. Even people outside the program don’t like him. Very surprised this was kept under the rug all year

I dont think so.   They are talking to some more established guys to fill the other hole.
