Wisconsin just secured the commitment of IMG Academy PG D'Mitrik Trice. I'm assuming this means that they are no longer pursuing Charlie Moore which is good for the 'Cats.
PG Trice commits to Wisconsin

Apparently Groce at Illinois recently met with Moore and is pushing hard.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Illini landed Moore. Although if I were Moore, I'd be cautious with the stability of the Groce staff. Heads could easily roll if they don't make the NCAA next year.
It's going to be a very interesting recruitment.
The Illini already signed a quality PG in Te'Jon Lucas once they lost out on Moore the first time. It's one thing to sell an incoming PG on playing with an upperclassmen PG (which they already have - albeit injury prone - in Tracy Abrams), but to convince to Charlie to share the back court with another freshman as well?
Groce has his work cut out for him.
EDIT: Seems like Georgia Tech is now in the mix too, which I thought was prohibited with Josh Pastner leaving Memphis to take the opening in Atlanta. Weird.
