Tyler Griffey, a 6-foot-8 junior from Lafayette (Mo.) High School in the St. Louis area, gave the Illinois staff an oral commitment on Wednesday, multiple sources said late Wednesday. Griffey can sign a national letter of intent with the Illini in November.

The forward is expected to join three guards in Bruce Weber's 2009 recruiting class. Sterling's Joseph Bertrand, Warren's Brandon Paul and Peoria Central's D.J. Richardson committed to the Illini in the fall.
