#illini legend A.J. Redd’s journey in Champaign was nothing short of spectacular. From St. Ignatius College Prep to Madison Industries, his journey ended quite perfectly.

Last night, I had the chance to speak 1-on-1 with #illini center Zvonimir Ivišić. He all but confirmed his return to Illinois for the 2026-27 season. "I'm not done." I asked him if the culture that this roster built would carry over. "It's gonna stay forever, for sure."

Illinois’ Kylan Boswell emotionally opened up about the harassment from Arizona fans before transferring 3 years ago: “I go on Twitter, the sh*t people say about me, that sticks with you.” Good for him speaking up. This issue isn’t unique to Kentucky.

#Illini freshman David Mirkovic: “We got all the shots we wanted that we make every day.” “Most of the times when we played like this and were winning the rebound battle we were winning the games.”

I asked #illini center Zvonimir Ivisic if he caught the Bosnia/Italy World Cup qualifier: “I had a lot of friends hype from back home.” Z said him and Tomi used to play soccer and still watch. Z has been rooting for HNK Hajduk Split, a Croatian club, since he was born.
