Yes. Also Chico Vaughn, who used to (and maybe still does) hold the all time high school scoring record for Illinois. I saw Chico play with Lenny Wilkins and Bob Pettit for the Hawks in the mid ‘60’s.
I went there for a Halloween weekend back in the 80s, but I, uh, don’t really remember much about it.
Braden Jones from the football team also transferred there, played a bit, and spent some time on the Vikings squad as a TE.
Last I heard he eventually went to medical school and became a doctor. So it’s not quite the black hole educationally that some posters are making it out to be.
Good luck BB. We’ll all miss your hair and positive attitude during your time as a Wildcat.
