Could a Hawkeye become an Illini?

CHAMPAIGN — Tomas Woldetensae's committmen to newly-crowned national champion Virginia took another option off Illinois' board when it comes to the Illini filling out their 2019-20 roster. Woldetensae's appeal was clear. The No. 9 overall junior college recruit in the country flashed lights out three-point shooting ability in his final season at Indian Hills (Iowa) Community College.

Woldetensae to the Cavaliers, though, means Illinois has to look elsewhere. And maybe not far.

Iowa's Isaiah Moss announced his intent to transfer on May 2, and he's readily available in the transfer portal. The 6-foot-5, 208-pound guard was a three-year starter for the Hawkeyes.
