CHAMPAIGN — Zion Griffin's recruitment had just one school involved at one point this past spring: Division II St. Cloud State. The rising senior at Hinsdale South added a few low-major Division I offers after the April evaluation period, and the mid-major programs started getting involved earlier this month.
Griffin's recruitment has hit another level with the final July evaluation period coming to a close Sunday. The 6-foot-5, three-star small forward added an Illinois offer to his list early Sunday afternoon to go with an Iowa State offer last week and seven other high major programs interested according to City/Suburban Hoops Report's Joe Henricksen.
