Here are some of some of the Illini key players and how the performed in the exhibition.
Kofi Cockburn
It is easy to see why Brad Underwood made sure to get Kofi Cockburn. Kofi proved that he was a man amongst boys on Friday night. He had a double-double and will see many more of these this year. He proved that he got in great shape and is ready to play major minutes for the Illini. Kofi will be very hard for any team to stop inside. If he can keep that mid-range jump shot going, he is in for great success as a freshman.
