One of the scholarships that were offered by the Illini was to Alonso Person. He announced on Twitter that he had received this offer from the University of Illinois. The Illini keep building their recruiting pipeline to the west coast, and Person would be another piece to that puzzle.
Person is a 6-foot-3, 215-pound outside linebacker from Narbonne High School in Harbor City, California. He is rated as a three-star recruit who is the No. 54 player in the state of California, according to Rivals. It looks like Person is a member of the class of 2020 as well.
