Dusan Mahorcic familiar with Illinois State and ready to prove high-major schools made a mistake

NORMAL — Dusan Mahorcic didn't make an official recruiting visit to Illinois State because of the COVID-19 global pandemic shutting down campuses across the country.

Turns out that really didn't hurt the Redbirds' chances of landing the 6-foot-10 center.

"I've been to the campus more, I think, than any recruit. My girlfriend goes there, so I was always there," he said, laughing. "I didn't see the basketball stuff, but I know what the campus looks like."

Mahorcic, who played at Moberly (Mo.) Area Community College this season, has signed a national letter of intent with ISU.
