An Illinois fan who lives in Lexington tried to recruit Kahlil Whitney while he was on his official visit at Kentucky.
“Big Reece” who goes by @mayntainperfect on Twitter posted a video saying that he yelled “I-L-L-I-N-I” to Whitney and his family while they were riding a golf cart on Kentucky’s campus.
“I just seen Kahlil Whitney and his family turn on a golf cart, and they went straight up this street here,” “Big Reece” said on the video. “As soon as I seen him, I hollered his name out…I just hollered out I-L-L-I-N-I.”
Adam Zagoria confirmed the encounter with Whitney’s father.
