Illinois is fighting to keep Orlando Antigua in Champaign.
Two sources have told KSR that the Illinois Men’s Basketball program has made a “substantial” counteroffer to help prevent assistant coach Orlando Antigua from leaving the team to accept an assistant coaching position with Kentucky. Matt Jones is reporting that if Kentucky were to match the offer, Antigua would likely take the job with UK, making him the highest-paid assistant in the country.
