Scouting The Opposition

There’s a good reason why Illinois is ranked in the top 20 nationally. Everyone’s favorite post player Kofi Cockburn leads the Illini in scoring, averaging 21 points and 10 rebounds per game while shooting over 60 percent from the field. The seven-footer is the only player in the country to average 20 and 10, and is as expected, in contention for several national awards.
