We are all in for the wild ride, as the Illinois basketball team has added a player midseason.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL: DEC 09 Illinois at Ohio State | Icon Sportswire/GettyImagesIt is not every day the Illinois basketball team can add a commitment and get that player to play right away.

On Monday afternoon, the Illini did just that. Jonathan Givony of DraftExpress reported that Illinois has landed the commitment of Toni Bilic.

According to the reports, Bilic will join the program here shortly and will be available to play immediately. This is a nice boost to an Illinois roster that was needing it after a tough loss to Nebraska
