New assistant coach Chester Frazier is already on the recruiting trail for the Illinois basketball program.

A big question for me would be how well can the former Illini guard recruit? Well, Frazier is now dipping his toe into a pretty big pond, as the Illinois basketball team has offered 2023 guard, Marvel Allen.

Allen is a 6-foot-4, 190-pound combo guard from Calvary Christian Academy and resides in West Palm Beach, Florida.
