On Friday afternoon, Illinois athletic director Josh Whitman issued a statement to announce the reinstatement of Jaylon Tate to the basketball program. The junior point guard was arrested for domestic battery back on March 12, but the court case was dropped by the State's Attorney office on Thursday.
Whitman also provided a brief update on Kendrick Nunn. The university's evaluation of the junior guard is ongoing, and they'll have no further comment at this time. Nunn plead guilty to a single count of battery on Wednesday; he received 18 months of court supervision and 100 hours of community service as part of the plea arrangement.
