The Illinois basketball program is just over two weeks removed from receiving some bad news.
While Brad Underwood was at an event for the Illini a couple of weeks ago, he mentioned that the program might be without newcomer Andrej Stojakovic. This news sent shockwaves through the Illinois fanbase, and there was a ton of speculation running rampant.
On Friday, those worries were put to bed. According to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports, Underwood has said that Stojakovic is going to be back on the court and should be fully cleared for all basketball activities in a few weeks.
