Senior Bubba Chisholm set to make his mark

Illinois senior guard Andrew Chisholm goes by plenty of names, but his favorite might be one given to him by an Illini fan.

"Somebody called me the Human Victory Cigar," said Chisholm, a walk-on who received a basketball scholarship for the spring semester. "When I get in, the game is already over."

When the season nearly complete, Chisholm's next career is just getting started. The NJCAA academic All-American who had a 4.0 grade-point average during his two-year career at Lincoln Land Community College in Springfield is carrying a 3.7 GPA in finance at Illinois.
