And folks are taking notice, particularly high-profile prospects on the Illini recruiting radar.
"I think it brings a lot of exposure to our program," Illini coach Kevin Hambly said after his team became the third in program history to qualify for the national semifinals and the first since 1988. "The emails and things we're getting from recruits, it's different. It's weird -- that fast that it would be different. And they're excited for us."
