Andy Katz going all-in on Kofi. "Potential first-team All Big Ten. Potential national Freshman of the Year".

#Illini team doctors examined and cleared referee Lewis Garrison. Garrison then went to the emergency room for precautionary x-rays. He's a really nice guy and a great referee, so let's all wish him the best.

Had a must-win feel & Illini get a huge win on the resume against No. 5 Michigan. Kept the trend going of B1G teams protecting home court.

Kofi & Giorgi played like a premier frontcourt tandem in the league. Defensive effort was really good again.
#illini Ayo Dosunmu told Juwan Howard after the game that he went 4-0 against Chicago Vocational, Howard's alma mater, when he was at Morgan Park.

Illinois gets a signature win over Michigan and college basketball gets a weird moment. Here's Illini freshman Kofi Cockburn after a basket and a foul late in the game. Hope this official is okay: pic.twitter.com/lJsspnBzOJ
