Hell, yes!Any idea on when we expect Whit to commit? He's got a Miami visit on Saturday. Can we take Corhen, Oweh, and Whit?
Lots of times they don't stay til the end. Hope they left about 30-9.They got to see a WIN! Nice! Although I think in the past they often only took in a half or so, but I may be wrong.
OK, outside the continental US. And the Puerto Ricans don't get to vote for president, so there's that.:0 Also, you forgot King Kofi who I suspect has a large following in Jamaica, mon.We only have one international player in BBV. Our Puerto Rican players are US citizens.
True, my mistake.Wrong. Kofi is Jamaican.
I’m a little disappointed that we don’t have more as Illinois has one of the largest international populations among US universities. I believe there’s only one new international student athlete on campus this year across all sports. It would be great if we could build a reputation as a leader in that respect.and considering Giorgi just left I think a fairly good argument can be made that we're making a nice play for "overseas" guys.
It's the going over water part that is critical which is why the Canadian pipeline thing has never worked out.
Especially with our connection to China. Do Chinese student athletes play for foreign universities?I’m a little disappointed that we don’t have more as Illinois has one of the largest international populations among US universities.

Leaving out Kofi was my mistake. I get where you’re coming from. I hope too that Illinois can build a culture where Latino players feel at home. I would also hope that international players would feel welcomed as well. I just think you have to be careful using terminology that does not acknowledge them as American. The fact that they can’t vote in US elections and that PR is not a state is our bad.OK, outside the continental US.

Illinois has one Chinese student athlete on the Women’s Golf team.Especially with our connection to China. Do Chinese student athletes play for foreign universities?

Covid has a huge impact on that issue across all schools.I’m a little disappointed that we don’t have more as Illinois has one of the largest international populations among US universities.
