Illinois Basketball is set to host one of their top front court targets on campus. During an interview with Scout’s Evan Daniels, four-star center Jacob Epperson detailed plans for an unofficial trip to Champaign on Monday. The 6-foot-11 Australian will play his senior season at La Lumiere Prep (IN), which is the same program that produced Jalen Coleman-Lands and, to a lesser extent, five-star commit Jeremiah Tilmon.
Epperson is rated as the No. 57 overall player in the country by 247Sports. He holds other scholarship offers from Purdue, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Utah, and Marquette.
