Cliff Alexander is a high school senior from Chicago who is one of the top basketball recruits in the country — Rivals 150 ranks him 4th, ESPN 100 ranks him 3rd.

Because Mr. Alexander fancies himself a bit of a prankster, he grabbed the Illinois hat, holding it for a brief moment, before donning the Kansas hat and subsequently crushing the hopes and dreams of everyone in Champaign.
