Joe Henricksen of the Chicago Sun Times has a couple interesting articles about past prep stars from Illinois, considering only their accomplishments while in high school. He obviously did a bit of research to get all these past names and accomplishments, but it is interesting to see that some had great college and pro careers, and some didn't after high school. There are no Bradley guys on the list, though Mitchell Anderson, Voise Winters, Hersey Hawkins, Anthony Parker, and Marcellus Sommerville had great high school careers, they didn't make the list.-
