Pritzker puts Illinois High School basketball on hold

I would agree it is the first of many star players that will transfer out of state. Scholarships may depend on exposure of the players. I wonder how hard it is to transfer during the school year.
 
It's looking more like the 2020-21 high school basketball season might not happen after all. Recall that the IHSA defied Gov. Pritzker's orders to push winter sports back until spring, and they announced basketball season would start Nov. 30. But after threats from Pritzker, many, though not all Illinois high schools backed out of the winter season.
The IHSA met today and backed down. They decided to put winter sports on hold starting tomorrow (Nov. 20), and take the issue up at their next meeting on Dec. 2. Teams cannot practice, and all conditioning and open gyms are on pause. Only outdoor workouts in groups of 10 or fewer are allowed.
So basketball, along with other winter sports, is now in limbo. Nobody seems to know what to do, or what to expect will happen. With the Covid crisis only getting worse by the day, it seems unlikely that HS basketball will happen in Illinois.
