Austin Alexander, a 4-star cornerback out of Chicago, announced his top 5 list Saturday afternoon, including a trio of B1G programs.
Illinois, Indiana and Purdue all cracked the list for Alexander, as did Kansas and Iowa State. And it’s obvious he wants to stick at least semi-close to home, because he holds some impressive offers from USC, Nebraska, Michigan, Michigan State, Duke and Wisconsin, to name a few.
Alexander, who stands at 6-1, 165 pounds, is set to enter his senior year at Marian Catholic HS in Chicago.

Alexander has a few official visits on the docket, including one to Illinois on June 23. He’s also set to visit Kansas on June 9.
And he’s a highly rated prospect, too. Alexander is considered to be the No. 410 prospect in the nation, as well as the No. 40 cornerback and the No. 9 player out of Illinois.
