Matt Fradin

Comcast Corp. VP | Sr. dep. general counsel | Class of 1993

As college career highlights go, it's tough to top Matt Fradin's one shining moment with roundball royalty.

“I remember going to Illini basketball games. I had season tickets all four years with some friends, getting closer to the action each year," says the senior deputy general counsel for Comcast Corp., who earned his UI bachelor's degree in finance in 1993.

“I recall one game where we beat a top 10-ranked Big Ten opponent and stormed the court afterward. I somehow ended up running up to Lou Henson and he gave me a high five."

“Cheering on the Illini sports teams was so exciting and fun in those days.”
