We will no doubt have an experience advantage, but it remains to be seen if our freshmen will be better than everybody else's.

Just like everybody else's freshmen.

Doesn't mean they're any better than everybody else's freshmen who are redshirting. I also think they've played some of the freshmen ahead of players who are actually better either to get them to develop faster or to send a message to recruits/players that aren't part of the future. I do think...

My main point is that everybody loves to bend over backwards to make excuses for this staff when not everything has been out of their hands. The staff has been pretty miserable at everything they can control, and it's concerning. Where's the improvement? Are we better right now than we were 6...

So why haven't any of the upperclassmen developed enough in 2 off seasons with this staff to beat out any of the freshmen?

Only if we're still bad.

I feel like he has to be one of our better playmakers with the other rbs and Turner at wr. They should probably try to get all of them on the field at once IMO. Maybe Corbin in the slot?

It does seem like the classic "we'll give you a chance to play QB (but really you'll be playing defense in a year)"

Sucks that the refs gave this game away, but the team showed an impressive amount of improvement since the WMU game.

Is Jeff George Jr. the most hyped 2 star prospect we've ever had? Maybe he really is leaps and bounds ahead of all the other QB's on the roster, but there has been nothing objective that has indicated that to me.

Hell, I graduated in 2013 and the campus is already way different from when I was there. It's weird, man.

RIP Illini Inn and White Horse.

We need to find a quality back up in case Vaughn goes down for any amount of time.

This is what it boils down to me.

I think we have a good shot at Oladipo. Awodiran seems gone, though.
