“I can’t be held responsible // We were merely freshmen”
It’s the week after the Illinois/WIU football game. Lovie Smith’s program has been defined by the youth movement thus far. Saturday night, we watched a bunch of freshmen, sophomores and walk-ons get their second win of the season. Now I’m sitting down to write the first installment of the Illinois Basketball roster preview. On who? That’s right.
The Freshmen.
This is the second straight year the football and basketball teams have been defined by an unprecedented amount of freshmen contributors.
True freshman to true freshman and its Groundhog Day.
