Lovie Smith and the Illini coaching staff did a great job building depth and talent with the last few classes. This team is poised to have their best season in about a decade. I fully expect a bowl appearance with the roster we have in 2019.
The quarterback situation is finally settling. We have some options there including a young freshmen sensation in Isaiah Williams. I love what we have at running back this season and into the future. With Rod Smith calling the plays, I think we will be okay.
The defense has some great depth at defensive end as well.
