Illinois Football: How Brandon Peters compares to Wes Lunt

Herb Lawrence, the executive producer of Chicago Cubs baseball on 670 The Score, tweeted this sentiment on Monday afternoon. The full tweet said, “Brandon Peters is a broke man’s Wes Lunt. Gimme the kid and let’s get to work with some excitement.”

The “kid” he is referring to is Isaiah Williams, who is the exciting young quarterback commit who has lightning-quick legs and a cannon for an arm. There is no question he would be exciting to see on the football field. But we aren’t looking at that part of the tweet right now. We are only focusing on what Lawrence said about Peters and Lunt.
