Two of Illinois' most important front court pieces are returning to the practice court. John Groce recently informed CBS Sports' Jon Rothstein that sophomore forward Leron Black (knee) has been cleared for full-contact drills. Additionally, senior center Mike Thorne Jr. (meniscus) has finally been given the green light to begin non-contact workouts.
