CHAMPAIGN — Illinois redshirt sophomore wide receiver Mikey Dudek had surgery Tuesday in Florida to repair the torn ACL in his right knee.
How did it go?
“I’ll find out after we get back (from Tuesday’s practice), but I assume it all went well,” Illini coach Lovie Smith said.
While Dudek is expected to miss the 2016 season, Illinois offensive coordinator Garrick McGee isn’t counting him out just yet.
“I’m not sure he’s out for the season,” McGee said Monday. “I know that he’s a really hard worker. I know that he has a great attitude and great parents.
