Roundtable: Who will be Northwestern’s breakout player in 2020?

Every season, unproven and inexperienced players step up and exceed expectations. With a poor season last year, there is no shortage of players on this Wildcat team capable of putting together breakout campaigns. Here are our staffers’ picks for who will take their game to the next level in 2020.

One of the receiving room’s bigger bodies, he has shown the ability to make plays, but the consistency hasn’t been there in the past three seasons. Mike Bajakian raved about RCB last week at media availability, and in a new offensive scheme that seems geared toward explosive plays, the team barber may cut up defenses this fall.
