Illinois football’s offseason officially began after their loss to Northwestern last Saturday, meaning transfer season is on the horizon. It appears the program has already suffered the first of what could be a few departures, as sophomore wideout Desmond Cain made the following announcement via Twitter.
Statement from Desmond Cain:
"After talking it over with my family it's best to move closer home to finish off my next few years in college! Thank you Illini! Has been amazing these two years I've been here and thank you all for the major support GO ILLINI!
