Bob Putnam of the Tampa Bay Times reported that former University of Central Florida Knights quarterback, Pete DiNovo, has committed to play football for Lovie Smith and the Illini. He will be able to play immediately for the Illini and this makes things interesting at the quarterback position.

In DiNovo’s time with the Knights things didn’t go as planned. He was the successor to Blake Bortles but that didn’t end up the way he wanted it to. He was bench and then converted to being a wide receiver before coming back to be a quarterback his final season with Central Florida.
