We didn’t need too many players for the class that just came in. Illinois had a lot of talent coming back from the 2019 campaign, so there weren’t too many scholarships available. While that is great news for the upcoming season, it also means the class of 2021 is going to need to be big.
The Illini are losing a lot of talent after the 2020 season. All positions are going to be important as far as building depth and talent. But I want to focus on wide receiver right now. That is an area this coaching staff needs to address.
