Stock & Shop - Wide Receivers

A robin redbreast in a cage, puts all heaven in a rage. A wide receiver without a qb, needs a new offensive coordinator to be set free.

The first line is from William Blake, who was probably not thinking of Mike Dudek running free with Chayce Crouch or Jeff George Jr. at helm. The second line is from me, and I’m still aggravated at the combination of Illinois quarterback play and Garrick McGee’s futile effort. Turn over the quarterback room and enter Rod Smith, from the Rich Rodriguez tree of explosive offenses and tempo, and future Illini wide receivers have a new outlook.
