Luke A can sling it……the Illini have a QB that can really throw the ball. Outside of one poor decision, I’m not sure he could have played much better in his opening game as an Illini. The ball was repeatedly on target and found the hands of his receivers. He also found favorable matchups and stood up and threw into the face of some big hits. He can run too, but I’m not sure if his body will hold up if they run him too much. But the Illini need to get the running game going.
