Welcome back to another HQH update, this one is for Illinois week. After speaking with a handful of sources, I have a general idea of what the availability situation will look like for Illinois on Saturday.
Let's get started.
- It certainly sounds like Donovan Edwards WILL NOT play against Illinois on Saturday. This is a precautionary sit, they want to give him some rest before the big one next week. He has not practiced at all this week so I highly doubt things are expected to change leading up to Saturday.
- Trevor Keegan is also trending toward being out for a second week. His status remains up in the air for Saturday. Leaning more towards doubtful.
- Luke Schoonmaker returned to practice this week as I reported earlier in the week. I haven't received any further word about him so I am taking that as a sign that he's probable for Saturday.
- Was also told that Mike Morris was "good to go" for this weekend, for what it's worth.
- As for the other players who have been banged up, it's a mixture of full practice and light practice for some guys. We'll see what transpires during pregame warmups.
