Illinois Picked to Finish SECOND In Big Ten By KenPom | Josh McCray's Incredible Story

Locked On Illini - Daily Podcast On Illinois Fighting Illini Football & Basketball

Can the Illinois Illini basketball team rise to the top of the Big Ten this season? With Ken Pomeroy's latest rankings placing Purdue at #10 and Illinois at #23, the Big Ten landscape is more competitive than ever. Indiana's surprising debut at #39, despite their strong roster, raises questions about their potential. Meanwhile, Rutgers, with top recruits Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey, sits at a puzzling #63. The depth of the Big Ten promises a thrilling season with little separation between teams.

Josh McCray steps into the spotlight for the Illinois Illini football team as Kaden Feagin's injury opens the door for him to shine as the starting running back. His fit with the current offensive line could be a game-changer for the Illini's strategy. Join us for an engaging discussion on the Big Ten's basketball rankings and Illinois' football prospects.
