Safe to say the #illini like freshman linebacker Grant Beerman "That's my big baby, right there. Man, I don't know if there's a ceiling for that guy," said coach Archie McDaniel. He's 6'3, 240 pounds and can "freaking run." Has improved strength since arriving in Champaign.

Bielema calls Grant Beerman one of the best inside linebackers #Illini have recruited since he got here. “An absolute dream.” Says he’s unsure if Beerman will play this fall, they don’t want to burn a year of eligibility for just a handful of snaps.

Hey Cincinnati Football! I found our new NIL sponsor and can already see the tagline now - "The Bearcats secondary is so soft that even the Pillsbury DoughBoy approves!"

I know Cincinnati Football had high hopes for Golday this year, but he's struggled in pass coverage far too often tonight and even looked confused at times. But biting on the fake from Raiola & leaving the slant wide open for a TD probably just ended any hopes for us to pull out a win.

Grant Beerman is FAST. Freshman linebacker will still probably redshirt this season, but no reason not to get him in for his four games. #Illini

Bret Bielema: "I've been in this game a long time, I've coached inside backers my whole career, Grant Beerman is probably one of the most talented linebackers I've ever signed." Says the fact that #Illini hadn't used him before today speaks to the depth at that spot.

#illini Bret Bielema said top freshmen LB Grant Beerman, DB Xanai Scott and WR Brayden Trimble could start playing more. Why? They’re developing well & confident of NCAA rule change, which would allow 5 full seasons of playing time Right now, you get just 4. Illinois vs

It doesn't matter if we win this or not. Wes Miller has to go. Just a complete collapse that's indicative of his entire tenure here. #Bearcats
