HAPPENING THIS WEEK, BUT MOST
OF THEM HAVE BEEN POSTPONED OR
CANCELLED-- THAT INCLUDES THE
BIG TEN. THE ILLINI WERE
SUPPOSED TO KICK OFF THE
SEASON YESTERDAY AGAINST OHIO
STATE. BUT NO FOOTBALL THIS
FALL MEANS THEY CAN FOCUS ON
ADRESSING SOME OF THE SOCIAL
ISSUES IN OUR COUNTRY. THE
ILLINI PLAYED A BIG ROLE IN
ORGANIZING A PROTEST ON CAMPUS
THIS WEEK TO COMBAT RACISM.
OFFENSIVE LINEMAN KENDRICK
GREEN SAYS THIS IS SOMETHING
THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE A LONG
TIME AGO.
KENDRICK GREEN: "ME AND MY
TEAMMATES, WE'RE ALWAYS LOCKED
IN, GRIDNING, BUT WE SEE
WHAT'S GOING ON, AND WE SEE
THERE NEEDS TO BE CHANGE. SO
AS A TEAM WE'RE JUST GOING TO
GET READY TO PLAY WHENEVER
THAT IS." CASEY WASHINGTON:
"JUST WITH EVERYTHING GOING ON
RIGHT NOW, IT FEELS LIKE A
TIME TO PUT OUR ATTENTION TO
THE REAL PROBLEMS IN THE WORLD
AND CHANGE THINGS." THE ILLINI
MARCHED ON MONDAY, AND THEN
GOT BACK TO PRACTICE THIS WEEK
LINCOLN LAND CHAMPIONSHIP
CONTINUES FOR ROUND TWO...FOUR
FORMER ILLINI LOOKING TO MOVE
