RATING THE ILLINI PLAYERS

The Big Ten season is almost here. I saw the Illini defeat hapless Coppin State last night. The Illini are unbeaten at 11-0 and are rated 6th in the USA Today/ESPN poll. This is better than anyone expected as they were ranked 17th at the beginning of the season.
My adjusted prediction for success is 29 wins and 6 losses. On November 19th I predicted a 27-8 season.
Here is the order that I rate the players at this moment.
1. Dee Brown
2. James Augustine
3. Rich McBride
4. Brian Randle
5. Jamar Smith
6. Marcus Arnold
7. Shaun Pruitt
8. Warren Carter
9. Chester Frazier
10.Calvin Brock
