HOW GOOD IS JUICE?

The Illini were much improved Saturday. However, I am surprised at how much credit is given to Juice Williams. He is a great future prospect and will be the Illini QB for the the next three years. However, even though I wish him well, I must say he is very poor this season. Look at the Big Ten stats–he is at or near the bottom in every stat. He is last with 42 % completion. He leads in being sacked. He does not rate high in any stat. Can’t we wait to brag about him until he does something with stats to back him up. Many fans are seeing the projected Juice and not the one playing now. With so little talent around him I hardly expect him to be at the top of the league. But he has half a season under his belt now. He should be cutting down the fumbling, missing receivers, and running the ball when a pass has been called.
