A former MLB draft pick is now suiting up for Illinois football—talk about a wild career switch! William Holmes, once a fifth-round pick for the Angels, has traded the pitcher’s mound for the gridiron and is set to make an impact as an edge rusher for the Illini. Alongside him, wide receiver Alex Perry brings serious size and speed after a standout season at FIU. With these new additions, Illinois is shaking up its roster in a big way. What do you think—can these transfers help the Illini make a run in the Big Ten? #Sports #IllinoisFootball #TransferPortal
