There was always something I liked about Illini QB Wes Lunt. I watch a ton of BIG 10 football.
Played on such a crappy team that was turned over 3 times during his tenure. Hurt sometimes.

But he can really throw the ball and place it perfectly to the receivers in stride. Thought he would be a better pro than his college days. Wouldn't be upset if he was picked by the Bills later in the draft.
