Wednesday morning at Camp Rantoul
Twice a day — at noon and 5 p.m. — beat writer Bob Asmussen will check in with updates from Camp Rantoul. E-mail him questions at asmussen@news-gazette.com.
- Late morning rains caused the Illini to rethink their practice plans for today. With the forecast calling for showers later in the day, Ron Zook moved the session to 1:30. The session is scheduled to end at 4 p.m.
- The Big Ten Network crew changed its schedule this morning, moving its bus trip from Champaign to Rantoul up 90 minutes. Illinois is the seventh stop on an 11-school, 3,000-mile trip.
- No word yet on the status of Miami Thomas and Jack Cornell, who suffered leg injuries during Tuesday's practice. As soon as we know, you'll know.
