The inaugural Cream City Combine that took place this past week featured mainly Wisconsin prospects. For the few Illinois prospects that did make the short trip across the border, they came ready to compete and represent themselves and their state to the fullest.
Most of the camps and combines have been canceled or postponed due to COVID-19, which is why this combine was such a great opportunity for the athletes to showcase their skills and receive valuable instruction from professional coaches/trainers. Players were also able to receive verified results and professional pro-edited film of the following drills:
<ul>
<li style="text-align: left;">40-yard dash with 10/20 split</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Pro Agility</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">L Drill</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Vertical Jump</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Broad Jump</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Powerball Toss</li>
</ul>
Let's take a look at some of Illinois' prospects who attended the Cream City Combine....
<h2></h2>
<h2><em><strong>Saveyon Henderson </strong></em></h2>
OG | 6'5" 307LBS
Crete Monee '21
Henderson is a man amongst boys on the football field. An exceptional run blocker and the last person you want to see pulling as the lead blocker. Has strong hands and the raw strength to dominate one on one battles. Currently holds two offers from Bowling Green and Kent State.

<h2><strong><em>Charlie Nicoll</em></strong></h2>
DL/OL | 6'3" 240 LBS
Bartlett '21
Nicoll is one of my sleepers in this ‘21 class that is primed for a breakout season. Plays the game with a nasty, no-nonsense attitude and is relentless in his pursuit of the ball. Good mobility for a guy his size and moves well tight spaces.

<h2><strong><em>Max Stomberg</em></strong></h2>
RB/OLB | 5'11" 190LBS
Lyons Township '21
Stomberg is a bruising runner that wears defenses out while he gets stronger as the game goes on. Light on his feet with excellent vision. Has a strong base that allows him to fight for extra yards with good leg churn.

<h2><strong><em>Tucker Miller</em></strong></h2>
WR | 5'9" 168LBS
Marist '22
Miller is a supreme athlete who I would consider a prototypical slot receiver. A sound route runner who can stretch the field vertically that’s able to go and get the ball at its highest with his 36” vertical. Has an extremely high ceiling and is definitely a player to keep an eye on in the c/o ‘22

<h2><strong><em>Isaiah Johnson</em></strong></h2>
WR | 6'1" 175LBS
Rockford Christian '21
Johnson is a tall, big-play possession receiver who can stretch the field vertically and is a jump ball maestro. Sure-handed with decent speed and knows how to use his size to be a dangerous red-zone threat.
