  An Illinois football defense that lost coordinator Ryan Walters to a new job ahead of the ReliaQuest Bowl earlier this month proved during its postseason game that it still could perform at a high level. Two key reasons for that output will be sticking around for the 2023 season as well. And their presence means "The Law Firm" remains in business. Defensive tackles Johnny Newton and Keith Randolph - who play for the Illini under that banner - announced Monday afternoon via Twitter they will return to coach Bret Bielema's program for another campaign.

Randolph, a Belleville native and former News-Gazette all-state first-teamer, earned All-Big Ten third-team accolades from both coaches and media during the 2022 season, his fourth with the program. He ranked third among Power 5 interior defensive linemen in tackles for loss with 13, adding 41/2 sacks and 51 total tackles in 13 games. The two aided Illinois in allowing an average of 12.8 points per game, 99.8 rushing yards per game and 173.8 passing yards per game last season. - News Gazette Tribune
