Rich Semrau cleared for extra season and won't transfer

Some news out about Semrau. He qualified for the medical redshirt last year, so his last season with the Illini will be 2010-2011. This allows him to play a senior year with Jereme Richmond when he is a freshman. Semrau does not plan to transfer, but intends to build up his game so that he can play. After watching him in Maui, I think he looks like he has the body to play 4 or even 5 in the next year or so. He is much stronger looking than Tisdale, Cole, Davis, etc. Article
