A look at football players in the Big Ten this spring who are poised to have breakout seasons this fall:
INDIANA: Ohio transfer Kurtis Rourke appeared to have the lead in the QB competition over the returning Tayven Jackson. Rouke went 20 of 30 with 148 yards while working exclusively with the starters in the spring game. He has prototypical size at 6-foot-5 and 222 pounds, a strong arm and the ability to run. He also has experience, with 16 wins the last two seasons.
ILLINOIS: RB Aidan Laughery has made the most of his opportunities with a short-handed running back room. Coach Bret Bielema said Laughery stood out all spring. He ran 11 times for 70 yards and caught three passes for 27 yards in the spring game. Laughery totaled just 16 carries over nine games last season.
IOWA: DL Aaron Graves has made a steady climb the past two seasons and drew rave reviews from defensive coordinator Phil Parker this spring. His playing time is set to increase with the departure of NFL draft prospect Logan Lee. Graves made 37 tackles in 14 games as the backup to Yahya Black.
