Bielema brought up the issue on 'The Triple Option Podcast,' pointing to former Illini running back Josh McCray's move to Georgia

Bret Bielema made some noise yesterday with what he had to say about the portal recruitment of Georgia RB Josh McCray, who left Illinois in the spring transfer cycle. He has since had to add to his comments with a post about it on social media.
