Illinois linebacker Ezekiel Holmes started his collegiate career in 2018 at the same time as Dennis Briggs Jr. who was at Florida State. Now both men will close out their long college careers on the same team

Illinois linebacker Ezekiel Holmes and fellow defensive lineman Dennis Briggs Jr have shared a mutual journey.

Both began their college careers in 2018. Holmes redshirted during his freshman year. Briggs Jr. also redshirted in his first year at Florida State. This year they conclude their long journeys on the same team. Their shared experiences are key factors in helping to strengthen a Fighting Illini defense in the midst of a revitalization period."I learn alot from Dennis," he said. "Me and him came into college at the same time. So we're both considered old heads in the group. But me and him talk a lot.

At 24, Holmes and Briggs are two of the oldest players on the team. The oldest is punter Hugh Robertson at30."You get jokes about being however long you have been in college, whether its six, seven, eight, or nine," he said. "But I mean its all love really. That's how I see it as. I see them dudes as like, I wouldn't say my little brothers, but since I've been here longer, I feel like I'm the oldest and feel like I'm the one that looks over a lot of them.
