Austin Roberts is working hard to earn his way into one of the most well-respected and admired fields in the professional world. Choosing to study pre-med in college is a pretty serious matter.

But that doesn’t mean the Illinois fullback can’t have a little fun from time to time. Apparently the start of fall camp was the right time to make that known.

Roberts showed up dressed and ready to go for fall camp, but in an outfit that was a little less protective than his football uniform. He did contain plenty of orange and blue, though.

There’s no doubt Roberts bleeds orange and blue. The Crocs are a pretty sweet touch, too.

Roberts enters his senior season with the Illini, having made Academic All-B1G each of the past two seasons. He’s played in 16 games in his career, including all 12 in 2017.
