Markese Stepp - Hopeful to be ready Week 1 Stepp (foot) is still limited in practice but is hopeful to be able to start Week 1 against Illinois, Brian Christopherson of 247Sports.com reports. Impact Stepp missed a lot of time in the spring after undergoing surgery on his foot. The coaching staff will likely be cautious with their transfer from USC to make sure he can contribute from the opening game of the season. Once Stepp is fully healthy he may start to eat into Marvin Scott and Gabe Ervin's touches.
