Anybody else think the Zook era would be a great time to bring back Tailgreat? I have nothing but good memories about those Saturdays. Anybody know how many years it lasted? How about photos?

it's a great time to bring back a lot of Great old things. Like the rose bowl era unis. It is nice to be excited about Illinois football again. Zook is really busting his a88 out there on the recruiting trail. I am confident his first full class (2006) will be a huge step up from what we are used to. Hopefully we will get a lot out of the talent we already have, as well. I am curious to see how Zook will utilize our present athletes, and which QB he leans towards.
How long til spring practice starts? Late march? I remember the spring game is april, and open practices are usually early april/late march.

Sounds like the Zooker is getting some great verbal commits from some good talent in Georgia and Florida. Keep'em coming Zook....
