[QUOTE="sbillini, post: 1956249, member: 10496"] I appreciate the passion of your stance. But, to support this stance, you keep referring to FSU as the valid comparison for the Illini. As I said last time, it’s entirely an apples and orange comparison. This has been discussed umpteen times on this board. The structure that FSU has is night and day different than what Illinois (and pretty much every other sports program) has/had. It’s not a valid comparison (and that’s on top of the fact that treating all native Americans as a single, unified entity is entirely invalid as well). [/QUOTE]
