A guy like Reggie deserves to play in a bowl game...
Still hoping deep down this staff somehow turns it around.

You don't think you might be over reacting a little bit?
I wouldn't argue that. It was on their third drive in which they went down and scored a TD. And it didn't stop them from running 40+ plays in the first half.Purdue did lose its starting QB and top offensive player on same play in 1st quarter. Not saying Illini D played great or didn’t play a role in loss, but those losses definitely impacted Purdue’s offensive stats.

Or, really, anybody that took snaps during the Moeller years.Obviously he doesn't remember the Mark Hoekstra days... oof

Before my time. Moeller I've heard of in tales and legends of suffering.
OK, then have you ever heard of Jeff George, Jr.? Cam Thomas?
Yeah, I thought it was a really solid post until you dropped that comment in there.I regret putting that line in there about Peters being the worst I've seen because its distracted from the point that the team must run more to win.
Yeah I should've known better. My bad.Yeah, I thought it was a really solid post until you dropped that comment in there.
The only way Illini win this game is by rushing the ball 50+ times.
If they hand the ball off to him more consistently, maybe they would.A guy like Reggie deserves to play in a bowl game...

Brian Menkhausen - could play QB and punt!!Dustin Ward and Tim Brasic have yet to be mentioned.
It would be nice to IW play more than just a couple of plays in the wildcat formation where everyone on the defense knows that he is going to get the ball.
I still can’t get over just how easy it would have been this year if the rebuild had worked. We thought 6 wins was an absolute max.
But with how things transpired, a good team with a competent defense and consistent offense could be 4-0 right now with a peer level Minnesota up next.
Then a ragged/under achieving Michigan, has-trouble-scoring MSU, injury riddled PU, down NW and crappy Rutgers would still be left on the docket.
Seriously, if this thing went the way we thought it would, it wouldn’t have been unheard of to win each of those games. Can you imagine if we’d put together a 10 win season?? (Still don’t think we could beat Iowa and Wisky seems way out of our league)
Oh what might have been.
Man, our team looked so much bigger and athletic back then. Zook really could recruit.
