Same reason a lot of companies put people on paid/unpaid leave during criminal charges. Every credible university will operate in this manner

The D.A. builds the case. In big cases, they want to make sure they are air tight in order to assure a conviction. 3 months is not long in this case. We are not talking petty theft or a bar fight. And those judging the University, they handled exactly as would be expected. They are going to...

Well....at least this board is not blaming the officiating today...

Can we go one thread without blaming the Refs

That put in at the end of half is completely inexcusable. I can handle a lot of issues with a struggling team, but laziness is not one of them....

It is only name calling if you fall into that category. Be a good fan, represent Illinois well, and this does not apply. If I had said "All Illinois fans are bone heads" that would be wrong and greatly exaggerated.

I agree....Tennessee, California, it has always been the same story. He can recruit but can he coach

We often forget that these are Kids. What exactly did Tilmon do wrong? Losing him hurt, but that happens when you get rid of the coach that recruited him (a move that needed to happen). Then, our bone head fans come out and make statements like “We don’t want him, he doesn’t fit B.U.s system...
