[QUOTE="Fighter of the Nightman, post: 1543107, member: 590800"] I'll go with a B, without getting too detailed with it. After the EMU loss, it was a D ... given the circumstances and how little we can realistically expect from this program [I]until it is properly built back up[/I], I think the four-game winning streak was literally worth two letter grades. Why? It made us not a joke to other teams' fanbases, and this is a more-than-decent barometer for our standing among your average recruit. His first goal upon being hired was to restore even the tiniest pride in "Illini Football," and that has happened. This year will be the year that makes or breaks him, however ... COVID derailing aside, we need a 6-win season at least, and maintaining momentum would likely require 7. [/QUOTE]
