Zook at the podium

@slmandel Whoa. Sudden surge of reporters leaving the room signals Ron Zook's arrival.

@edsbs "My wife had me buying appliances this summer." A shady washer and dryer salesman laughs malevolently somewhere in southern IL

@studurando Zook says for the second time that "on paper'' the Illini are better than the group that played in the Rose Bowl

@jppalm First mention of work ethic - Zook talking about Martez Wilson returning from injury.

@ESPN_BigTen Zook: "The championship game is inevitable. I don't think there's any question there will be a championship game."
