Wonder if BU decided to share there could be a Liddell of Kofi in CU next season?
Catan. All day, er’yday.I play Dungeons and Dragons. Does that count?
I'm on a college sports fan message board every day...does that count?I play Dungeons and Dragons. Does that count?
And now, for a limited time only, which schools Assistant Coaches should pick.Yeah who has time for games when you can argue about the schools teenagers pick?
my personal favorite: "unimplemented features"Am disappointed. I used the phrase "necessary but insufficient condition" recently and you didn't bite.
How about a twofer from the hip hop community?I feel like we need more posts with “big boy” in them. We were doing really well for a while but they trailed off and it’s getting concerning.
All we really had to do is buy his wife an apartment in the CaymansNow that there is a little quiet time here, you can almost see how this played out. OA is making something a little north of 450, the season is over and suddenly UK is down a couple of assistants. Easy, offer OA 650 to move back to UK, you know he will take it after all it is a 30% increase.
I would have loved to have been in the room when UK's AD got the call from OA's agent telling him what Illinois was offering. I would have loved to have been in the room when Whitman told the agent what we were offering. Even Ky Sports Radio called it a "substantial offer".
THE LAST THING ON EARTH THAT KY WAS EXPECTING WAS WHAT WE DID AND I'M LOVING IT.
We are not the same program as we were 14 days ago. Assistant coaches are calling each other to talk about what Illinois of all people were willing to pay for quality.
So that’s where we can get an actual Loyalty beach house.All we really had to do is buy his wife an apartment in the Caymans

It does and doesn’t matter. Football and MBB are the moneymakers for the athletics department. As a whole though, it’s best for the entire program to be strong, and JW’s non-revenue hired have been less than stellar. Boosters see this and I know some aren’t happy about it, and haven’t been happy with JW as a whole. Josh would really benefit from hiring a high level assistant AD to help with the non-revenue hires so that he can focus on the revenue sports and fundraising.Most of it just doesn’t matter. An AD’s three most important jobs are hiring the football coach, hiring the men’s basketball coach and fundraising. The rest is just details.

It's not that non-revenue sports "don't matter," but it's hardly worth getting hung up about this early in a young/promising AD's tenure when he clearly seems to get more structural issues (like fundraising capabilities, vision for the program and managing the athletic department's perception) in a way that his two predecessors utterly lacked. As someone who doesn't live in Champaign, I really only follow football, basketball and occasionally baseball/volleyball if they are on TV or are playing well. I'd love for Illinois to be good at everything, but there was a stretch during MT's tenure, I think, where we were like dominating all of these country club sports and a joke in the revenue ones. NOT a good look, haha. And that is what I like about JW, and what I suspect a few regulars at the country club in Champaign are annoyed by: he is trying to make us more like an Ohio State or a Michigan and less like a private school in the way we approach big money athletics.
Likely paused until funeral arrangements for Terrence Clarke are settled. Or at least very quiet behind the scenesIs the Illini vs Kentucky bidding war over or is it just on pause?
I believe we're at this point in the fight:Is the Illini vs Kentucky bidding war over or is it just on pause?

It's actually much easier to win a Loyalty beach house betting against someone here who drank too much orange kool-aid than it is to buy one.So that’s where we can get an actual Loyalty beach house.
Now that OA is back from vacation, look for finalization shortly,
Vague much?Not over, according to something I heard last night, which I will label as strictly a rumor from a friend of mine who said he was around Cal yesterday (we both live in LA). Given the providence of the info I won't repeat the comment, or label it good/bad, other than to say the comment suggests that the situation remains ongoing.
