I concur with some of this post. We all knew Coach Zook wasn't your X/O go to Coach. He was the best recruiter or 1 of the best recruiters in the nation. He also hired elite Asst. Coaches hands down! Locksley OC, Braun, OC his qb coaches. Etc.. when he lost these coaches to bigger programs or them taking Head coaching jobs, he was done. One of the biggest reasons was Money from our Athletic department. Heck Urban Myer and the Florida teamed thanked him on National TV for their National title after he was fired for going 8-5,
I have always loved the Coach B hire, especially after him spending time with New England and the Giants, and growing older.
on our season this year, teams will have their hand full of our Illini!
