1). You’re kidding yourself if you don’t think all big time programs weren’t cheating to a certain extent. You would be surprised how many people would turn their heads the other way if it promoted winning.As an Arizona alum (and grad asst. coach), I cringe at the thought of Sean Miller EVER becoming associated with an Illini basketball program of which I have been enthralled since the mid 1950s. That Whitman would entertain the thought of bringing a proven cheater into the program is unacceptable and has never been entertained by him to my knowledge and never should be. At my age, BU may be the last Illini coach of my time and I am fine with that....but Miller replacing him could be a death sentence for the program regardless of number of wins. If you need to cheat to win, or condone it, you should not even play the game....am I right Michigan?
2). Do you think Ron Zook got top rated wide receiver Aurelius Benn and other top southern recruits to come to Illinois because they loved winter weather better? Too bad he couldn’t coach, we could have built something.
3). Cheating is legal now, so why not get one of the best?
