This is high school football not college but I found it Illini related and utterly pathetic. Miles Smith is the head coach at a high school in Mesa, AZ. He kicked his QB off the team for calling an audible. The former OC encouraged the QB to make audibles when appropriate, but apparently Smith...

My lasting memory is Kofi punching a ref in the face

Our chances of a win here are somewhere between 0% and 1%.
