I asked Google. Mr Kahn had been a significant contributor before being publicly shamed by tha faculty Senate. https://share.google/nvr8AuoXhK7CpQ14Q

From @spotter source: “Kate Clancy, a member of the anthropology department, complained about news reports that Khan recently held a “yacht party” attended by politicians she deemed suspect. ‘There are some ethical concerns,’ Clancy said.” So it wasn’t just old labor issues at Flex N Gate, but...

Sounds impressive but he has no authority beyond Ohio. Out-of-state games/schools and the NCAA aren’t subject to his declarations.

I don’t understand how you ever let that happen. Preventing a first down is always the top priority. The punt return is secondary.

This seems like pretty straightforward thing to coach and practice. Why hasn’t it been addressed already?

Two things can happen at the same time, in this case perhaps creating a perfect storm of defensive weakness? It’s starting to look like a desperate experiment gone wrong.

But a good opportunity to invest for next season and not a bad way to use the rest of this one (mostly a lost cause due to lack of defense). We’ll probably win some more and might not go bowling, but will be stronger next year for the investment in Clayton. And others like Barnett. Have some fun...

Could you explain please? How does that affect the choice between the two?

It’s concise. Not much more to be said.

To be clear: YOU DON’T!

You don’t! Stand all you want w/o worries. It’s not like somebody is going to throw you out. If everybody so-inclined started to stand frequently and made a bunch of noise, we might change our culture and everybody else’s expectations.

Let’s add one: 3) The NIL we have isn’t spent optimally in terms of building a balanced roster.

That’s exactly why Shahid Khan was refused an honorary PhD, which in turn led him to withhold big gifts. The Faculty Senate disapproved of one of his companies, Flex N Gate in Urbana, resisting a union organizing effort. The Illini have already been burned by a political purity test, but not all...

My concern isn’t with the W-L record or even where it might lead for the season. I was disturbed by the way we looked as we lost to Purdue. Every aspect of our game just “looked bad”, if that makes any sense. Can you think of anything we did well? On offense, defense, special teams, play...

Like learning it’s important to practice tackling too?
