I totally agree! Our stadium needs to trap more crowd noise than it does. Does anybody else think that our two major sports venues do little to trap crowd noise than SFC and GMS do?

I don’t get it. Do they not realize they are making things look bad on TV as a student section. Is there more interactive cheers they can do during the game? Seems like the basketball student fans are more involved in the games than the football student fans. It was a close game from start...

Could we maybe incorporate some elements of this logo on our helmet? Maybe put the ‘I’ in the front of the star?

Yes! Should be our main helmet logo. Maybe put the ‘I’ on the back of the helmet at the base of the stripes like Oregon has done on their helmet.

If he doesn’t play will he get an extra year? I can’t remember a team whose primary NIL transfers don’t play during the season.

The lettering should be blue with white trim like the originals back in the 80s not white with blue trim. Nonetheless I’m glad we are finally wearing them!

Who is old. Cubs need to get younger!

It’s apparently the 100th anniversary of the Chief when the Ducks come to Champaign in a couple of weeks. Gameday Spirit is having a sale on Chief items. Do you think the university does anything to recognize that milestone or is it just in the past? Would be soooo cool if he did one last...

I like the arched ILLINI always used on senior day idea. I still think it’s our best helmet design by far. What if we put an ‘I’ behind it somehow?

Hopefully Clayton is the QB 1 for next season and you don’t have to pay a ton of money for a transfer QB. This would free up more money for the defense. Also, was Hauck ever a DC or was he just a head coach who knew the 3/3/5 defense and how to teach it. Teaching it versus calling it would...

John Madden always said, never take the points off the board, even if it is a field goal. How many times has it come back to bite a team that didn’t take the points?

Been thinking this way for years. We have no home field advantage because our fans don’t know when to cheer and make some noise. It’s like they are watching an opera or something. Very frustrating when you compare other fan bases to ours. Showing up is one thing, cheering is another. So...

Do players still get paid NIL money when they don’t play? This is not sustainable, especially the big money players who aren’t playing. Seems like there ought to be a provision where if you only play a percentage of the games you get a percentage of your NIL.

I think our block I is too tall. If it was decreased to 75% of what it is now it would look better. Also if it had a circle around it like we use to have with our Illini logos that would be even better.
