    Looking ahead to 2018

    I don't think 2-10 or 3-9 would be a bust. We are going to have a bunch of underclassman play next year and probably Cam Thomas as QB. People don't realize how hard it is to win a football game when your OL and DL are undersized. We are going to have 17,18, and 19 year olds on the line versus...

    You know what would really be amazing - UT hires Fitz; Krzyzewski retires and Duke hires Collins. Then I would grab a seat at World of Beer in Evanston and fill my cup with the tears of Northwestern fans crying.

    Whoa, UTenn was 4-8 this year with a win over P-5 school Georgia Tech. There is talent on that team and if they get a decent coach they will be 6-6 next year.

    Considering the talent on the roster at the time Lovie was hired and his first recruiting class was a year after he his arrival...I think 6-6 at year 4 would be a reasonably good improvement from where we are today. Besides, there are tenured coaches that occasionally have 6-6 or worse seasons...

    I don't really get all the doom and gloom from the "You Break it, You Buy It" article. I understand Illinois Football was really bad this year but we had an insane amount of true freshman starting or getting significant minutes in the Big 10. Our offensive line was mostly true freshman. What...

    Well, if he commits to any other school than Illinois it is because his growth plates are closed.
