    That is a given, and the part that most excites me about Bret. He’s going to be focused in the direction of the program and get results game day.

    Good point, Lovie needed to be doing better at this point. I’m looking forward to seeing what happens when he finishes out the staff. I wanted the 2021’s to be as hyped as I am about the Beilema Hire.

    Not to be negative Nancy, but the only thing I’ve seen Bielema do that Lovie couldn’t do is hire a Linebacker coach. These recruits and transfers seem right in Lovie’s wheelhouse. Player retention has been good for Bielema. Chevy Brenson would be a welcome (re)addition at this point IMO.

    Fleck has decommits often this is not a bad strategy. We also have a lot at d end and a lot of good recruits interested too. This isn't earth shattering.

    I don't think any of our recruits are sure things. At least for the big time recruits we need two things. We need progression from our sophomore class and an offense that can score. Lovie has to put up on the field.

    I have to ask why you sign Sydney Brown and seemingly tell Kevyon Davis to take a hike. There is just no info on Brown.

    I don't expect a commitment from Luke Ford until 2018. My understanding is he wants to see the offense before commiting anywhere.

    Kendrick Foster made the announcement he was leaving and came back to the University. I was trying to draw that parallel.

    I hope DJ pulls a Kendrick Foster by staying at Illinois and playing well.

    Bryce Paup Minny's D line coach was at Lutheran North in St. Louis today. Source: I talked to him. He seemed cool.

    Well only one of them won Mr. Basketball so I think so yes.

    I kinda like Tilmons twitter demeanor. Nothing the entire process then retweet the original commitment as of nothing ever happened.

    This may be a dumb question, but how does the preferred walk on thing work? Is there a limit to how many we can take? How is it determined if and when they get a scholarship? Do they have to sign a loi?
