[QUOTE="Bleedorangeandblue44, post: 1576663, member: 627714"] Believe me, I'm all for that. I originally thought Beilein leaving was part of what would help Illinois climbling back up the Big Ten pecking order. And then we go 2-0 last year vs. Michigan and Howard last year, right on track. But now not sure what to think. Is it too much to ask a couple Big Ten teams could hire a coach who underperforms? Might not make all those who talk about wanting the Big Ten to be this insanely great conference happy, but I'm more for what would make Illinois really good year in and year out again. And when teams like Michigan are recruiting and playing at the level they are now, makes it that much more challenging. Wouldn't hurt to have a stretch like the early 2000s when a few Big Ten rivals had so-so (or worse) coaches. [/QUOTE]
