Is this coming from somewhere? Why do people think this is a thing? I'm honestly asking.
Yeah, people keep saying they've read it on Twitter, but from who? Writing Illini? I would be absolutely ecstatic if that magically happened, but Bennett to Illinois just does not have any sort of legs to stand on other than that he wouldn't need to get new ties.
I still think this is a helluva job. If it were down to us and GTown that's probably a pickem based on the candidate's personal preference.
I commented to this effect on an earlier page. I'm a little worried there. Every stop Keatts has been has been east coast or Louisville. Born in VA, Hargrave Military Academy is in VA, then Louisville (KY), and back to the coast at UNCW. Georgetown is a solid job, but Thompson III has hurt that reputation a lot, imo, little local respect for that program now even (family goes to GW or MD games instead). I think this would be a case where we trust JW to get it done, and learn a lot either way in the process. The one thing that will continue to be a trump card is B10 money.
