Sure hope Buh stays too.
How tied is Jacas and Coleman to Kane and RW?
Can I half like this?Jacas is real close with Henry ...
Coleman and Kane are pretty tight and if you're asking if he'd follow them to Purdue ... It wouldn't surprise me ...
Agree ... But he left a DC job to come here ... This was never going to be a long term deal ...
Why has nobody mentioned the fact that we’re about to get two new coaches. I’m excited to see who else BB brings in. RW and KK are old news.
Any speculation on names yet?Why has nobody mentioned the fact that we’re about to get two new coaches. I’m excited to see who else BB brings in. RW and KK are old news.
Current roster, incoming or both?There were recruiting implications in this decision as well
I think it's pretty obvious Jim Leonhard is coming on board to coach the SafetiesCurrent roster, incoming or both?
One greater than another?
It’s their job. They aren’t fans of a certain school like we are.Seems strange to me for staff members (not RW since he is becoming a head coach) and even players (at least the speculation of players) to so easily jump ship to go to a rival conference team after playing key, active roles on their current team. As an Illini fan I don't think I could switch loyalty to a rival big ten team if I tried. Makes you wonder what goes through the minds of players and coaches now a days when school songs play and teams celebrate victories and morn defeats together. I wonder what percentage of players in particular truly feel bonded to the team they are playing for. I don't really mean this to be critical of anyone but just some questions all of this brings up in my mind.
You realize we have a coach who played at Iowa and coached at Wisconsin?As an Illini fan I don't think I could switch loyalty to a rival big ten team if I tried.

Periods are your friendI have to admit really disappointed with this hire guy doesn't seem to have the experience or any type of wow factor a Leonhard or even a Kane for that matter has as a former DC like others have posted idk what was going on behind the scenes but if this is purely based off recruiting I'd have to think it'd be easier to pay good and get a good recruiter as assistant then to get a top shelf DC.But ill keep my faith with my coach Bret I just really hope this don't lead to a major setback cause when you got momentum going forward and you take a stepback it's really hard to get that momentum back
Your DB coach is the DC….coordinators coach positions too. Can go safety coach and OLB, or OLB and a TE coach depending on what happens with Ben Miller.So we'll need to fill DB coach, OLB Coach, and prob one other positional role?
