[QUOTE="SescIllini, post: 1300248, member: 603681"] We were pretty high in every decade except the 70s, 90, and 2010-present. If you consider fan support (attendance) and recruiting base (MCAA, NBA, Div 1 talent) Illinois is pretty high. If you consider there are 330 Div 1 schools and we are 11th, that means we are top tier and close to elite. But we haven't won a Championship and can't recruit like the top 5 programs. So I agree the blue bloods are UK, KU, UNC, Duke, and UCLA. Near blue bloods are Indiana, Louisville, and 6-10. I think with our history, fan support, recruiting base, and AD/organizational support we can be like an Arizona. Or how we were from 2000-2006. :illinois: [/QUOTE]
