[QUOTE="westvilleillini, post: 1284971, member: 31194"] When you look at our program and its history in its entirety and you don't just focus on this last terrible decade, it's obvious that we are a top 15 program nationally and top 5 in the B1G. I posted this a couple days ago and was dismissed for "having too much alcohol in my orange koolaid", but Illinois has the 13th highest winning percentage in college basketball of all time which puts us ahead of every other current B1G team. This is a sample size of over 100 years of basketball. That's a century of basketball pointing to the FACT that we are indeed a top 15 program. And that is where we should expect our team to rank more often than not. The posters who say that we need to accept the fact that we aren't elite are too complacent and content with mediocrity. The reality is we are an elite program (not a blue blood) and any coach who can't maintain our position in that class should be let go. Here's to a speedy return to prominence. [/QUOTE]
