I saved my 1000th post for this!
In my 40+ years of following sports, college and pro, I've never seen a bolder pronouncement that a new sheriff was in town than this. On his first day. Yes, it's a football thing, but I suspect it's not just a football thing. That shockwave just resonated to every corner of DIA, the University, the state of Illinois. We've been saying for decades that we need to stop accepting mediocrity. I think somebody finally just did.
As a State funded University, are they not required to do a search, including some diversity candidates? I think someone mentioned they must wait at least a week, probably after officially "posting" the job opening.

In Russia they've already found out who the new coach is!
What I don't like about this whole ordeal is well... everything! The timing of this fire will give us 3 coaches in less than a year. I wish we could've done this months ago but nobody with a backbone could make a decisive decision. If I am a recruit, why would I want to commit to this mess? In a state with no budget, fires head coaches at will, it would be one thing if we were actually good but we are not... Whoever comes in better be worth it!
In Russia, coach announces you!
