[QUOTE="AirNeezy, post: 1568021, member: 747721"] Yup. Thank god for Whitman. I honestly think that in 20 years we will look back and see his hire as one of the singular hinge points for our programs. To go from John Groce and Tim Beckman to Brad Underwood and Bret Bielema in both our revenue sports is nothing short of a miracle that few other AD's I think could've pulled off. Especially considering where we were when he was hired. Obviously Lovie didn't work out but not sure that anyone could've foreseen just how little interest he would have in recruiting. [/QUOTE]
