[QUOTE="Battle89, post: 2014050, member: 748721"] Snark all you want; when you want to provide evidence to back up your unfounded claims let me know. This is about an administration that for many years not only did not support athletics, but also actively contributed to a public image of Illinois as a lousy place to coach a football team. That (as well as years of losing records, of course) is why we could not attract first-class coaches, regardless of the color of their skin. Later we piled the player abuse scandal on top of this and really set ourselves back. Article from the News-Gazette when Lovie was hired: [ATTACH type="full" width="341px"]31055[/ATTACH] Article from SBNation when Beckman was hired: [ATTACH type="full" width="430px"]31056[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
