[QUOTE="Oskee67, post: 1313852, member: 8156"] As the leader of the program, by default he is responsible for everyone's actions. Even if you don't buy into that, the negative publicity and perception this incident creates damages and embarrasses the program. That is Lovie's problem to fix now- which is why I said the honeymoon phase is over. Illinois football doesn't have much of anything going for it- except the Lovie Smith brand: player's coach, respected by everyone, great mentor and teacher, etc. If that image is compromised, this whole thing falls apart before it can get any legs to stand on. This will probably not put a knife through the heart of the program, but the ice just got a little thinner... [/QUOTE]
