Last year was the middle of June, I'd expect roughly the same time frame this year.

It's the enticement to get more money. NCAA regs had forbidden pay to play, but now if a player knows he can get $x from Illinois, he may go to LSU who promises him $5x. The former system was kinda ridiculous in part because it nitpicked what are necessities, like food and travel to attend a family funeral.
But the real threat to college sports is the gol dang portal.
That looks to be a high quality up-and-coming coach. In doing a little bit of background, 1 year ago when Discher moved from Georgia to Tulane, you can see that Georgia recognized that losing him was a bigger deal than you would expect for an off-the-field coach/analyst.
One of the top Special teams guys in the country

I came here to post this as well. Illinidarrin beat me to it. You guys at Loyalty are on it!
On paper, with the additions of kickers Olano and Duley along with Coach Discher, special teams appears to be on a big trajectory upward.
So you're telling me our head coach identified "an area of opportunity" and has addressed it by improving on it?
Seriously, we are well on our way to the promised land of consistent 8+ win seasons (and more!) with Bret.

I don't know about this guy. He didn't play at Wisconsin, coach at Wisconsin, grow up in Wisconsin. Has this guy even visited Wisconsin? maybe for a vacation? I don't know if he'll fit in?
That said he's getting a stud Fr P and K, so maybe he'll survive.
I heard annual tickets to the Dells was part of the package
One trip to the Schultz Cheese Haus and we'll make a convert out of him.
