Why? So people betting on games get the best info? Seems like we are feeding the problem.

Has anybody reminded him of the article? Would love to hear his opinion now.Apropos of nothing, I love how poorly this SB Nation article has aged

I don't remember this ever happening before!
he could still be right. Maybe Ryan Walters was the reason for Illinois success.......guess we'll find outHas anybody reminded him of the article? Would love to hear his opinion now.
And we aren’t even technically established as a “good” program yet (in the eyes of doubters)…maybe 3-4 consistent years and even they will have to recognize.
But the direction even that season went, not to mention last year, is just the exact opposite of his matter-of-fact opinion.
the audio was off a little offI don't remember this ever happening before!
What a great tradition to start off!
And did you folks notice the build on some of these P5 football players?
This is going to be a great ILLINI football season!
meh, its pretty safe to say the writer was WAY OFF.he could still be right. Maybe Ryan Walters was the reason for Illinois success.......guess we'll find out
I'm good friends with the guy who wrote the article.Last line in the linked article:
"Prove me wrong, big guy."
BB: Check and mate.
I agree with this. I didn't at the time, but there's no mistaking that he's doing the work and living the values he speaks of. He's building the program I've long wanted.we have what I think is probably the best coach for our program that was available in the past 10 - 15 years - given our standing in the college football world .
guys like Lincoln Riley were not going to give us a thought .
I don’t doubt his loyalty bona fides. He was writing about the Illini during an offseason in which the rest of the world had given the program up for dead.I'm good friends with the guy who wrote the article.
Trust me, he's estatic to be proven wrong.
He's also prone to hyperbole and isn't afraid to get a touch satirical when he writes. It's easy to take Thump the wrong way if you don't know him.I don’t doubt his loyalty bona fides.

Thumpasaurus is the wittiest and perhaps the hardest working of the Off-Tackle Empire "writers." And he's all ours. Check out the site for interesting, irreverent banter among Big 10 football fans. Also, f*** Michigan.Regarding the OTE article the writer is an Illinois fan. The website itself is not to be taken too seriously as the writers will make fun of other teams as well as their own.
They also gave the world this absolute gem

east balcony could be your best bet thenOk, I may have a window opening to attend the Penn State game. What’s the best strategy for buying tickets? If I’m going I want decent seats at least between the 20’s. I haven’t been for several years. Can you still find them outside the stadium pregame or has that gone away with digital tickets?
there are ticket brokers on line or use stub hub / seat geekOk, I may have a window opening to attend the Penn State game. What’s the best strategy for buying tickets?
