Planning to make the trip to both Maryland and UCLA for the games this fall. I've only been to DC once and it was years ago, and never been to LA. Does anyone have suggestions on which airport is best to fly into, which area to stay in, or any other advice as I look for flights and hotels?

I'm also thinking about making the Maryland trip, but I'll be driving.

I'm sure @altgeld88 will have some tips for us.

Like I’ve said before:

This staff might get more out of their talent than any team in the country.

Bobby's a man of relatively few words. I prefer that to the word salad we would get from his predecessor. Also seems like a no nonsense guy which is typical of good DCs.

When are the Illini football camps, where we can start getting some info on how we look for the fall?
Are there any clear heirs to Altmeyer, Jacas, etc, or are these all wide open for competition?
