Do you remember how the 2021 class had one of their biggest wins securing Aiden Laughery? Kingston Shaw has almost exactly the same ranking, slightly better offers as Laughery....but Shaw's the lowest ranked recruit in his current class.
i did not know that, so thanks for the reference point. As a marker of progress, that is astounding. Really great work by this staff.

Bret can actually cook a lil bit … He’s got some skills in the kitchen … 😂
Really? Nobody is gonna touch this one?! 🤣🤣

Now, that's an indicator of how well Bret has done this year! Noone is grabbing at the low-hanging fruit joke!

You must've missed him getting shut out recently from a honorary degree lol
Could we make Khan an honorary football “coach?” If schools can give out honorary degrees, let’s make him an honorary coach and bestow some cool new celebratory part of the Smith Center for him. Why not be innovative and think out of the box? Keep this completely under Josh’s control so the wider university doesn’t get to weigh in.

No offense to him but if the Jags are any indication no thanks...

I'd make him the Grand Poobah of Illini football if that would up his ante.

I never thought I'd get my dose of optimism by coming over to the football threads, but here we are.
I appreciate your post. However, there have to be posters like me who remember the Mike White Years when there were games we looked unstoppable. For me , the return of Illinois football to being an elite program was bound to happen. I just didn’t think it would take 30 plus years…

Will Denzel be making another appearance on the FB recruiting board before the end of the month? If yes, do you predict that it'll be a one-time thing? I'd like to see Denzel with something more akin to a residency here on the board a la Adele in Vegas.

While I agree, they stay Billionaire's by not giving money away without ROI. Come to find out it's our tax dollars being spent. Maybe, and here's a thought give Khan that degree finally.

The man goes to school with my class. Leaves a bit early to make 5 billion on bumpers. And we don't give him a dgree. Horrible optics on admins part. Absolutely irresponsible. He has been a very good spokesman for our Illini.. that's what steams me the most.
