Coach B laying down a marker. a really big marker
Whitman made the investment and got his guy …
Bret is getting the f’ing job done …
Whitman has 3 coaches in Bret, Brad and Shauna who likely will all be here until they choose to retire … How many ADs can confidently say a coaching search isn’t even on their radar … Pretty incredible …
and then there were two.....
Vala lil bro looks like he'll be a monster in a few years.
Just crazy good, what Bret (with an awesome AD's support) is doing for the football program thus far is nothing short of amazing.

as this wave rolls on, I reckon our stalwart retention (over multiple seasons) is going to become even more of a differentiator

Awesome addition with Kai on board. Would love to make it a two-fer today.

ONE DOWN.... 3 to go!!!!!
Spots are filling up boys... !!!! or get off the pot,!!!
wisconsin was never in the mix. they never had a visit.
bama has 3 Running Backs on their visit list. Estrada (now committed), the five star they're rumored to be "leading" for, and Barnett. not enough there to think Barnett is coming back. That ship has sailed.

It’s the jealousy over seeing player go to neighbor gopher. Badger fans see program is slip sliding down the ladder.
not to mention our 3rd highly rated Isaiah Williams in the last 20 years
Damn good day to be an Illini!!! Let's go streaking on the Quad tonight!!!!! ILL
