Things just don't make much sense to me with all that is happening. We are coming off a great 2 -year stretch and it feels like we still haven't gotten over hump with things in someways. Everything is a struggle with us in recruiting all the time. We didn't get the TE from STL that we thought we had a good chance at, and now we are going to lose our star QB commit. It just feels like everything is just so damn hard for us, even when we start turning things around. You would think that we are here at the point that these players would love to come to Illinois, but everything is so hard for us for some reason. I know that we had a real good recruiting class last year, but you have to do it year after year. It's still early (somewhat) and we could end with another good class, but it's like pulling teeth right now with us.

Our NIL is weak compared to the top programs...probably even compared to the top 40 programs

I never believed this staff would start a true freshman so Lopati probably wants to go some place where there’s more of a chance that happens along with the money that comes with being a starter
Excuse me. Is Bryce Underwood leaving UM?

The insiders warned us…we’re involved in big boy recruiting now. It’ll happen. We’re fine.

How many times in the past 50 years did we win 19 games in two seasons capped off with bowl wins over SEC teams?

I remember how I felt about Lopati after watching him for the 1st time prior to him committing to us..............future 1st rd pick in NFL....He has ALL the tools you want in a QB1.........sucks to see him go somewhere else......sucks even more that he's going to end up @ scUM...................My hatred for that evil place just grows more every day.....it really really does............
