[QUOTE="CurbeloYourEnthusiasm, post: 1560373, member: 747729"] How so? I think we need a guy that can recruit the area of the Midwest, knows how to win in the Big 10, and also has the connections to bring together a strong staff. You’d be hard pressed to find a better resume for Big 10 football than Bret Bielema. No doubt it in my mind. And if you can, then I’d love to hear the names. If we want to build a program that can consistently compete with Iowa, NW, WI, Minn then what better candidate is there? We all talk about “why can’t we be as good as those teams”. Well it’s coaching, and you need a guy in here that knows how to build a Big 10 college program. It’s being able to hire strong coordinators, recognizing who is attainable in recruiting and developing those players from your area, and creating a system that you can sustain. There not many coaches out there that you’d feel more comfortable saying “this guy can consistently build an 8 win team at Illinois bc he has the system in place” than a Bielema, [/QUOTE]
