[QUOTE="Obelix, post: 1409466, member: 7292"] Never part of what I have said. Strong recruiting is a necessary but not sufficient condition, and strong recruiting is something that Illinois has been lacking since Self left. There have been overachievements (e.g., Groce's first year, Weber's 2008-09) counterbalanced with underachievements (last year, Weber's 2011-12) and the rest has been a big meh... pretty much on par of what this program has been given the lack of talent level necessary to compete in the B1G. On the contrary to your last statement, as Weber proved in his early years with Self's players, it was rather overperformance given the talent. [/QUOTE]
