[QUOTE="illini80, post: 1565116, member: 2241"] As the days pass, I’m growing weary of reading so much about how Lovie brought us back to respectability. He is a respectable man and he did run a clean program without scandals, but I don’t believe that respectability translated to the Illinois football program. It stopped with him, personally. Nobody is saying, hey that Illinois is sure a good clean program, I’d like to play for them, anymore than people respected Northwestern 25 years ago for having high academic standards for their players while losing 10 games a year. Not being Beckman does not equal respected. At least in my book. #rantover [/QUOTE]
