[QUOTE="StLouIllini, post: 1175834, member: 49765"] The worst thing for any program or team is apathy but I think that is where most Illini fans (I know I am) are at. I still watch but I don't get upset when we blow halftime leads. I was actually thinking at halftime I wonder how long will it take before the lead is gone and Michigan starts pulling away. Injuries stink but those don't change the fact that in 4 years he hasn't gotten 1 BIG quality PG on campus. He also hasn't had any commits from quality high school big men (Black is a stretch 4). He is supposed to be a great recruiter and has both playing time and a brand new arena to use as selling points but he continues to strike out. Even with the injuries this team has had plenty of half time leads only to come out flat out of the locker room and get run off the court. If he sticks around next year which is very likely he really should look at shaking up the staff. The staff as it exists right now isn't very good. They can't recruit Chicago, aren't very good on scouting opponents and Ford's (who I understand manages the lineups) choice of lineup's are puzzling to say the least... [/QUOTE]
