A performance like this right after the passing of an Illini legend just adds another level of disgrace. Instead of being inspired and playing to honor his legacy... it was disrespectful to his memory and to all Illini football fans.
Here’s a novel idea: When something (or someone) is not working out – try something different. But not just different to be different. Different to ELEVATE YOURSELF. Others seem to know how to do it.
This has set the football program back again at a time when that is the very last thing it needed.
More big boys like USC, UCLA, Oregon, and Washington will soon be coming to town. This is going to get much uglier until there is major improvement and PRONTO.
The current and former Illini football head coaches had creditable resumes before they came town. Something weird and mysterious seems to have happened to their ability to build a winning program and coach football games.
Right now, it’s very fortunate that ‘Relegation’ is not yet a thing in the Big Ten. But if things stay the same as they are now and Relegation does start to happen, look out for the future.
