[QUOTE="Fighter of the Nightman, post: 1935298, member: 590800"] This seems about what my perception (without good evidence) was. You won't catch us outbidding 'Bama any time soon, but our resources seem to be a LOT better than you would expect for a program that had these stats between Zook being fired and Bielema being hired: - 37-72 (.321) overall record - 16-60 (.211) Big Ten record - 2 bowls (0-2) - Zero winning seasons - Averaged 3.8 wins per season - 1-23 vs. top 25 opponents - Average attendance of 41,492 (68% of capacity) with a low of 30,456 (50% of capacity) :sick: :sick: :sick: :sick: :sick: We have a huge alumni base with more than a little bit of money, and it seems we are nowhere close to our ceiling yet holding our own. I would love to see how "big time" Illinois could be for football NIL if we are able to string together a couple more seasons of 7+ wins! We certainly don't back down to that many programs in basketball when it comes to this stuff. [/QUOTE]
