That was a fundamentally sound beat down from UVA. We now have a goal in site and that is to be where UVA is in year 4 of the Bielema Era.

Frustrated with the slow starts, but that is where we will see coaching throughout the season. If it continues to Week 6 or 7, I’ll be very concerned.

I feel so frustrated, angry, embarrassed, hurt etc that it’s hard to find words. I will NOT give up on this coaching staff and the Illini players. Just won’t do it, just can’t do it. It’s going to take some time, that’s all anyone can say at this point. Be patient, I know it’s really hard.

Unfortunately, this team aspires to maybe mid-level MAC talent, even with all the seniors. Its going to take a while to work through this.

Still wondering why guys that competed for spots at major winning programs are not able to come in and grab starting spots when everyone is starting with a new system - Jafar, E.Smith - must be injuries?

A team full of well paid coaches, FBS scholarship athletes, many super/returning seniors should be better than that no matter where they are their development curve. We’re 3 games in. How much more development should we expect from returning seniors?
I think we’re gonna see a lot more of the younger guys playing, similar to lovies first year. Sigh

Check how they performed at those previous schools. There's a reason why they were in the portal (most of them).
