[QUOTE="Old.Edgy, post: 1659102, member: 748325"] Frankly, if you look at our history we've been basically doing this 'rebuild, fire, hire, rebuild' stuff since the late 1950's... Since Ray Eliot retired in 1959, we've had 14 coaches (now 15), and we're still looking for that 'genie in the bottle' to help us be a winner... Yes, Mike White was a winner (40-26–2) as was Mackovic (22-9–1), but all that success was short lived. A successful and sustainable college football program has eluded us since Bob Zuppke retired in 1941... We're Illinois... We don't deserve to be good in football. (Sad face) [/QUOTE]
