The Uni-FREAKIN’-versity of Illi-FREAKIN’-nois???

In Big Ten football there are three tiers; in the first is Michigan and Ohio State in the second is Iowa, Wisconsin and Penn State the lowliest tier of all consists of the rest of the schools in the conference. Something is awry after national signing day, the Illini seem to have the third best recruiting class in the Big Ten and in my opinion it looks better than Ohio State’s. Seems that Chief Illiniwek went to the Reggie Bush School of recruitment offering 2 cars, a house and free helicopter rides to and from practice for signing on the dotted line. That is the only way to explain why a team that has won 8 games in 4 seasons, half won by the infamous Ron Zook, could have pulled of such a feat.

I know that the team is remodeling memorial stadium but that is not enough for the last place team in the Big Ten to get so many quality recruits… and they lost the #8 rated QB to our very own Golden Gophers so he could go play football for his daddy. It’s Ron F@#king Zook, the man was run out of Florida. I’m pulling my hair out thinking about how a team this bad could manage this, but his recruits did just win a national title at Florida. We could be looking at Illinois playing for a piece of the Big Ten championship in 2010 or 2011. Zook’s record of 4-19 looks like it could edge closer to double digits in the win column in the near future.

On a side note, I’m going to go ahead and take all of the credit for the wolves’ victory last night. I just know that sat huddled around the computer before the game saying, “That little bastard is going to eat his words. I can’t believe he has the nerve to say that shit!”
