Very cool. Thanks for sharing Robert!

I realize there are many ingredients which have gone into building what we now have in the Illini football locker room, dating back to the recruitment of this past year's roster. I know that Josh Whitman realizes it, BUT, let's continue doing everything possible to keep our current coach and his staff content.

Things are really humming right now, and working like a well-oiled machine. Assistant coaches are being rewarded with salary increases and bigger jobs (in Champaign, or elsewhere) and our players are being prominently recognized in the NFL draft.

It's a little bit like the story of Pinocchio --- "We're a real program now."
