Hot Seat

Well, Coach Zook, all the pundits think the loss of three draft picks handicaps this team and puts us in the middle of the pack in the East/Plains/Grange/ -what? -Leaders division.  Yet, the locals are a'buzz with optimism.  You've got a new boss. The schedule is in our favor. Your recruiting class, to date, is less than mediocre.  What direction will this program go?    I'm going with early season success but guessing  that when the Big 10 season rolls around, the weaknesses are exposed and reality eventually knocks him out the door.  Hope I'm wrong.  I really hope I'm wrong.

Looking forward to kicking this thing off tomorrow.  Go Illini!
