 Previous Message  Previous Message He might be ready to just go be a mid to late round pick even if it does, but he would warrant a very hefty NIL package to persuade him otherwise.  Previous Message I’m always bad at fan-ing when Illinois football has expectations. It’s such a fragile doe that I key on every broken twig.  Previous Message Always so fearful of the season turning into a big disappointment that I’m not appreciating the fact that the last 2 years have really been all I’ve ever asked for. Constantly playing meaningful/relevant games in prime TV slots (Big Noon, CBS 2:30, NBC Primetime) and just being part of the conversation. Most of my life as an Illinois fan has been filled with nothing with 11AM BTN games or ESPN2 games with their bottom of the barrel announcing crews. There were so many years where I’d even just be watching the 2:30 ABC games and wishing we could even be good enough to warrant one of those spots.  Previous Message  Previous Message We are halfway through the season at 5-1. Where do you think we end up? vs WIU (1-0) @ Duke (2-0) vs WMU (3-0) @ IND (3-1) vs USC (4-1) @ PUR (5-1) vs OSU @ WAS vs RUT vs MD @ WIS vs NW

When something is happening, young people like to say it’s “lit.”
