Guess I’ll put this here: senate passes Protect College Sports Act - biclops September 29, 2026, 07:13:59
- Thought Norlander had a good point on the CBS hoops podcast - jdl September 30, 2026, 12:42:00
- If this passes Illinois football will die. It goes back to the old days with $ under the table - bjl63 September 29, 2026, 08:50:46
  - There's a pretty clear difference. - larue33 September 29, 2026, 11:37:38
    - There's very little legit NIL. Arch Manning is making legit NIL. - EffinIllini September 29, 2026, 14:04:56
      - I mean, the number is jumping up to $50mil above board, that's going to be hard for a lot of schools - ijustkrushalot September 29, 2026, 15:40:47
        
        Sure. I was mostly just clarifying larue's comment regarding legit NIL. - EffinIllini September 30, 2026, 14:34:40
        
        Dome could do that with one hand tied behind their back. - osklister September 30, 2026, 11:53:33

    - I think granting an antitrust exemption (and the threat of revoking it) would keep teams in line - Sammich September 29, 2026, 11:26:57
      - I've finally gotten to the point at 50 YO that I'm just enjoying when it's good, and accepting that - uofi1998 September 29, 2026, 11:30:15
        
        Was your childhood really any different than it is now? - Blazer September 29, 2026, 13:29:32
        
        I just have no illusions that we have the financial ability to compete at the highest level. - uofi1998 September 29, 2026, 13:35:27
        
        we've elevated the status of the school, increased revenue, and are competing much better - ijustkrushalot September 29, 2026, 15:42:09
        
        Well said. We're never going to be Ohio State, Oregon, USC, or Michigan - Blazer September 29, 2026, 23:30:21

        Yes, agreed, as it has always been - Blazer September 29, 2026, 13:37:11
        
        Well, as you well know: the 80's belonged to the Illini. * - osklister September 29, 2026, 13:44:35
        
        Only to the extent that it was my formative time, so I grew up believing that... - uofi1998 September 29, 2026, 13:39:58
        
        I'm just noting that the 80s also included teams that went - Blazer September 29, 2026, 15:00:37

      - I still think it was all reactionary to losing our whole d-line and by the time that happened… - OB25 September 28, 2026, 13:31:10
        
        Maybe but he also gave him a 3 year deal - CanHartlebHireSnider September 28, 2026, 13:55:07
        
        Sure, but what was the buyout? - Blazer September 28, 2026, 15:25:09
        
        Aren’t most asst coaches on 1 to 2 year deals? - CanHartlebHireSnider September 28, 2026, 17:26:03

        This is my guess as well. Realized we'd be super under-talented up front, so tried to find a gimmick - UofIL6 September 28, 2026, 13:36:13
        
        It's just a failure all around. - AintHatin September 28, 2026, 13:47:56

        The offense is fine. He needs to fix the defense. But I agree with you for the most part* - OWWDig September 28, 2026, 15:25:04
        
        The offense is a 9-win group - bjl63 September 28, 2026, 15:32:45
        
        In this age of college fball,you'd have to be uber high on an unproven backup to not test the portal - UofIL6 September 28, 2026, 15:46:06
        
        Can we afford a QB and 6-7 DL/LB on our limited budget?* - bjl63 September 28, 2026, 15:57:18
        
        Gotta feeling the "get more money" part is the harder task here. JMHO. - osklister September 28, 2026, 15:07:33

        I will die on the hill that this makes no sense - Blazer September 28, 2026, 22:25:52
        
        Other thing is: maybe we couldn’t afford to retain all our top DL players but we should have - ATL September 28, 2026, 17:13:10
