This is a blog dedicated to informing folks about University of Illinois Athletic Director Ron Guenther and how he has screwed up Fighting Illini athletics. This is especially true regarding football during his tenure. If you live in East Central Illinois and you blindly believe Ron Guenther is the greatest thing to happen to Fighting Illini athletics, don't read this blog! If you care about the Fighting Illini and want to see a winning athletics program, welcome!

I am not from East Central Illinois, so I am a realist and not a brownnoser of the DIA. I am tired of bad Illinois football and I demand change. Change starts at the top. Ron Guenther must go.

It looks like Oswald is your biggest fan! Ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!
You previously stated that non-revenue sports did not matter. Only football and basketball counted for anything. What is happening to you?
Illinois Recognized With Diversity Award
The University of Illinois Division of Intercollegiate Athletics has been selected to receive a Diversity in Athletics Award in the category of Diversity Strategy, to be presented June 11 at the Hilton Anatole Hotel in
Dallas, site of the 2008 National Association of Collegiate Directors
of Athletics (NACDA) Convention.
³It is with great pleasure that we would like to recognize and
congratulate the University of Illinois athletics department as one of those recognized for a Diversity in Athletics Award in the category of Diversity
Strategy,² Charlotte Westerhaus, Vice President of Diversity and
Inclusion at the NCAA, said in a letter addressed to Ron Guenther, Director of Athletics at Illinois.
³This is a terrific honor for our department,² Guenther said.
³The Division of Intercollegiate Athletics has had diversity as one of its key components of the strategic plan since 1992. Our entire department is to be congratulated.²
Using independent research conducted by the Laboratory for
Diversity in Sport at Texas A&M and supported by the NCAA, the award winners are those that have achieved the highest total combined scores in the areas
of diversity strategy, gender diversity of departmental employees, racial diversity of departmental employees, value and attitudinal diversity of
departmental employees, graduation of African-American female and male
student-athletes, and gender equity compliance.
For this clown who made the diversity post, Big Freakin' Deal. Illinois and Purdue are still the only Big 10 schools who have never had a non-white head coach for football or men's basketball, the two revenue sports. That is some progress under Saint Guenther!
I'm sure if we had hired a black coach and the team had stunk you'd be complaining about how we put diversity above winning. Quit whinning
I'm the "clown" that posted the info on the diversity award. Your reaction? Predictable. The lengths you go to find "information" to discredit Guenther is astonishing. I'll keep visiting here to post the truth on Guenther. Tou should get started dreaming up negative comments you can make in response.
Well, Guenther allowed Lou Tepper, he of making sure black players & white players ate meals together, to let Illinois football go down the crapper, so there, smart guy!
"Illinois and Purdue are still the only Big 10 schools who have never had a non-white head coach for football or men's basketball, the two revenue sports." Iowa?
iowa had George Raveling coach basketball.
"Well, Guenther allowed Lou Tepper, he of making sure black players & white players ate meals together, to let Illinois football go down the crapper, so there, smart guy!" eat
...but Illinois is the only Big Ten school to make the NCAA finals in men's golf with perhaps the youngest team in the field. A program on the rise due to the coach that Coach Guenther hired and facilities that Coach Guenther raised money for.
