Fire Ron Guenther: July 2009

Fire Ron Guenther

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!

UI Does Lousy Job in Bringing In Revenue

UI is 9th in revenue from athletics in the Big 10...barely ahead of the debt-ridden athletic department of Indiana. Where is that money going from giving up home football games to play in Detroit and St. Louis?

A Contract Extension for Ron Zook?

Can we at least wait until Illinois goes bowling in consecutive seasons? The last time that happened was 1991 and 1992....Ron Guenther became Athletic Director in 1992...yeah, connect the dots.

No Party in the Park in Chicago This Summer?

The end of July marks one of my favorite Illini things-the Party in the Park at Joe's Bar in Chicago. It's a chance to talk with the coaches, drink beer and have some fun and get ready for the upcoming football season.

My sources tell me that there won't be a party this year. Epic marketing FAIL by the DIA!!!

DIA Mentioned in Clout Admissions Scandal

What if one of the donors wanted a 7th home football game? Or to have UI sports on a real radio station? Terrible.

DIA Screws Up Football Parking: NOT SHOCKING!

Wow, lots of angry folks complaining about their parking assignments. So if you donate $100 to I Fund, you get worse parking than if you spend $120 ($20 per 6 home games)???
