Ron Guenther=Al Davis?
Loren Tate says Coach Guenther may have influenced football coach Ron Zook's decision to bench quarterback Juice Williams for Eddie McGee: "He may have gotten strong opinions from athletic director Ron Guenther, coordinator Mike Schultz and other members of the staff."
Um....WHAT???? Look Ron, we know you constantly refer to yourself as the "Football Guy" and as the MVP of the 1967 Illinois football team. Don't you have better things to do than screw up the football program more than it is already, thanks to your asinine scheduling and bad coaching hires? 79-120-2 says that you are not qualified to have anything to do with the football program! 6 home games! Ron, YOU IDIOT!

"Illinois Listed Sixth in ESPN/Sagarin All-Time College Basketball Rankings
ESPN has published a new book, the College Basketball Encyclopedia, which chronicles the players, coaches and teams throughout the history of the sport. As part of that book, Jeff Sagarin applied his computer ratings formula to produce an all-time rankings list for NCAA Division I teams, dating back to the 1938 season when the first NCAA Championship was held.
Illinois is at No. 6 on the ESPN/Sagarin All-Time College Basketball Rankings. Eight of the Top 15 teams, meanwhile, are from the Big Ten. In addition to the all-time list for all 330 teams, Top 40 rankings were determined by decade. Illinois checked in at No. 3 in the 1940s, No. 2 in the '50s, No. 12 in the '60s, No. 4 in the '80s, No. 29 in the '90s, and No. 6 in the 2000s."
Excellent job by the AD of building (380-162) on the winning tradition in a program that everyone does care about!
And zero national championships. And only 1 Final 4 appearance since RG took over an already successful program. And no chance of remodeling Assembly Hall or funding a new arena in the forseeable future. And a football program that is now the laughing stock of the Big 10. And Zook still has 4 years on his contract after this year.
Logic has no place for deep thinkers from Hudson, Ohio.
Champaign has fallen 14 spots to 84th of best sports towns in the USA. After this UI football season, will Champaign even make next year's list?

You missed the recent announcement that the campaign to finance the refurbishment of the Assembly Hall is underway?

For people who claim that they could care less about non revenue sports at Illinois.....this statistic is not even about Illinois sports programs!
Next thing bloggers here will be blaming the AD for the Cubs poor season.

If you had half the reasoning skills of some Hudson residents you'd win twice as many cases as you do.
For many of today's greatest minds it's a difficult decision on where to begin their career: Wall Street, Silicon Valley or Hudson, Ohio.
Since the 3 wise men (Zook, Turner & Tepper) had 2, 1 and 0 years of prior head coaching experience, DIA should get a grant from the state for starting a job training program. Governor Quinn should ask for RG's resignation.
FYI, Zook coached 3 years at Florida not 2. And Guenther did not hire Tepper.
Seems that frg and those of his ilk are short on facts and long on emotional responses. It's a definte fact that the great minds in this country are not in Joliet.

Actually, Hudson Ohio is where you live AFTER you are successfull in your career.
Hahaha so after you've made a bundle at your career, the next stop on the road of life is Hudson, Ohio? A town in between Akron and Cleveland? I don't understand the attraction.
