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)???
