Congratulations to the One Man Search Committee!!!
AKA Football Guy! Your hire Ron Zook made the list of worst coaching hires in college football, and he made the list twice! Best AD in the country! 81-126-2! 5 bowl games in 19 seasons!
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!

If there is anyone who even cares about Illinois football left with Guenther and Zook in charge, check out the work Sheahon Zenger has done at Illinois State. Great hires, good programs and a class act who is friendly and positive to alumni. Contrast that to what our esteeemed "football guy" is like. Just makes me sick!!
If ever the Fighting Zooks play Northwerstern in Wrigley, somebody should fly a banner trailing from a plane stating "FLORIDA WAS RIGHT" - the owners of the original FireRonZook flew one at the Outback Bowl on 1/1/03 saying "WE TOLD YOU SO" - and were THEY ever right!
Trust me, as a Florida fan I feel your pain. Zook was a nightmare for three seasons, and the day he was finally fired at UF (10/25/04) was one of the happiest days of my life - an even happier one was the day we hired Urban Meyer as a replacement. Hang in there guys, one day Zook will be let go in Champaign-Urbana - and I hope all of y'all don't have to wait too much longer to finally see that happen.
