No, I love Chappelle. Ask ThePAMan his thoughts on Chappelle.

If you’d watch the entire thing you’d know they are talking about the future and his vision for roster construction, and not about why this year’s team has been losing.

If you understand nuance and reading between the lines you’d know what he was saying. If you’re a clown or a shill, you might not understand it. A head coach should never have to use practice time the next day to “clarify” how he made them look bad to the press.

He said you need talent to win, ok fine. But he ALSO said he had players on his roster that weren’t helping them, and apparently took the time to talk about how his predecessor did a poor job of stocking the cupboard. What other logical conclusion could you make other than he was pretty much dogging on his current roster?

How much of a shill do you have to be to come to a different conclusion?

Haven't seen the latest special. Again, it is not me who has taken the stand that certain coaches lack character based on their past conduct but do not apply the same standards to certain sports radio guys you agree with. Again, you seek to obfuscate the point because you have no defense.

I approve your decision to address Tempo in sentences beginning with "again."

He'll better be able to follow your thinking.

Again, as far as I know Bernstein hasn’t been accused of abuse, or locked a concussed kid in a dark shed. He did type the word “boobs” once, though.

He doesn’t actually compare himself to a jockey trying to win the Kentucky Derby on a low quality horse.

It’s called an inference. And it isn’t hard to connect from dot A to dot B.

Or, one could just be a drone and continue to shield Illini coaches from valid criticism. It’s a time honored tradition ‘round these parts.

True, we do not know what he has done to his kid if he let up a weak goal as a goalie. I do not believe it was the only time he employed misogynistic rhetoric though. And he did have a running bit with a character named "Count Fagula." But he has sports takes you agree with!

I think there have been quite a few here who have not been enamored with some of his in game decisions and even said so, but ok....

What other logical conclusion could you make other than he was pretty much dogging on his current roster?

How much of a shill do you have to be to come to a different conclusion?

JFC you just keep showing your ass over and over again because you won’t even bother to watch anything other than the little clip which is the very definition of something being taken out of context.

His comment about the O Line two deep not helping the team is solely because there are very few even left on the roster. 

You’re right about one thing though:

Any shots fired were 100% fired at his predecessor.

From Roughy:

“In 2017, there were four freshmen on the offensive line: Vederian Lowe, Alex Palczewski, Doug Kramer, and Larry Boyd. Boyd was then dismissed from the team and another recruit from the 2017 class, Kendrick Green, became a starter on the line. Those four guys (Green, Lowe, Palcho, and Kramer) have been the anchors of every line since (all but this season, of course, with Green having declared for the draft last spring).

So to anyone who follows this program closely, that has been the offensive line talking point for years. It's the same guys on the OL year after year, so what's the succession plan? Fast forward to this summer with all of the OL recruits in the 2020 class (Griffin, Sparks, Tyler, and Jones) transferring out and Jordyn Slaughter breaking his ankle and we get to the point that Bielema made in the press conference today (in the other answer where he referenced Julian Pearl).

On the offensive line, it's five seniors (Lowe, Kramer, and Palcho plus one-year grad transfers Jack Badovinac and Blake Jeresaty), another guy from the 2017 class who redshirted so he's technically a junior (Alex Pihlstrom), and then Julian Pearl. From 2018 through today, the only guy to move up through the OL program and onto the field has been Julian Pearl.”
