Jasn, will that schedule get the squad ready for a B1G Regular Season Championship run?

By my projections I see us finishing 3rd or 4th

Who cares?  The first 35 games don't matter.

Just chef's kiss logic, I fucking love it.  We play 35 games a year but 97% of them are totally immaterial.  Only one matters.

Couldn't write that "logic" with a room full of comedy vets.

They matter for getting into and ready for the tournament. Period.

You have been on a strawman roll lately. Glad to see Fanin call out your bullshit.

Fanin hasn't made one coherent substantive reply to me yet so it makes perfect sense that you think he's killing it.

Getting into the tournament and getting a good seed to increase the likelihood you go deep, yeah.  It's not the given you act like it is, most coaches do not do that consistently.  And nobody who's not taken the regular season seriously has ever had success in the tournament, because you can't go far unless you get in.  Weird how that works.

Does that mean you won't pay attention and do your silly troll game every second until the season finally matters in the tournament?  Maybe there's an upside here?

Oh, the Squeaky Jr. line was good.

Who said it was a given? Nice straw. It should be for Illinois, but we all are well aware it isn't.

You are doing yeoman's work lately with the straw construction. Congrats.

Non Conference will be very telling after all is said and done.

Anyone who wants Underwood fired right now is absolutely taking it as a given.

You're just hoping the next guy can even get us into the tournament consistently, which most coaches cannot (especially now, when they will definitely not inherit much and will have to build completely from scratch).

Again, I don’t think most fans want Underwood fired. But I think it’s ok not to be completely satisfied.
"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

I'm good with this take. He's not going to be fired anyway. However,  it appears he is maybe not happy here for some reason? I don't know.

Wouldn’t bother me if he’s not happy here. Don’t want him fired. But again, I’m ok moving on. I’m not scared of the idea of having to hire a replacement.

I'm more concerned about who is doing the hiring. That said, I will admit I am less concerned about it now, than in previous years.

If he were to leave or be fired, what do you guys think the chances are that we get someone with a comparable resume to what Underwood had when we hired him, or comparable to what he had now?

What is the timing on the departure?
