The Bull Gator —
... But wait, it gets better. Illinois athletic director Ron “I Think I’m a Good Judge of Results” Guenther has come out and said the blemish on Jeremy Foley’s record will return in 2010. Clearly, winning one of your last 10 games means progress in the right direction. Even if Zook does make it to the 2010 season, we can’t imagine him being at Illinois for the long run.
