Crete busts a nut: Illinois names Burp Beliema head coach

[JDW]

I know there’s a certain poster here who is glad he’s in some type of orange and blue...makes it easier to root for him

Illinois hires Bielema to replace Smith as coach

......and he is off into oblivion

Crete is gone?

I grew up in Illinois cheering for the Illini - they're good for a decent season about once a decade, if that. Burp can't be any worse than Smith.
Thankfully the BB team is usually solid.

......and he is off into oblivion

Where was he before?
He is an oblivion!

Isn't this being discussed in the coaching carousel thread? Turning this place into swampgas, starting a new thread for every tidbit. smh

Crete is gone?

Illini have a football death wish

Screte, screte, screte.

Crete probably still has his Ron Zook collection jerseys anyway. He is probably lost in his basemente trying to find them.

Crete is gone?

He is driving his Mustang, probably 110 mph trying to get to Illinoize to meet Burp as he gets off the plane.

Maybe they can share a cheesesteak while they look forward to brighter days

True, but you can't have any complaints with the thread title.

So you think if Urban or Saban took another CFB coaching job it wouldn't get it's own thread?
Look...there are just certain coaches in CFB that are larger than life(and in this case also larger than the average full sized passenger vehicle)and as such they deserve a little more attention than the Chip Kelly or Scott Frost of this world....
