What is the over/under for 4 wins for the Illini next year? Does anyone really, really believe that Lovie is the coaching answer at Illinois?
Are they really any better than before Lovie?
I'm sure he is a great guy, and he was a heckuva defensive coordinator in the pro's, and he won 56% of his games as the Bear head coach. So, if he wins 56% of his college games in a 12 game college season, the best he will generally do is 7-5 or 6-6. This will get him to a bowl game, which he will lose most years.
