ok, i will try this again.
I think it's ridiculous for people to say that we have gotten as far as we can go. We continue to recruit very well. Losing both mendenhall and Leman will hurt, but we will be ok with out them. Our running game will be pretty strong with Pollard, Dufrene and Jason Ford.
I think the passing game will be much better next year than last. Juice is finally coming along as a passer. On defense i think the D-Line will be better also, with just about everybody coming back and then you add D-Lo McCray (who was injured) then you also add Ellis and hopefully Liuget into the mix, i think the line will be very strong. Losing leman will hurt but we still have Miller back and Tez will be a every down player next year.
The secondary will be solid also with Davis,Hicks,Miami Thomas, Hardeman and Bellamy coming back from an injury. I dont see much of a drop-off next year. The 2009 season could be very special for Illinois and have a chance to win the Big Ten. That team will be loaded.
