Zook is bringing the SEC to the Big Ten. He's so slimy.

Illinois knew it was getting a strong recruiter, if not a top football strategist and disciplinarian, when it hired Zook.

Sorry, I just enjoyed reading that one. I am a little surprised that assistants from opposing Big 10 schools would allow themselves to be quoted, you don't see that too much. Those preseason Big 10 meetings might not be as cordial as they once were.

Just watching Regis and Kelly. Regis being the Golden Domer Homer that he is, was discussing ND's class (ie Paulson). He then went on about Illinois' class. Saying things like "The perennial Big Ten doormat, the team that won two games last year, all of a sudden has one of the top recruiting classes. Hmmmm....."
Kelly: "You make it sound so sinister"
Regis: I wonder if something sinister is going on. They won two games last year and then get a class like that? Something's going on.
To me, that's Regis telling the NCAA to head to Champaign. He all but accused Zook of cheating.

Sorry, but that first sentence forced me to abandon reading the rest of your post.
