That's the funniest one liner I have heard in quite some time.

After Lamaar visited Illinois, the Champaign paper did a small tidbit with him after the visit. Lamaar said Illinois team was like a family and he liked that. I don't have the actual quote but I will try to find it. My gut still says he goes to the Buckeyes. My guess is that Lamaar has said...

Long time no post, but wanted to put in my two cents. I am an Illini fan and have a feeling that Lamaar will be a Buckeye. Who the heck would have ever thought, that the Illini would give OSU a run at a recruit? Maybe good things are ahead for this Illini team.

The photo of the golf cart is real and not photoshopped. I have seen it many times and I always crack up when I see it. The field is real grass and yes, the field supervisor cringes when he sees it out there. Speaking of turf, I see OSU is going to synthetic turf for next season. Too bad...

That article must not have included the entire quote from Zook because he also said that it was a clean hit after he watched the film. The other call Zook was critical on was the pass interference call that Vontae Davis received. I am not 100% on the rules but Zook said that face guarding is...

Bobby Bowden to MSU? "I think it is a daggum good league year end and year out. It may be too cold for these here old bones to take. It would be interesting to see how them Northerners live up in that there cold.":D

Turf will still play slow because it is stretched badly. It is to be replaced at end of this season or next. I think they added some more crumb rubber to the field recently and this will make the turf slippery. I see the turf making about 6-7 tackles by its self.

no growing grass at Memorial Stadium, it is fake turf.

BuckeyeBiz, If someone directs you Chester Street, ummmmm, watch your backside if you know what I mean.

Don't worry too much about losing a parking space. I have a parking pass so I am unsure to a large degree about general parking problems. I know that there are lots of tickets left so parking should be easy getting. I don't know the cost either for general parking but a guess would be around the...

BuckeyeBiz, If you are a college student or in that age group then walk to Green Street for the bar action. If you have played that game and now want a more "civilized" bar then head downtown Champaign. That area used to be a pit but the city has cleaned it up drastically and it is the...

Does anyone know if Champaign honors the 4 AM bar closing law like Chicago? Bars are open until 2 AM

If Champaign hotels are full you can also try Rantoul. From I-74 it is about 15 minutes. I think that if you have to stay in Rantoul you should be able to leave your hotel room and be in a tailgate lot in 25 minutes to 30 minutes. Pretty easy drive also from Rantoul, once you get on Highway...

his technique for the most part looked pretty damn good. I thought he had a look of being "light" on his feet, especially at the beginnings. It was kinda funny at the start because you could tell the opposing teams was scared to death of him. Good reaction time but not as vocal on the field...

A thought that came to my mind while watching Josh was that he was picking up "lazy" habits. I do not want to sound like I am dumping on this kid because a "kid" is what he is. There were times during the games where it was like he was saying to himself, "Screw it, they're not running to my...

I believe it is the same here in Champaign it is just not enforced. If I was walking on the sidewalk infront of the stadium drinking a beer the cop wouldn't say a word. If I was walking on the sidewalk downtown infront of a store I would be busted. Heck, it used to be that you could leave the...

Here at Illinois you can remain drinking while the game is going out in the tailgate lots (with our team that helps a lot). Is it the same at OSU? At Penn State, I think you can get a citation for drinking in the tailgate lots while the game is in progress.

I have seen Josh play 3 times this year and here is my take. This may sound hypocritical but here it goes. If he decides to stay in-state and go to Illinois I would be thrilled. If he decides that OSU is a better fit then I am not going to feel that bad because I worry about his ability. Let...

Wad, I went there and clicked on the icon and it gave me a statement saying something like I did not have enough points. I will have to read the FAQ section to see what I need to do. I am sure it has to do with depositing or withdrawing from the bank. Also, I did a search and could not...

I am hoping that the "uncertainty" of Bowden being retained as head coach will push Benn a little closer to Illinois.
