The Illinois football team has had tremendous success over the past half-decade.
Much of this success comes on the shoulders of the Illini coaching staff. They have built a culture and a program that is thriving right now.
Bret Bielema has lifted up his coaches throughout the process, too. Now, one of his coaches is heading off to become a head coach himself.
On Thursday, it was announced that assistant running backs coach James White will be taking over Benet Academy in the high school ranks.
