The incredible work Bret Bielema has done with the Illinois football roster has not gone unnoticed over the last few years.
From where the Illini were to where we are now as a program is a complete transformation. This program didn’t have depth, we barely had quality talent, and the coaching staff wasn’t able to put a solid run together.
That all changed with Bielema at the helm. Not only is it nice to have a competent college coach, but Bielema and his coaching staff are also recruiting well. One of the under-the-radar recruits Bielema has been able to land is Xavier Scott.
