It's been nice to see Sitkowski grow so quickly as part of the staff. The New Jersey area and the NE at large is a prime recruiting area and having him be familiar with and recruit that area after Buh left is a good thing!

yea

hopefully he sticks around for a few years. those guys tend to be very "mobile" when they start out coaching & recruiting

That guy has everything you want in a leader of your football program except the ability for the ball to go anywhere near where he intended to throw it.

I've heard good things about Kellen Francis. A beast who can play tackle or guard.
1 year at Butler Kansas juco and ready to step up a couple classes. 6-6, 320. visited
Arkansas. pretty darn good mobility for that size.

I'll always remember Art fondly for just surviving with a very outmatched offense against Iowa in that 9-6 thriller 😂

See below for the unbelievable line that did actually keep us in it:

Maybe, but I think it might be too early. Perhaps an assistant to a position coach????

I'll predict Sitkowski is an Illinois position coach next year.

I'd want him to ideally get some on field coaching experience elsewhere. You learn new ideas by moving around and it's what a lot of former GA's do
