Money talks and maybe Shaka walks--read about Danny Hurley who said in January 20212 that he was "not that guy" who leaves a job after the first year and now, only 60 days later he is at Rhode Island...when they want you and back up the brinks truck and make all the other promises--they usually get you.
Illinois is running things the same way businesses go bankrupt. What a mess, full fledge panic mode.
Illinois has the athletic budget and the boosters to pay coaches well. The BTN also pays quite nicely.
