What are we doing on defense?

He did what was human. Hes always been a Griz and Montana loyalist. His family comes first, just like yours. I guarantee you that every player at Montana is happy for him, and will be cheering for Illinois this year.

Holy fuck, You realize that the Illinois DC job has been open less than a week.
Does this mean that Bobby Kennedy is getting an eviction notice from Hauck's basement now?
The man is set, he didn’t need to go chase a bag “for his family”. His kids are adults. He’s in his f’ing 60’s lmao
Good point. It was announced he was leaving same day as Bobby announced.

He'll likely have a stable of the the immovable DT's he's always wanted.
I wish him well. I am worried about him taking some of our players as a gift to the Illini.
If he didn't have contact with Illinois about it prior to his retirement announcement then I'm OK with his decision 100%. But if he was in talks ahead of last week then it was wrong to frame it as a retirement, because clearly it isn't.

Goddamn, he did you guys dirty. I thought it was a joke until I came here.
So basically, if we accept the hints in a favorable way,
1. Coach stepped down because he no longer enjoyed coaching in the new reality,
2. Illinois said "holy shit, let's grab him" because montana is always good
3. Illinois threw a lot of cash at him
4. Bobby grunted
5. Illinois said "you'll never have to deal with NIL issues again, we have someone for that"
6. Profit.

Congrats Bobby! I fully support your move and hope you do well in the Big Ten. See you in Minnesota when the Golden Gophers play the Fighting Illini.
I will laugh my ass off if Bobby runs the 4-2-5 at Illinois. Of course, he might not have a choice in which defense he runs.

Illinois already has the hybrid type personnel that thrive in the 3-3-5 but it might just be a bad fit schematically for the conference.

I think he's paying rent while the Hauck's are in Champaign

Absolutely naive to think the timing of all this for a guy as calculated as Bobby Hauck is just pure luck.

How will you ever know? It isn't like Hoops is going to tell us. Remember, he knows Bobby's agent. (wink, wink)
The Illinois job has only been pen since 2/4.
