Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 4230646, member: 405"] Tommy didn't commit to Illinois until December 10th, after the season was over. Why did he have to announce he was quitting after week 5? What would have happened if Shrader had gotten hurt? Dungy had gotten hurt. Similar players. He couldn't get out of here fast enough, and then his dad made that 'parting shot' post about the unsophisticated offense we run. When I was 20, I wouldn't have done that, and burned a bridge like that. My dad taught me better than that. But I'm a couple generations older, and my dad was a no-nonsense Marine. He wouldn't tolerate quitting on anything. Kids are a lot different these days. [/QUOTE]
