Illinois announces hire of head coach Lovie Smith via photo
The former Bears and Bucs coach hasn't worked at the college level in a
couple decades, but he's won a bunch of games in this state.
FOX Sports' Bruce Feldman reports Smith is "expected to become the next
Illini head coach," with former Illinois head coach Ron Turner being the link
between new Illini AD Josh Whitman and Smith. Feldman also reports Smith
would be interested in bringing his sons with him on staff. Mikal Smith was a
Bucs safeties coach.
The 2005 NFL coach of the year and three-time NFC North champion seems to
remain a popular name in the area. His last three Bears teams went 29-19 in
the regular season, and Chicago's record since his firing is 19-29.
There'd be a lot to like about Smith, assuming he'd bring in a coaching staff
that could produce better offenses than his NFL teams tended to feature. In
11 years, only two of his teams' offenses ranked in the NFL's upper half in
yardage. Defense wouldn't be much of a worry, though, and the off-field
benefits would be considerable.
Football 爛了快十年, 是也該揚眉吐氣一下了.
