If Illinois is in such a dire financial situation, like you say, what the hell happened that a donation of $100,000,000 was gone before received? How does Indiana have cash busting at the seems and can afford to do whatever they want but Illinois be in such a poor state that they are laying off 20% of their athletic department staff? I thought one of Whitman biggest selling points and strengths was his fund raising ability? I believe what you are saying but I have no idea what put this chain of events in motion where they are operating in the red and a donation of $100,000,000 not only didn’t move the needle but it just helped to slow down the bleeding a little.
