It is ZOOK TIME BABY

RON ZOOK IS READY!

Transition on coaching changes, as smooth as it has ever been. Really.

Has skied more times this summer than ever, bought a bunch of plants. "New things, excited lets get going!"

Coaching staff has done a really magnificent job. 

"Been there, gotten things done"

"Much like the attitude we had a couple years ago when we went to the Rose Bowl, actually have just as much if not more talent than that team."

Fritz Rock is coming, I know very little about him, other than his name is made for football. Also Zook says he is hungry, when in the right situations is useful I suppose.

"must be a better team in Rantoul than we were in the spring" pushing the personal accountability angle.

EXPANSION QUESTION ALERT

"with Big Ten Network expansion was inevitable. and thus the championship game was inevitable."

"I don't think there is any question I have something to prove, you have to win, that is what the profession is about."

Has it been that long since my last Zook press conference? This guy can filibuster anything by speaking 1000 words a minute.

With the Wrigley question,  I severely wish that Zook would once again take the mic and sing the seventh inning stretch at a Cubs game. That was a thing, man.

Martez Wilson question, concerning his health specifically. Zook says he is 100% now, will be ready for game one. A good Martez Wilson would be a HUGE boost this team.
