@Pg_Reinhardt That was literally my view of that play. I almost couldn’t believe it happened!

@witzigdg @LukeEpplin Halfway thru it now. Really enjoying it! Remember those Sixers teams vividly!

@LukeEpplin . Just finished your book about Moses, Dr. J, Bobby Jones and the 82-83 76ers. Great book. I was a 12 year old and that team was so fun to watch. Well done.

@eddiekasper13 Excited to see what you do at Illinois! Loved watching you develop at ISU!

Know your role and embrace it! Blessed to have been around this program since my journey started!

𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞… From walk-on at Illinois State to wide receiver at the University of Illinois, @eddiekasper13 embodies what it truly means to be a leader. Kasper represents everything that comes with being genuinely in love with the game. His journey is a testament to hard work, passion, and the kind of character that leaves a lasting impact far beyond the field. Illinois didn’t just gain one hell of an athlete, they gained an even better person. After an incredible playing career, we can’t wait to see what Coach Kasper does for the game of football. 🫡 #QBEra

@RedbirdFB sent Appalachian State to FBS with an OT win in Boone, NC in round 2 of 2012 FCS Playoffs. And did the same in Fargo in 2025. 2 of the most prominent programs in FCS history lost to the Redbirds in their final FCS game. That’s quite a legacy!

@OzarkKent So Heyworth Harry came out of his burrow on northbound 51 and didn’t see his shadow? I’ll take it!

I don’t run to social media to discuss politics, but I want to talk about that groundhog today. Any groundhog in Central Illinois who saw his/her shadow this morning is not telling the truth and on the take. Spring is right around the corner! Enjoy!

Still feeling the sting of disappointment this morning but am so proud of @RedbirdFB,
Both as an ISU alum and as a member of the @ISU_Learfield broadcast team. What an outstanding game, and @JohnFitzPBP & Ted Schmitz were on top of their game last night. Thanks for a lot of fun!
