When #Illini head coach Bret Bielema says he believes in DNA, he means it. This season's team includes FIVE sets of brothers. It seems the program really does stick to "FamILLy." Read: 247sports.com/college/illino…
FamILLy gathering: Illini 'believe in DNA' with five sets of brothers on 2025 team

Part of Illinois' depth involves an impressive amount of blood family.

I want to express my gratitude to my hometown and the city of Greenville, Texas, for the case display at the Hunt County Historical Center. I apologize for not being able to attend, and I appreciate my family for their support. I am truly thankful to God for allowing me to pursue my dreams and now have the opportunity to coach young men as they strive to achieve theirs.
