So we're going to get to it eventually.

And the fun thing is to survive in advance.

I was at the Bears last week, and just so awesome to see a couple guys that we recruited, a couple guys that left us, guys that have stayed with us.

Tooney is their starting, I believe, right guard, right?

And I had him at New England.

He played for a great friend of mine, Dave Doran, at NC State.

And when he was getting drafted, I remember Dave talking about how great a player he was going to be.

And now he's in this league.

One of the best players in our league.

Absolutely, yes.

Like, it's just...

And it's fun, you know, to see these guys have success and where it's at.

And, you know, shoot, we were in the studio here for, you know, 15 minutes waiting to see you guys.

And they have a couple of Illinois people come up to me and gave me a huge hug and tell me how excited they are.

There's a guy starting a law internship downstairs that he was just smiling ear to ear because he's an Illinois grad.

I think that's the part that I really enjoy now more than anything.

He's got three things going for him.

First, he has really good size and stature.

I think when people see his physical presence, they're going to be like, oh, one of these guys.

And he took off running the ball a couple times this spring.
