After being there for five seasons, the fighting Illini’s head coach, John Groce, was fired today. The reason for the firing is likely due to the Illini’s lack of wins in the past few weeks, and the fact that Illinois will likely miss their chance to compete in the NCAA for the fourth season in a row. As of right now, it is unclear as to who will be replacing John Groce as head coach.
