'Wilk' Lands In Chicago

Green Alert Take: No question, it's a tough time to lose a coach but Wilk has earned his first head coaching job after serving on Buddy Teevens' staff since 2005. It's a chance for him to return home (he's an Eastern Illinois grad) and work at another outstanding academic institution, so it's all good.
