Bill Cubit is a man of the people.
Really.
At Monday's news conference, the interim Illinois coach reminded everyone he's a regular guy who is OK with dinner out at Biaggi's hours after a really big win (like the last-second 14-13 thriller against Nebraska).
There's proof to this claim.
Many fans told of Cubit's interaction at the Champaign restaurant, including Brian Dietz and Cole Henke. Those two asked Cubit to pose for a photo at dinner Saturday night.
Coach said yes with a smile.
"I remember those guys," Cubit said Monday of the picture.
