John Groce is very, very happy with the effort and unselfish play his team has given him; Game 2 Monday vs. St. Francis of Brooklyn. #dechr

Devin Langford is making strongest move to be the 9th player in Groce's #Illini rotation, but he hasn't won coach's trust just yet. #dechr

#Illini coach Groce: Got beat off the dribble too much Friday night, had to help too much and gave up threes.

#Illini coach Groce: Still want to get up to 9 or 10 in rotation but that's up to the players.

#Illini coach Groce: St. Francis is an older team. Were 15-15 ast year with physical, nasty, tough guards.
