Hey, it’s a riddle that I understand this time!

I know I am in the minority, but I hate the way the new system is tearing apart rosters. How do I even start to care about a team that is 90% new every season? I am not a fan to just root for the laundry. I want consistency in players. And if that means we are a step below the best, I can...

Can we agree to not crap on our legacies on this board? No? Yeah, I guess that was asking too much. Chester will always be an Illini to me. He played to the best of his abilities when he was here and he appeared to get as many quality kids as he could while he coached here. For that I am...

This conversation tells me I know nothing about what’s happening on the basketball court at any time.

If we’ve been in the Championship game 1/3 of the years since 2000, I feel that’s reason to celebrate the B1G. Sure, it’s been a long time since one of us has won the whole thing, but being a participant in 33% of this millennium’s games definitely puts a dent in the “Big 10 isn’t the...

Ty knows that this was a special group and he’s feeling it.

And NOW they call fouls.

But we all knew they’d get called for that stuff against Duke.

We honestly don’t expect to win, but it’s a fun lottery ticket. $10 bet pays out $72k. Had we picked Duquesne outright, the total payout would have been over $100k.

My son and I are doing a stupid 17 game parlay on Draft Kings and taking the points on this game was one of our big reaches. Should have taken the Dukes outright.

Giving up however many points in the last four minutes to lose 90-89 is no better than losing 38-33. One was a game with no offense and the other is a game with no defense. That game was the nadir of the Bruce Weber era. What will this game be for Brad Underwood?

Not laggy for me tonight.

Last time I was there, I parked in the lot across the street from the arena for free. No problem.

I know this is a fan site, but if at all possible can we refrain from statements like “our season is ruined” and the like? Whether the charges are accurate or they are not, someone’s life has been ruined by this accusation. The basketball season success should be our last concern if we are...

Where is the best spot to park for the game these days? We used to park in the lot next to the cemetery, but last time I was over that way it was blocked off.
