    Just started using the Ignore Button. Been a lurker and or a Loyalty participant about 25 years. One ignore button yesterday, one more today. Hey Kids, don't take drugs and don't respond to trolls.

    Does this mean we are reeling a 5 that is a major upgrade to Amani?

    Yep. That was my thinking too. I suppose he could have been a little more subtle, but he is naturally aggressive which I like.

    Very good post, And reasonable! The Committee will always take heat (from almost any fan, etc.) because it is an impossible job to please anybody (everybody.) THAT BEING SAID (sorry) I think they do a solid job.

    Games Thread - The Final Four

    As usual I am enjoying color commentary by Bill Raftery. Noticed he isn't saying "Onions" after baskets anymore. Instead, it's "Gathering his Puppies."

    Hmm. Maybe he did but it seemed that he missed every shot in the last 5 games. I know that I grumbled way more about his game than any other Illini player.

    Nah. Bonner was fine. I know it's annoying when he kept pointing out us screwing up, but that's part of his job. Tell me what should he say? Eh?

    Agreed. I do think he has surpassed Spoon and Ayo and all our other greats.

    Pregame: Illinois vs Duquesne, Saturday, March 23rd, 7:40pm CT, TNT

    Duquense with 7 blocks and 7 steals verses BYU. Tough defense. They get in their opponent's grill. Very aggressive.
