I’m not sad for me, I’m sad for the players. They deserved a better ending.

This season has been freshly written legend for Illini Nation. Regardless of today’s result.
We will remember this forever. We will tell of its story to our children with nostalgic and joy in our voices.
And I thank all of you for sharing this season with me.
Special thanks to Pruman for his support throughout the season. And for being a soulful and festive human being who appreciates mathematically surreal bodily proportions. May you enjoy enduring health and peace for many seasons to come.
My sincerest wishes for healing and honored remembrance to all of those in our community who have lost loved ones this season.
This season was beautiful.

Nah, he's crying because he knows this is goodbye to this group, who were very connected. There's also probably some personal frustration mixed in from not playing very well today.I have a terrible feeling that Ty is gone because of how tearful and upset he is. I hope I'm wrong...
Wow. Yeah, 30-0 runs don’t help out. Damn.I mean… other than that 30-0 run we really hung with them!
A season to remember. A game to forget.

Frankly, Ty needs to expand his game to be effective at this level in todays game. The book is now out there on him. The Rodman comparisons are true, but that was 30 years ago, and the game has changed..I have a terrible feeling that Ty is gone because of how tearful and upset he is. I hope I'm wrong...
I don't read it that way. I think he was upset because he cares. What reason does he have to leave? He has been given plenty of opportunities, but he has to learn to shoot. That is on him.I have a terrible feeling that Ty is gone because of how tearful and upset he is. I hope I'm wrong...
I mean… other than that 30-0 run we really hung with them!

Ty's going to come back and be something special next year. Sometimes you need to be beat by the best and look awful to raise your game to the next level. He really grew this year and I look forward to see him back next year after a summer to think about this and grow.This loss sucked, but seeing Ty crying ruined my night lmao. Great season overall! Can't wait for next season
