    Andre Curbelo in the transfer portal

    He had talent but this year was a rough year for him. When healthy he tried to do too much and became out of control with his turnovers. Never could shoot ... shot 33 % from field this year which is awful and 17 % from 3pt for a guard which doesn't warrant lots of playing time. I think the...

    Game Thread: Illinois at Marquette

    They run no offense. Just Belo dribbling and maybe a screen roll. Is this the state of basketball now. My goodness.

    Adam Miller transfers to LSU

    Lovie Smith out at Illinois

    Lovie is a good man. Sorry it didn’t work out. We need to get a young Coach that can bring energy and excitement to the program. I would call Coastal Carolinas Coach.

    Purdue 31, Illinois 24 Postgame

    Really can't truly evaluate 2020. I would say with the entire late start, COVID issues, less games, no nn conf games .... it best to look at this year that it didn't happen. Losing double figure players hours before the game was impossible to overcome. Just think what mindset of team was after...
