Bruce Weber has done it again. Another Thanksgiving week tourney, another loss to Bradley. Bradley 73, K-State 60. While on the topic of former Illini coaches in Kansas, the Jayhawks had to go to OT to beat Dayton (90-84) to win the Maui Invitational. Dayton looked really good.

Jeremy Werner@JWerner247 #illini Lovie: "We've been pretty good with penalties." Illinois is the most penalized team in the Big Ten. 1:09 PM - Oct 12, 2019 See. Lovie just isn't getting the credit that he deserves. The Illini are leading the Big Ten in a category and all people do is...

Hail Alma Mater, Ever so true...

If we want a winning NBA coach, we should just go after Steve Kerr. He also has strong Chicago ties. :D :thumb:

LARGEST LEAD: 19 2nd-11:14 (41-60) It's pretty easy to find this info here.

Yup, 3 T10 wins there and 0-6 T25 this year without another T25 on the horizon? :mad:

SFO is only a bridge away too. Lots of flights from ORD/SFO...

Wow. It's gotten really quiet on this thread. Did I miss something? :hand: Shouldn't the Illini be somewhere between Rutgers and Nebraska right now?

Yes, you're in the minority and talent in a P5 program w/o good coaching ain't worth a bucket of warm spit (... and that's why you're in the minority). Most people here want every recruit for the 2017 class to stay but if given the choice between keeping Groce and all of the recruits or losing...

Oh Yeah! And then boy lookout. It's Groce's "rope a dope" strategy. Finish near the bottom of the conference and just when no one is expecting it, WHAM! BTT champions! It's a down year in the B1G!

It's "capes" (olé) and "ladders". ;)

Steve Kerr!? In San Diego!? When did that happen!??? Did Stephen Curry go with him too? Oh crap! San Diego doesn't even have an NBA team! Are the Warriors moving? Why don't people ever tell me these things? :confused::tsk:

Check out how many times Henson's teams were blown off of the court by 20+ during those 5 seasons. Check out how many 19 loss seasons Henson had. Check out Henson's longest streak of B1G road losses. Check out the fact that if the NCAA Tourney had 68 teams in it when Henson was coaching, the...
