    I thought the loss to Maryland, or northwestern, or Penn State etc was supposed to do that... This team is what it is. Fun but flawed.

    Penn State 90, Illinois 89 Postgame

    This may be an unpopular opinion, but once Domask started getting huge minutes, almost 40 a game, this team's defense has totally collapsed. And for the love of all things holy, please do not allow him to bring the ball up the court ever again. Again, down the stretch no TR or QG... You trust...

    Game Thread: Illinois at Penn State

    Is there a reason Domask brings up the ball so much? He's clearly not a good ball handler...

    Northwestern 96, Illinois 91 OT Postgame

    Is there a reason BU refuses to sub players in the second half? Seems to be a recurring theme. These guys aren't robots. They need to catch their breath. Throwing a relatively fresh Ty on Boo down the stretch may have helped.

    Can someone elaborate on what this tweet was?

    Illini Volleyball 2023

    For those in the know, what's happened to Illinois volleyball? Hard to believe it's fallen so far so fast. Is it coaching, recruiting, injuries, facilities... combination of everything? Are there investments being made into the program to help turn things around?

    That's just the residue of the fire earlier this week...

    You either haven't been watching Illini football long enough or have a small imagination lol The 6-0 then 0-6 season would like a word with you... But I hear you. There was going to be an inevitable drop off on D with the studs we lost, but that side of the ball is holding their own all things...

    We can't lose all those players to the NFL and not expect a drop-off.

    The mascot debate/fandom thread

    The answer to everything is very simple... We either have a Lincoln mascot and change our name to the Thinkin Lincolns or make Alma (just Alma, not the otter) the new symbol/mascot. First option is mostly for jest, but the second is a serious suggestion. She's beloved by everyone associated...

    And 9 times out of 10, the call will go against the Illini when that type of play is under review.

    Indiana 80, Illinois 65 Postgame

    I don't think either of them are as athletic as TJD. Dickinson is really stiff... Not as worried about him. Edey is obviously a load, but at some point they're going to start calling fouls on him... Pretty unbelievable he has more blocks than fouls this year.

    Indiana 80, Illinois 65 Postgame

    Why didn't BU throw the kitchen sink at TJD? It was 1:1 all night... Clearly it was a mismatch with DD... Heck put Lieb out there for a couple minutes just to change his sightlines. Anyone know why SH is starting over Epps? I love SH's toughness and energy, but Epps is clearly the better ball...

    Northwestern 73, Illinois 60 Postgame

    I don't recall BU being so angry... And borderline unhinged...his entire time here. He's always been fiery, but this is something else. One moment that stuck out to me today was during the second half. Epps came out after making a silly foul or TO and the camera caught BU just going off on...
