And unlike the team eight years ago, this is a legit top 10 team that will be there from start to finish.It feels like a dream seeing us that high. It really does. Illinois is a top 10 team. It's been a long 8 years.

Been any discussion on the Emerald Classic lately? I see ESPN is reporting today that 8 tourneys are projected to move to Orlando.
Perhaps I missed something, but it seems like the Emerald is still a go.
That's a real bummer. My nephew moved to Tampa area a few years ago and we were really looking forward to watching this together while he was home to visit. I was going to test his new allegiance to the Florida Gators. In actuality, he is still an Illini Basketball fan....but done with Illini football.Not happening from what I understand, potentially. There’s a lot of shifting going on right now with scheduling and teams backing out of non-conference tournaments for more favorable ones.
Because we’re a top 10 preseason team with star power on our squad this could benefit us as a potentially attractive option for other top teams who my look to host or line up other tournaments elsewhere...
It's about time we got back to that status quo.The games against Iowa are going to be epic
One of you guys who are so good with embedding videos, please find the old "fans don't forget" ad where the Illinois Trooper goes after a car from North Carolina.
Yep...nicely done! I love that ad...until they show the end of the game. It still makes me burn seeing Droopy Dog cutting the net for his “scholarly” young men.
Was this the one?
"Sources: The ACC/Big Ten Challenges is moving forward..."
Thank you, Sources!
With our experience and depth, I think we can handle a road game better than most years. I don't think there's anyone in the COUNTRY we need to be afraid of --should compete with anyone they have.
Find yourself someone who loves you the way Andy Katz loves the Illini
Be surprised to see more than a few spectators. Great time for an away game.Bring on Duke on the road! Unless things drastically change, Cameron will not be rocking!
yeah that's bad, name me 11 players better than Ayo in the country I'll wait.Lindy's College Basketball is out
Illini - Ranked 12th in nation, 3rd in Big10.
Ayo - Ranked 12th in top 150, not in 3 team All-America, 1st team Big10
Kofi - Ranked 22nd in top 150, 3rd team All-American center, 2nd team Big10
Bring on Duke on the road! Unless things drastically change, Cameron will not be rocking!
I can't remember what year it was but didn't we win at Duke one year breaking a really long home win streak of theirs?
You don't have to wait, that's what Lindy's just did.yeah that's bad, name me 11 players better than Ayo in the country I'll wait.
I get that, but how does the 11th ranked player not make one of 3 All American teams???You don't have to wait, that's what Lindy's just did.
