[QUOTE="KenR, post: 1545241, member: 177988"] Lou Henson set the bar extremely high for the future of Illini basketball. He also set the bar extremely high for the character of future basketball coaches who have, and will, run the Illini basketball program. Coach Henson never did a single thing that put the University, the basketball program or himself in less than honorable territory. I was never more proud than when Coach Henson went after Knight. Coach was not going to allow the university and the program to be unfairly demeaned and disparaged. Class and dignity is the everlasting hallmark of Coach Henson's tenure at Illinois. I'm so thankful that Coach Henson got to enjoy seeing the court of Assembly Hall be named for him. Thank you Lou Henson, may you rest in peace and may your family and those of us who love you be comforted through this time of grief. [/QUOTE]
