Big (man) challenge

Illinois has made it a priority to get Leonard quality touches in the post. In the past two games he's attempted 24 shots. And that's the goal, Weber said. They would like the big man to have 12-15 scoring opportunities in every game. Leonard grew frustrated early in the Penn State game when teammates weren't looking for him. "But in the second half I thought they did a great job of getting me the ball," Leonard said. "I know sometimes it's hard. They've got people hounding them on the perimeter. It's just a tough angle. I've just got to always remember to stay positive and keep playing."
