Wondered why there was never really a replay on the TV. It was never questioned. Who knows.Tried to find that at halftime. Wonder why it wasn’t reviewed?

Him and TrentHe may miss shot early in the game but when crunch time comes around he is the guy that you want shooting the ball.
Yea, lifting that chair over his head with a threatening intent, that's absolutely a felony, on or off the Court, only worse off the Court. De Sousa owes Snacks, cause that chair was gonna hit someone if Snacks didn't take it away, and De Sousa would have gone to jail, do not pass go, do not ever collect a NBA contract. Why does a 6'9, 245 pound guy need a chair for self-defense?It is not like he went for a chair, that is definitely outside the rules of war.
He seems to play with a chip on his shoulder everynight. I would imagine he will continue to play with a lot of intensity. He’s had past incidents, so i think he’s acknowledging the boundaries between a shoulder bump like in the miami game and stepping on a player.
Personally, I find it sad that our culture considers 18 year olds to be kids.
They are least young adults. They should be able to manage their emotions by this point. They should be certain to manage it at this level.
I used to think alot of things until I had kids and went through their maturing process. A typical 18 year old boy is anything but mature and far from always able to manage their emotions. I am pretty sure the general thought is their brains are not fully developed until mid 20s.Personally, I find it sad that our culture considers 18 year olds to be kids.

I have 3 all good kids - but they can do some dumb things while growing up. Oldest is now 28 and will be an MD. Of the younger two, 1 has a masters in the healthcare field, and the youngest is on path for a DPT - so they are not dumb and they are driven kids. Not bringing this up to brag in any way - rather to say smart and very caring kids, (who were not indulged or spoiled) can make stupid decisions because, well, their brains just aren't always fully developed. Of course, your mileage may vary. I was a low maintenance kid myself - so I wasn't prepared.I have 5 kids. The oldest is 11. But we are homeschooling him (and the others) with the intent of keeping out of the culture that I believe keeps in thos child like state for longer than any time in human history.
My parents raised me in such a way that I got married at 20 and starting having kids at 23 completely counter to my generation, but it's been nothing but a wonderful existence this far.
(If this is getting to OT, I'll stop.)

I'll only state that you haven't seen anything yet at 11. God bless and I wish nothing but the best to you - but when my children were 11, I didn't have a clue how dumb they can be at times later on - but you learn from your mistakes. You need to make mistakes to grow. FYI - I've also seen complete and utter disasters of kids who entered college who were sheltered and homeschooled. They didn't know how to make their own choices and hadn't been exposed to an environment like college before. We've all known spoiled kids go crazy as well. So, there is no panacea when it comes to raising kids.
I wish you and your children all the best in the years coming forward - and I too will end it there as it has gotten way off thread.

Watched replay of the game last night on BTN's Basketball in 60. I'm just not sure why people hate Dakich so much. He can be a bit much at times, but he often gives some good insight and was pretty effusive with his praise of the Illini and many of its players during the broadcast. I'm guessing some of the hate comes from the fact that he is pretty honest and if a team is playing poorly he says it -- and the Illini had a long stretch in the past few years when they played poorly.
Never underestimate the stupidity of teenagers. There are reasons that 18 year olds aren’t allowed to legally buy or drink alcohol. A lack of maturity and decision making skills to name a few.
Classy move here by AG, and a lot of really really classy replies by both Purdue and Illini fans.
I would have given this a love reaction if it were an option. I see why he rubs people the wrong way, but I don't think those people are particularly rational.
I don't mind Dakich for the most part. The only times he gets on my nerves is during Michigan or Indiana games... He has a hard time burying his bias during those broadcasts.Watched replay of the game last night on BTN's Basketball in 60. I'm just not sure why people hate Dakich so much.
