This. It is not about legitimate marketing. It's about legitimizing the Ed Martins.I agree Antigua is Kentuckifying us. Bunch of Lexington businessmen lined up with green to make this happen. Probably all belong to Antigua's country club. Hope I'm wrong. Some O and B businessmen need to keep him in town. This is the sad state of the game.
Antigua literally talked to Kofi today about going back to Illinois lolI agree Antigua is Kentuckifying us. Bunch of Lexington businessmen lined up with green to make this happen.

Awesome. We have our AC3 then.Antigua literally talked to Kofi today about going back to Illinois lol
It may be best if you just stop commenting for a bit. I'm sure when you changed jobs last, your boss said it was ok to flame you on social media because you had only yourself to blame.Why are you guys worried about people hurting his feelings? It was his decision to make, only person to blame is himself.
But the NCAA did.Kentucky hasn’t even passed the NIL
You have no idea how much horse racing and bourbon $$$$ are in play here........Fat cats here in Ky don't have a passion for a lot of stuff, but Big BLue means Big Green here in the boondocks.....NLI allows the Illini to start playing a $$$ game that UK perfected years ago , so we are playing catch up in a very fluid game....This. It is not about legitimate marketing. It's about legitimizing the Ed Martins.
Yeah, all Weber did was give the greatest season in Illini history that we'll all remember for the rest of our lives.That's probably when we hired weber. Or maybe 06 with IDKWTI
FIFYYeah, all Bill Self did was give the greatest season in Illini history that we'll all remember for the rest of our lives.
To be fair, even I could have coached that team to a Sweet 16. It practically coached itself.Yeah, all Weber did was give the greatest season in Illini history that we'll all remember for the rest of our lives.
That's not all he did. He set the program back 7-8 years too. Can't forget that.Yeah, all Weber did was give the greatest season in Illini history that we'll all remember for the rest of our lives.
I'm not a Weber worshiper but he took a team mostly recruited by Kruger and Self and did a better job bringing them together than Self would have. Wouldn't have been talented enough to win without Kruger and Selfs recruiting but Weber's coaching that year and the year before were impeccable. He made few mistakes.To be fair, even I could have coached that team to a Sweet 16. It practically coached itself.
Based on what evidence? Self built that team; Weber didn't. Self has subsequently won a national championship with a team he has build; Weber hasn't.I'm not a Weber worshiper but he took a team mostly recruited by Kruger and Self and did a better job bringing them together than Self would have. Wouldn't have been talented enough to win without Kruger and Selfs recruiting but Weber's coaching that year and the year before were impeccable. He made few mistakes.
Bill Self has finished 1st or 2nd in his conference in 22 out of the last 23 seasons, at 3 different schools. In the one season he didn't, he finished 3rd. He's been to the Elite Eight 10 times. Self's track record of "bringing a team together" is nearly unmatched.I'm not a Weber worshiper but he took a team mostly recruited by Kruger and Self and did a better job bringing them together than Self would have.
1989Yeah, all Weber did was give the greatest season in Illini history that we'll all remember for the rest of our lives.
FIFYWeber driving forklift.
There was an interesting take on this at IlliniBoard that essentially boils down to this being a covid thing.Anything can happen... I didn't expect this but you can't be suprised by anything anymore.
I assume he's going to Kentucky if
he doesn't stay in the draft
We've taken a ton of punches this offseason. I am far from an insider, but if he actually was going to come back to Illinois, he wouldn't be in the transfer portal. Guys who go in the transfer portal don't come back. Call it pessimistic/realistic whatever. It will hurt to see him in another college uniform.
