I absolutely love that the trophy is so big. Make it 20 feet.

Miznoz just lost their bowl game at the buzzer too.
And Pickett didn't go off on us like in previous games. 1/8, 3 pts this time around.Dedeicated to Ayo! Big difference from past games is that we had players to match their jumpy PFs. Grandison really started to play January of last year.
Also the tremendous 3 pt shooting and an improved Kofi
Hideous performance. I thought he had a couple of steals in there, but nope. ZERO steals. ONE assist. Game-high 32 minutes.And Pickett didn't go off on us like in previous games. 1/8, 3 pts this time around.
You're comparing our opening stretch of the season to the last few games where we've hit our stride. I'm not yet confident that we will keep that up, but we've had really good guard play the last few games.Demps very complimentary about guard play after the game. Wonder if it was his first time watching this team. Guard play has been horrendous at times. Maybe he does not understand sample size?
Regardless, hitting on all cylinders tonight, and against Div. 1 athletes...and Mizzou is pretty darn athletic and quick...if lacking in basketball skills. Give Mizzou credit for playing hard for a half...and give the Illini credit for continuing to march forward with their skills and team play. Illini just need to keep chopping wood and not accepting they are even near their potential....lots to learn....but the wonderful part of it all is they are learning and getting better every game. On to Fl. A & M and then four straight B1G wins before a huge showdown in W. LaFayette. Tougher, better, stronger, more unified.
And for Omar....you are a blessed young man with basketball skills this team needs. You can be a huge part of this team's success for a long period. Just listen to your coaches and eliminate the negatives. Believe in yourself and be Illini tough and competent.
He looked like he was about to lose his crap and commit a felony.And Pickett didn't go off on us like in previous games. 1/8, 3 pts this time around.
Prepping his exit strategy from Mizzou as we speakClownzo will have to sit down in his office and figure out how to move forward now.
I agree, you can’t compare the start of this season when so many players were injured or sick. Like Brad said they have had time to practice!Your comparing our opening stretch of the season to the last few games where we've hit our stride. I'm not yet confident that we will keep that up, but we've had really good guard play the last few games.
Moving forward for Martin has generally meant fooling the next school into hiring him. I'm guessing that's damn near impossible at this point.Clownzo will have to sit down in his office and figure out how to move forward now.
But, but, but he can recruit!Moving forward for Martin has generally meant fooling the next school into hiring him. I'm guessing that's damn near impossible at this point.
Look for him to occupy a spot on the bench in the Purdue coaching tree.
Are you not entertained!?!?So, did that satisfy everyone?
