Well, Illinois cancelled its FLAAM game on Wednesday morning and was ready to play the following Tuesday. Theoretically, there should be enough time, especially since Michigan played without a full roster at Rutgers and it’s Covid cases may be staggered. But this IS Michigan we’re talking about, so…Given the CDC rules(ever changing) that only 5 days of quarantine are required.... I'd think they our game would be fine? Is that too optimistic? Unless they pull a stunt where they need two weeks of practice before they play....I'd think we'd be good to go?
Thursday would be the soonest they could come back. If anyone had symptoms they would be out longer. We don’t have room in our schedule to squeeze them in we would have to re arrange and push other games. My guess is Mich vs Illinois will be a a no contest. Not sure if it will be ruled a forfeit.Well, Illinois cancelled its FLAAM game on Wednesday morning and was ready to play the following Tuesday.

Plenty of time to reschedule. A no-contest or forfeit is way too soon to consider.Thursday would be the soonest they could come back. If anyone had symptoms they would be out longer.

Go Huskies!
EDIT: Wow, what a choke…
Kind of like running it down and then getting a 5 second call?Lol at them holding the ball to near the buzzer down 1 only to turn it over with 2 seconds left. I always cringe when coaches use that strategy, seems to backfire more often than not. You score as fast as you can when you’re down in the last minute.

We sure love throwing stones out of our glass house. The Michigan thing is a perfect example.
Michigan has ducked 3 top 10 matchups in the last 1-2 years. Even if every instance is “explainable,” the pattern is sketchy. Hardly the same as us missing one game (due to a dumb University policy…) against a team we were favored to beat and playing the game the second we were able to on one day’s practice…Kind of like running it down and then getting a 5 second call?

Kofi would have a field day against Villanova, they have little size up front.Think they’d kick ‘Nova out if they lost to DePaul? Down at half and currently #19. As an MBA alum, I’m cheering for DePaul regardless.
P.S. I hope we get paired to play AT DePaul soon for the Gavitt Games. The new arena looks awesome, and I anticipate the crowd would be about 50% Illini fans, possibly more.
I would have a hard time understanding nova with 5 losses staying in the top 25......Big East is not like the B1G or other P5 conferences .....JMHOThink they’d kick ‘Nova out if they lost to DePaul? Down at half and currently #19. As an MBA alum, I’m cheering for DePaul regardless.
