coleman hawkins apparently..he's been the o rebound king lately ha
and a nice 5:1 A/TO ratio...
and forced verge into 5 TOs, and some of the shots he forced verge into may as well have been TOs
Trent on the season is 40% from the field and 39% in his career........so 4/10 is right on normal for him.
tahts bush league, he did it to trent in the first half too, and i think once to kofi
He’s not wrong. In real time it was hard to follow. On the radio feed, Brian wasn’t sure and then mention him raising his hand. Watching the video, that looked like a violation.
Probably because they've graded out higher in practices and previous games in a way that they've earned the chance to see the floor before garbage time.
Seems likely he was trying to make movement in Frazier's peripheral vision. Perhaps just enough to throw his aim off slightly. Gamesmanship at the very least.
I hope the program finds a spot for Trent sometime in the future. He has worked hard and done things the right way from day one. Class act all the way. CASH!!! Will his jersey hang from the rafters someday?Frazier helps No. 25 Illini hold off Huskers
He scores season-high 29 points in 81-71 road victory.www.stltoday.com
LINCOLN, Neb. — Once again Illinois got all it could handle during a visit to Nebraska.
Trent Frazier scored a season-high 29 points, Kofi Cockburn had his eighth straight double-double with 16 points and 13 rebounds, and the 25th-ranked Illini held off the struggling Cornhuskers for a hard-earned 81-71 victory Tuesday night.

Trent is the epitome of every day guy.....................total dedication and pride in his school , team and coaching staff..........It's been such a pleasure to watch him come in as a frosh and do what was needed of him , such as scoring early on in his career and blossoming into an Elite defender , ball handler and heart of the team.....
I will miss seeing # 1 out on the court next year , so I'm gonna enjoy every second left this year.....Hopefully we can go on a deep deep run( 6 games) in the dance and give him a thrilling conclusion to his Illini career.....................
Well, if you're familiar with arrested development, you should be familiar with "forget me nows". Those would solve your problem
Love that reaction from Belo!
I think the bigger issue was Underwood not sitting Kofi earlier. He was obviously gassed at the 5 minute mark (and really before then). Payne had already been playing well. Should've sat him through the under 4 timeout and then put him back in to finish the game. Instead, tired Kofi = fouling kofi and were put in a bit of a precarious situation. Luckily Omar played fantastically.Maaan when Underwood pulled Kofi I was so ready to start up another week long argument about sitting players in foul troublebut good god was that a good decision
You should care much less about what ESPN has to say.
I care that Illinois gets national exposure, and ESPN is national exposure.
Trent had a great second half. No one had a good first half. Trent was pressing and pounding the ball when everyone should have worked through Kofi to get him shots and space the floor. They did a much better job of this in the second half. It lead to more layups and open looks. We still missed too many open looks when Kofi made good passes plus Kofi missed FTs. The last 4 minutes Omar and Trent were huge with some other key plays off the bench. I dont think Trent would say he played great in the first half.The dude doesn't have an off night in my book. Confidence is through the roof at all times. If the shots not falling, you know he is going to defend hisoff ...
Trent doesn't get near the respect he deserves. The epitome of an Every. Day. Guy.
Which is exactly why he needs to be out there on the floor asap. It's literally eating away at him to sit.
