well, you just jumped ahead to 36 and you're all caught up!Come on guys
I am still on page 20 of this thread
Slow down

Our crew went to Murphy’s last September and October as we have every year since we graduated. As undergrads in the early ‘70’s, we never went there because they only allowed 21 and over in. Still has great food. The mushroom Swiss burger is still delicious as are the fries. The old thin section to the left as one enters is still the same, with carved tables in the back, leading to a downstairs with pool tables, and the section to the right doubles the space. There are even garage door windows now on the front of the building that open up to the sidewalk. Great place to celebrate victories and newly committed recruits.When I was there in the early 2010s there was the entrance which was led into a long and skinny section with the bar, which then wrapped around to another area which had the downstairs entrance and the kitchen area where you ordered. There was then another additional space further to the right that may be the supposed second expansion.

90% sure it’s Nance… 10% chance it’s some dude named Lance34 pages in one day in the recruiting thread? Peak Loyalty madness! Just for confirmation, though...is it Pete Nance everyone is hoping to get?
Nance is a big time upgrade….40+% from 3, 23% d rebound rate(or close to that)Long-time lurker, first-time poster.
Read this article earlier today when the Nance talk got fired up: https://www.insidenu.com/2022/3/12/...xpert-ben-pfiefer-on-northwesterns-pete-nance. Seems like Nance is nice player but ceiling seems fairly low. Hawkins to me is a bit of a wild card but has a much higher ceiling. Not sure I would want to risk it with Hawkins unless it's a big-time upgrade.
No, I’m not joking. IMO Hawkins has a much higher ceiling. And according to a people on here, you’re not getting both so your point about PT for both is a moot point.You're joking, right? Nance >> Hawkins. Plus we need bigs. Plenty of minutes for both.
Nancy has played four years of college ball already. Right now, he's better than Hawk. But I think Hawk can get there. May never shoot 45% from 3 like Nance, but IMO he's a better rebounder already.I don't think so. Nance shot 45 percent from 3. Hawk shot 23 and 29 the last two years. I don't see him ever being that productive offensively. Nance is better than Hawk now but I do hope you are right about Hawk getting better.

This situation is someone's thesis on social media psychology expressed in gif form.
Not sure where you got low ceiling… He’s talking about him in terms of NBA skills.Long-time lurker, first-time poster.

Agree 100%. It was a great trip, except for the game. As we’re walking into the Superdome there’s an Illini fan wearing an orange Illini flag as a cape chanting “Kurt Kittner… you can’t stop him”… turns out they could…I was there, waaaaay at the
Being on bourbon Street was a blast despite all the drunk LSU fans chanting “tiger bait” in your face every block
Yeah I know someone else pointed out how blessed we were for 3 years of not generally needing to go deep to our bench at the 5.Nancy has played four years of college ball already. Right now, he's better than Hawk. But I think Hawk can get there. May never shoot 45% from 3 like Nance, but he's a better rebounder already. Right now, Hawk and Dainja are our only playable PF/Cs so we absolutely need to add someone.
Been said a million times, but worth repeating, I don't know of another college fanbase that is as hungry as Illinois is to get the National Championship monkey of their back.100+ likes- y’all are wild. What a day
That would seem to confirm that there were two rounds of expansion. When I was there, the grill was on the right as you walked in, and you ordered food just past it. After that was a short bar (still on the right), and then the back was seating. There was no wrap around, or downstairs. I don't think the place legally held 40 people, emphasis on legally.When I was there in the early 2010s there was the entrance which was led into a long and skinny section with the bar, which then wrapped around to another area which had the downstairs entrance and the kitchen area where you ordered.

I only wish this had been posted by Bryce Hopkins. That would've been better meta.Hryce Bopkins
I think that's very well put. Nance is a really good player right now. Hawkins, you hope, gets to that level in a couple years.Not sure where you got low ceiling… He’s talking about him in terms of NBA skills.
I’ll put it this way. Hawkins’ ceiling is to be come a Pete Nance type player. A guy who can shoot, pass, facilitate, defend & hopefully have a shot at making a NBA roster. This is by no means a shot at Hawk. Pete is a very good player.
