- Gurnee
He played 25 min.
Sencire harris is gonna be a trent frazier like fan favorite within a year.....so fun to watch.
Coleman had a bad game on O overall, but i look at the box score and see 7 assist.....his defense was great all game IMHO
TSJ.......wow, just wow
Thought the freshman overall had some jitters, made soem bad plays and made some good ones, theyl grow from these two games
Want more from mayer/RJ still, but im not too worried, there were flashes
Dain dainja is lookkng like hes for real at least on teh scoring...his rebounding against this type of comp wasnt as good, but he clearly can play offense at this level...damn near left dudes in the dust multilpe times on those post spins
This team is fun......theyl probably make us lose hair at some point but their effort and athleticism is flat out fun to watch

If Terrence Shannon can shoot, non-NBA players can pretty much just forget about guarding him.
I said let's win! LOL I got you tho!
Was looking for a Butch and Sundance gif!
Well, that proves it. BU can't make adjustments in big games.
Sencire has found his niche. Bring him off the bench when the team needs to get reminded how to play. Kid is a firestarter.
It takes a second to process this one, but it's really an incredible stat.
Yes, indeed it appeared that we were playing in the house of paign with all the orange I saw in the arena way to represent illini fans!!
I couldn't believe that guy sagged off of him for that last dagger 3!
We just wanted it more than UCLA. I give them credit. They came back after we had the lead in the first half but our quickness and length was ultimately too much for them to handle.
Not sure how we won since BU doesn't play freshmen

BEWARE THE IDES OF THE FIGHTING ILLINI......ucla poked the monster and the monster consumed them.............
What a gut check win for our guys. It looked like things would snowball when it was 44-29. Enter Sincere Harris. He completely changed the game for us. Tell you what man these frosh are big time ballers man. TSJ man, dude was on a mission on both ends of the floor.
Clean up the turnovers. Too many silly ones, particularly at the end when we were trying to finish them off. Cut those in half and we're golden. But I will say, 21 turnovers and we still manage to beat the #8 team by near double digits tells you just how special we can be.
Like I said before, this isn't even our final form.

Glad they get a day off between games. Looks like they put it all out there tonight. In the words of Giorgi, “Amazing!”
No. Iowa last year, BTN tourney the year before.
His defense and length remind me of Stephen Bardo back in the 80’s for those of you old enough to remember.
