Sorry if it’s been posted or a bit off topic but what’s the progress on Luke Goode? Couldn’t find an update online.

- respect my decision™
If we guard (and I think we will), we'll win.
Nothing official, but I see he is still on crutches.
Thanks.
The announcer mentioned during the Monmouth game that he’s been progressing well and hopes to be back in January. That’s all I’ve heard.
Spark plug doesn't quite cover it. It's more like a jumper cables to a soaking wet Mel Gibson Lethal Weapon thing. I mean HE WAKES IT UP. I had just commented, "I'm starting to question Underwood's ability to coach this team... zero changes and we're down by 14. Where is Harris when we need him?" and sure enough in comes Harris. All my friends razz me and it's "Ok let's see what he can do..." BOOM! Thank you, Mr. Harris. As you were.

Mid-January would be probably be the earliest for a return.
GET LOUD TOMORROW!!! ILL!
I have so much respect for Bennett after watching his press conferences from the NCAA tournament. The first when they lost as the 1 seed, and then the next year when they won it all. He is class.

Did the two of you end up reminiscing about the Flying Illini when you introduced yourself as "Battle89"?
He is still on clutch so that's all I know.

He should get an automatic transmission.

So I haven't watched Virginia play yet this year. My question for those of you who have seen them is this - Does Virginia have a two man game? I am concerned that they may have a two man game. How do we defend them if they have a two man game?
I think he's always going to be clutch
I rode on the elevator with Pitino at the hotel in St Louis at the final four my freshman year. I was picking up a pizza and was decked in Illini gear and he was also extremely nice and represented Louisville well! I also was peeing at one of the 3 games and I looked to my right to see a monster diamond earring. As I'm admiring it, the gentleman turns and for a brief moment looked me in the eyes with some of the most unique, pretty brown eyes I'd ever seen. I realized at that moment I was pissing next to Chris Paul. Only other time I'd ever seen him IRL was earlier that year when #1 Wake found our they weren't #1 at #3ILL in the ACC/B1G challenge. Anyways, took tomorrow off work to hang with the boys and watch the games. LFG! ILL!

So did you get a look at anything other than the earring and his eyes?
Yea. UVA has the slowest tempo in division one. Ranked 363. In the Baylor game they shot 35 FTs! 24 fouls on Baylor. 2 guys fouled out. And UVA were 9/14 3s. Crazy numbers.
For a supposedly good defense their D against Baylor was terrible. They didn't have any player under 113 drtg. The avg was probably around 125. [e.g. most of our players were in the 90s for the UCLA game] Starting 5 are all SR/JR. Very experienced. Their bench isn't very good. They basically played 6 in the Baylor game. Hot shooting and getting fouled carried them to victory. I think we got this.
I remember Pitino not very impressed with our 2005 team in the pregame press conference. And then we kicked his team to the curb.
Same way we’ve defended all year. Switch
