20th BIG golf title for Illini. I think Ohio State leads with 23. I'm greedy, want more titles than Buckeyes. Can do with Coach Small at the helm. I just hope he can get out there this summer and play a !ot of competitive golf. Yes, I'm greedy. Wanted an Illini to win medalist this time. Oh, well.

Any of you more senior fans remember Mike's dad playing over at Huff?
No. But I remember that great 62-63 team*, Bill Small All-Big 10 guard. Could use him now. 16.9 points a game, according to archives. And Mike's brother, Andy, was a great Illini baseball player.

*Loyola got in the way

So, does the individual title revert back to the leader at the end of round 2?

Wondering where NCAA will send Illini men for a regional. Probably think they'll be doing Illini a favor by sending them to East Lansing. Illini deserve a plum assignment and good weather for a change. Doesn't really matter. Illini should emerge from any regional and make it to NCAA championship. Key word is SHOULD. But I remember last year - and so do Illini. Women to San Antonio ain't bad.

Wrong site, but gotta say NIU is leading by seven shots after round two at MAC Championship in Alabama. Go Huskies! Illinois Wesleyan, ranked #12 in DIII, goes for CCIW Championship later this week in Yorkville. Go Titans!

What a state of great college golf.

He's missing a tournament he normally plays... PGA professional championship

It'll be impossible for Coach (as long as he's Illini coach) to play in it since PGA Championship and PGA Professional Championship were moved up to May. Best bet for a Champions Tour appearance is Stricker's American Family in Madison in June, I think. Plus Illinois PGA events after the NCAA Championship.

I just discovered that former Illini Dylan Keating joined Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns for spring season. Played one or two tournaments as an individual and a couple of match play events.

Louisiana won Sun Belt Conference. Will go to a regional announced at noon today.

NIU won MAC. Regional for Huskies, too.

Did I hear that right during Golf Channel regional announcement show? Yes, I did. The talking head host pronounced Illini as Ill-in-nee. She caught herself next mention, started to say Illinnee but switched to safer Illinoy. Surprised she didn't pronounce it Illinoise. Inexcusable.

College Golfer Disqualifies Himself After Shooting 62 In US Open Qualifying​

The stupidest of rules are in the game I love the most. I am definitely pulling this rule out the next time they aerate the greens at my course and I have big money on the line.
