Similar comp but not near the size of Domask. He certainly got tough baskets but Domask's size and strength are just different.Andres Feliz??

63%, 40%, 90% 14 to’s. Every game expectation? 48% 39% 82% from the opposition would normally be a killer. But I thought we played good defense despite the nos. Just a very different game!Yeah that’s what I was meaning. We were extremely lucky to come back and beat UCLA/Texas. But tonight we controlled the game and we deserved to win
Lol where is that clip from and why do they still have an old school monitor in those offices.Hey Marcus, how do you feel about playing at the Garden??
The statistical models can be fun, but they shouldn't be taken all that seriously right now. At this point the models are significantly weighted by the preseason projections. We're a couple games away before those start getting severely weened out. It's really a no win situation for models as people want something that projects how good each team is but also wants the models to rank based on performance and those two things are rarely the same.Torvik must be smokin' some really good stuff this year, cuz I don't see 27 teams better than us. Each model has its flaws I guess; I'll take the on court results we're seeing right now.
We JUST played FAU and we haven't played Tennessee yet. Our schedule gets harder, but it hadn't really been hard to date.Uhhhh. We have played Marquette, FAU and Rutgers so far and now Tennessee on Saturday. I would say that’s difficult.
A definite early 2000s vibe. Or 1989. Waves and waves of contributions from all over the roster. My god, it’s full of starsIt's still early but this is the best I've felt about an Illini team in almost 2 decades
I think that's the key: he may have been questioning whether he could be one of the prime scorers on a team at this higher level. He was told he could be. With the Rutgers game he realized that he could be. And with that confidence, a monster has been unleashed.I mean he also put up 17 on the road at Rutgers who are the 13th ranked defense on kenpom.
I think he translates.
He’s an ACC shill / anti B1G guy since way back. He took over when Billy PACCker retired.Does Jay Bilas announce FAU’s game. What a homer.
Lmaooo. You should have seen it. Underwood had marker all over his face. Made me think he should get an assistant to handle that similarly to Bruce Webber. Jk of course….with Underwood at leastDidn't get to watch, sat at a choir concert instead! I assume by all the comments we played ok, shot FT ok, and shot the ball well.
I'm looking for the complaints and didn't see any, can someone highlight a negative, please. I won't be able to sleep tonight until someone says something negative.
- Brad's hair miscombed
- Geoff pant legs too high
- CoHawk surely did something negative after 20 positives
- TSJ had mismatching loop length on his shoestring?
Anything?
Yep, I agree. Just poking a little fun at them. I just hope we can continue to give max effort and give ourselves a chance to win against teams like Marquette, FAU, Tennessee, Purdue, etc. And get, and stay, healthy all year long and give ourselves a chance come March. It's way overdue for us.The statistical models can be fun, but they shouldn't be taken all that seriously right now. At this point the models are significantly weighted by the preseason projections.

Just think of the advanced stats right now as our fans before this game. Sure we've seen some good performances on the floor thus far but but but point guard!
