Game Thread: Illinois vs Fairleigh Dickinson

[McGuppin]

Hot Take: We STILL Really Good

Yep...lots of guys stepping up. Who had Harmon, Dain and Ty on their trifecta? Nice job, fellas.

 

[skyIdub]

I don't mean like Harmon and Dain, no.

I would like to see more DGL...but I think that's the end of the rotation honestly.

Edit: Maybe some Hansberry sprinkles.

 

[Illini89]

Domask clearly has been too open and just needs to take contested, rushed 3s. Slump over

I hope so ugly stretch

Hopefully this is Ty taking it to the next level. If so, we are still going to be Top 10 good.

# 11 ranked Fighting Illini showing tonight we are a team to be reckoned with.........Roster full of players capable of taking over a game with hustle , unselfish play and HEART !!!!!!!!!!..............I do love this year's team.......I really really do................

Ty having one of the best "phantom" games ever. 8 pts. 12 boards, 5 assists. Only two TOs against a press.

That is specifically what I am hoping for. And if we end this blowout with seven guys getting 25 minutes, then I won't complain very loudly. But.. look at the score and tell me that participation would do anything but help this team stick together. Proud of everyone so far.

Coleman hitting open 3s is my favorite Coleman

YOU get a 3 and YOU get a 3 and YOU get a 3

 

[aaeismacgychel]

This has not been CoHawk's best defensive performance lol

I hate to be "that guy", but in a year when the NET rankings are going to be oddly judged for us, winning by 40 wouldn't be a bad thing.

 

[abchew2]

Harmon passed around the super drink at halftime lol

 

[IlliniGman7795]

We're gonna score over 100, without our top player

 

[skyIdub]

Ok...desperation corner Domask is the best Domask.

 

[foby]

DGL YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[abchew2]

Ok...desperation corner Domask is the best Domask.

Need to start running sets for him there

 

[InDaAZ]

Not so bold prediction...with TSJ out, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say whether we like it or not Coleman's gonna be throwing up 3s like he's steph Curry. I say he launches 8 tonight.

He’s hitting ‘em like Steph…
Pretty sure that’s not what you meant, though!

When did Latulip join BTN?

First game

 

[Illini_1105]

Ty
Harmon
Goode
Hawk
Dainja

 

[New Creation]

Brad yelled at DGL and then turn and had the biggest smirk on his face. He loves this team.

 

[illiniguy24]

Fuq it. Let’s score 120

 

[illinifreak30]

DGL is so fast, like Dee Brown Fast

 

[Illini_1105]

First game

Honestly, I love it. Selfishly I wish it was going worse because I like his coverage of the team, but he is a fantastic color guy tonight

 

[Illwinsagain]

I think that is 3.... and counting.
