While I do agree that Quincy didn't get involved much at all today. I have a slightly different take on Ty. I thought Ty was trying out there, especially on defense and on the boards and that he was making the runs to get to the right spots, but I think nerves got to him. At least he looked very jittery out there. I mean that was an easy at least 4 if not 6pts for him on 2 less turnovers most nights this season. And a line of 6pts, 3rebs, 2asts with 0 turnovers in 13min looks much better. So he was involved but he really struggled.

Here's hoping he needed this day to get it out of his system and come out like a beast on Saturday. We're going to need him defensively and on the boards. It was painful seeing him come out like he did today, but if goes back to BTT Ty the next few games, then I'm glad this happened today instead of a stinker in a game where his play will be pivotal.

I think both Ty and Q will come out like gangbusters on Saturday. I’ll be surprised if they’re not big contributors.

If you don't think DGL has bought in, take a look at the sideline with Moretti.
Love this team

There are three major defining moments that have gone down in Illinois roundball history in the last several years.

Defining Moment #1:

When Trent stayed true to his lllini commitment and came to the Prairie State and became a beloved player.

Defining Moment #2:

When Home-State Ayo passed offers from more successful programs (at that moment in time) and said he wanted to come and help restore Illini basketball to greatness.... and became a beloved player.

And...

Defining Moment #3:

When Terrence Shannon Jr. passed up other offers to return to the State of Illini and thus (now) become one of the Illini All-Time Greats. And became yet another beloved Illini player.

Three Defining Moments in recent Illini history.

And now... time to make Defining Moment #4!... Just ahead... getting closer and closer...

I didn’t see this mentioned anywhere on the postgame thread, and I’ve been staying out of the game threads since the start of the Big Ten tournament (you’re welcome):

I thought today’s game was really well officiated. Not sure where those guys came from but they just let the teams play. Yes there was a late whistle here and a no-call there. But I thought they called it pretty fair, consistent throughout (most importantly), and didn’t interject themselves into the game.

So I guess this is a ref. appreciation post
😳🤢🤷🏽‍♂️
