Ben wow
Jak and Tomi are some of most
smoothest and mature “freshmen” I’ve seen in a long time.

There will be some night where we are hitting every three in sight and we score 115-120 points. The shooting form of these guys is not something I've seen on an Illini team before.

Nice job stopping their transition there.
Only 1 turnover. I'll take that.
It'll take time but once his positioning gets up to speed, he has potential to be a very good defender for the reason you mentioned. Really nice length and really great recovery speed. Right now he's a bit lost playing on instinct. Looking forward to seeing him progress
Pretty good first half. We make 80% ft we would be blowing them out with a 20 point plus lead
Take that IU

They are gonna have to work the ball around and look inside. Can't just keep chucking it up from the cheap seats. Especially when the competition turns tough.

Considering how fast we play on offense, that's an impressive statistic. This could be a really fun year, even if there are some bumps along the way.
Very good response after they cut it to 5. 18-5 run to close the half.
Loved everything about that half other than the defensive rebounding and FT shooting. Tomi and Ben … WOW.

Illini playing some tough D tonight..........we have soooooo many weapons this year and we are making some great passes also......Ben to Will for the dunk was beautiful................
Ben is hitting his 3's tonight......I think he is going to get better every game as he becomes accustomed to our style of play.......
We have the best 10 man rotation that I can remember in a long time...........The Illini could average 85 + points a game if we keep hot on our 3's..............

Yup...and believe me....that works.
KJ might get that triple double this game
Rebounding not a plus.
TOMI’s shot is pretty
