Game Thread: Illinois vs Missouri

[Iamgroot]

I find myself sitting here begging for him to pick up 2 quick ones …

Brad continuing to play him is absolutely ridiculous … Horrendous coaching … And he needs to be held accountable …

Let our 5 star freshman PLAY !!!!!!

Totally agree it's a shame riley isn't getting time over him.also has me kinda worried about castanza watching this game and wondering if he came here would he have a slow older defensive liability get game time over him like what's happening with riley

His 1 on 1 defense is so soft. He needs to hard foul someone...his positioning isn't bad but he doesn't ever go for the ball or body then so they know it's there all day.

Yes! Let him get physical.

I’m not saying Ben shouldn’t play at all, I just don’t understand the amount of minutes he gets

I’m saying he shouldn’t play at all …

Ben Humrichous is not one of the 7 best players on our roster.

Someone make sense of this.

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

Boswell with some really nice passes so far

He’s been really good …

Defensive liability shooting bricks after bricks.

Luke Goode without a jump shot.

I can’t … Brad is stubborn … It’s getting ridiculous …

He just needs to admit he screwed up in recruiting and sit him …

Morez, Booth, Davis should all be playing over him …

Defensive liability shooting bricks after bricks.

The bricks look good on film. You just don't understand what you're watching.

Morez and Will can miss shots and still provide plenty of other pluses on the court. Active defense, rebounding, screening, etc.

Coaching staff stubbornly trying to make some kind of point? That's all I got. Nothing else makes any sense.

Missing bunnies again

Luke Goode without a jump shot.

Goode could rebound a little.

 

[BigMuddyMonster]

eating crow on Tre White. Dude is a nice cutter and has some dog in his game. Riley needs to take some lessons.

I’m in the camp a year back would do him wonders. He would be a monster.

 

[SescIllini]

Wow, we have interior defensive and offensive presence, how did this happen?

Mizzou forced to take 3s and unable to trap our PG. Amazing what two legitimate bigs can do.

That’s disrespectful to Goode honestly … He was an EDG …

It's a sunk cost at this point. Brad keeps running him out there hoping to see something change.

It's not going to change.

Trying to make it work is only going to make things worse.

 

[FloridaMan]

Only up 3 and Mizzou has had droughts of 4 minutes and 3 minutes. Not great.

 

[Get yourself a new map]

That’s GARBAGE!!!!!

 

[SuperMetroid]

How does Perkins still have eligibility

And it ain’t like we’re trying to save some AAU relationship or he’s got a 5 star little brother …

Quit starting him … Sit his on the bench … Pathetic by Brad …
