This team is lost in almost every way, including coaching. Remarkable and sad.
Game Thread: Illinois vs Ohio State

Any decent look OSU gets from 3 they bury, most of our great wide open looks from 3 are bricks. That's why OSU is up by 6. SImple as that really.
We got troubles fellas. Turnovers and poor shooting again. It's been the undoing these last few weeks.
Awful defense, 8 tos at half, just utter garbage. Once again underwood getting outclassed as an opposing coach draws up a solid game plan and we do nothing
What's that other new tournament that's not the NIT? That might be fun?
Cant win if you cant make shots
This why every FT is important. KJ is not playing like a top 5 pick. Sorry.
Guarantee Underwood's gameplan was to leave Royal open for 3... Guess what, he's made the same amount of 3's that our ENTIRE team has...
Also, do ya'll remember when we thought we could play good defense? Another half we give up 40 +
We have now given up 53 to Northwestern, 53 to Maryland, 40 to Nebraska, and 42 to OSU in ONE HALF. That's bad defense guys and gals.
Great teams end halves strong and we looked terrible late.

We can’t hit the broad side of a barn over the last month.
Horrible end to the first half.
Player who never makes a three makes 3 of them.... we can't throw a ball in the ocean from three AGAIN... familiar story.

That guy just threw it with two hands in the general direction of the backboard and it went in

They've made some real circus shots for sure. Highly contested threes, off balance fadeaways, etc.
And we are missing a lot of open looks.
We LOOK a lot better than some recent games but the score doesn't reflect that because we are just cold shooting.
This team is broken. Turnovers and chucking 3s
Different lineup, same coaching (or lack thereof), same result
Wings are really disappointing. No shows from Tre and Will on offense. Ben getting hunted on defense as usual
He's a stud but they need every point they can get, no?
Another underwhelming half of Illinois basketball. yay

Are we watching the same game?
I feel this season slipping away due to lack of shot making and defensive effort. Two very fundamental basketball needs.
