Game Thread: Illinois vs Duke

[madcrazeeballa]

Hamer will be FIRED … That’s not even a question anymore …

Kwa was always going to be temporary … He’ll be demoted back down …

Brad won’t fire his own kid …

Would Josh step in and move on from Tyler?

 

[OrangeKrush1981]

If Brad moves on, he won't have to fire his kid.

 

[FoundersClub]

Tyler should too. What merit did he have to be given the seat next to the Brad other than his last name?

This…

 

[Illiniindian]

I cannot agree less. Tell me the last time we were solid. I'm totally willing to allow for the sickness and injury...but this is coaching and there is no indication whatsoever that it will improve.

We were amazing beating UCLA. That was only a few weeks ago. I don’t believe those bad Groce and Weber teams I mentioned could have stayed within 15 points of UCLA.

Underwood has signed what 50 kids? How many have stayed 4 years? Zero? How many have stayed 3 years? 10%?

 

[racinghoss]

Have you heard of Rutgers?

You mean the RU team that spanked us by 9?

 

[illini80]

Down 40 on national tv. My gawd.

 

[Jimbo]

Uhm….. we’re down 40.

 

[Oracle21]

Why not put in the walk ons? You’re down 40 with 2 minutes left. Sure they’d want to play at MSG

 

[Illini4Christ]

Duke is letting the ball boy play now.

 

[TheodoreRex]

And there lies the problem with nepotism. ANY other coach that has done this AWFUL of a job would be fired for any other program. It's bush league and unacceptable.

 

[altgeld88]

5’8” Spencer Hubbard.

THIS is rock bottom if he scores.

 

[Jon]

Keaton Kutcher break out game

 

[BleedOandB]

Train wreck is Bruce Weber’s team putting the entire State Farm Center to sleep during games. Even Henson teams the last couple of years were brutal to watch. This is a solid basketball team getting beat by an excellent Duke team.

This is certainly a take. How many Weber teams lost by 40? Groce’s? Lou’s?

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

The walk-ons are increasing the lead against our starters

Doesn't have to fire Tyler. Josh just needs to bring someone in to run the offense and tell Brad to reassign Tyler as an assistant to that guy.

 

[nyc_illini]

Minnesota? UCLA?

No level of coaching could have corrected this horrendous shooting today

 

[NASchamp]

Can we just start now? I’d rather start switching things up and maybe win a game the rest of the season. No chance of that happening with the current situation in place.

 

[tcb13]

106 ties Duke's season high

 

[Illiniking]

Well we were in the elite 8 less than a year ago. I’d say that’s solid

 

[Illiniindian]

This is certainly a take. How many Weber teams lost by 40? Groce’s? Lou’s?

I don’t think those teams could have scored against this Duke Team.

 

[New Creation]

Now their scout team is kicking our a$$$$$

 

[PepeSilvia]

Is KJ’s stock going down? Certainly not playing like a top 5 pick.

Mock drafts tend to take a while to catch up but it feels more like a top 15 pick at this point.

 

[TampaToo]

Brad is the CEO! He created this mess.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Doesn't have to fire Tyler. Josh just needs to bring someone in to run the offense and tell Brad to reassign Tyler as an assistant to that guy.

Our problems run way deeper than this.
