Ill be in Vegas March 28- April 1, so....I'm not gonna watch them
Duke 110, Illinois 67 Postgame
- Status
Indiana doesn't count as an elite blue blood these days do they? 
You're overrating our talent. Did you see what happened to Tomi tonight? Did you watch Riley's defense? Duke has legitimate NBA talent on their roster. We have talented Freshmen that are getting bullied.

News flash - Underwood fired . . . Illinois men's basketball program cancelled . . Loyalty website renamed as www.illinoisdisloyalty.com . . .
If we had shot just 62% from 3 tonight instead of our 8% we would have scored 109 points.
Spencer Hubbard would forever be a Duke Legend as the walk on with a 3 pointer to secure the 110-109 victory.

You are correct....I went and looked at a different box score.. looks like it is 6 TOs.
Those bench points are so much more valuable than showing 4 and 5 star recruits that you won't be stuck behind recruiting mistakes like Ben.
DGL looks to have checked out in my opinion, and rightfully so. Kid has been done dirty and it's completely on Brad, but I'm sure he will tell the media how he has to play him more and they will have that conversation going into next week.

Right. Worst loss in program history? What’s the pitch now ?
Bruce Pearl is trash personified...yet #1 Auburn had no problem hiring him. So, there's that.
Do the ends justify the means? Depends on whom you ask I guess.

Just thinking out loud here:
Kansas would be the domino we don’t want falling…prolly right? Kansas is most likely to just straight-up hire a cutthroat killer and not even pretend to worry about sketchy reps/optics.
The Tarholes are too up their own butt with their hires…and it causes them to make underwhelming choices…
It’s not unlike the old head fan contingent at Bloomington…
They’d ideally like to make their hire with some sort of six degrees type connection back to Dean/Bobby if at all possible.
Not trying to be snarky here at all. How did Tyler and Hamer happen under Josh’s watch?Poverty program …
I trust Josh to fix this more than I just Brad to fix this …
That’s all I’ve got folks … Enjoy the rest of your night …

What the hell is he talking about??? We have only shot 32% or higher in 5 of our last effing 15 games!!!! We shoot 32% from 3 just about 32% of the damn time! What an asinine thing to say. He is turning into Beckman before our eyes.
No, I definitely would not be. But many others would not have a problem doing it.
I don't know that much about Beard, but you have to eliminate all other members of the human race to hire Pearl. Yet, he keeps getting jobs.

...I gave it a try. I self-reflected and really looked deep into my soul. And you are right..
I STILL want Chris Beard.

He’s not, trust me. More 3’s, more Ben coming soon!!! Oh and more heartbreak and confusion! This team is ILL
No confidence in BU. None. If we lose here on out, even if we make the NCAAT, he has to go.
TSJ and Domask got us to that Elite 8. Basically TA’s guy and a kid that BU admitted he didn’t want initially. If Michigan doesn’t think they’re Harvard, TSJ goes to UM and we likely don’t even make the Sweet 16 last year. That would’ve warmed BU’s seat right there.
It should be really hot after all the blowout loses this year and tonight’s epic sh!t show. Lot of Illini fans paid good money to go to NYC for that game and we didn’t even show up. How many you think will fork out money for that trip again (or the program) as long as BU’s at the helm?
