Give me back my Afta, heh heh
For the 26th year in a row. But, hey, we will have 10 teams in the dance. Whoopeeee!!!!
Please find a 3rd guard.

Meh, Big Ten road win when our best player was sidelined. The 2005 team had multiple road wins where we let absolutely terrible teams hang around like Purdue and Michigan, but we never broke and got the W. That’s what we did today.
I do see a lot of regression in his game compared to last year.
It's okay. You can say his name. It's Mike DeCourcy.
Change: I’m willing to bet Keaton will play more than 20 most night — changes the equation quite a bit.
Played poorly and got out with a W on the road. That’s not going to happen very often in this league.
A forgettable game, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

I actually think it is of value to see the offense sans Ice Wagler.
A good time for coaches and players to get a dose of that.
Early season.

RabidDawgClassic marked himself SAFE from the game thread. 
This isn’t just calling you out … It’s calling out this whole attitude in general …
These dudes are making 7 figures plus … These aren’t kids … These are professionals who are paid to do a job …
And it’s not just an organization paying these guys … It’s your friend, your neighbor, your co worker … People who work hard and decide to take that hard earned money and give it to the program to field a better team …
If the guys receiving that money aren’t playing to the standard … Deserves to be called out …
And I don’t understand why everyone is so against people doing it … Back when it was the back door payments, sure we can play pretend that these guys aren’t getting anything and are still kids … Not the case anymore …
That effort gets us beat at northwestern, killed at Iowa. Horrible.
I get that Wagler is really good, but he shouldn’t be the only guy who knows how to get his guys settled and moderate tempo according to game situation. That’s the most disappointing thing for me. Just don’t see anything beyond 13-7 in the league with this group.
The Illini have greater positional size than every one of their opponents, yet continue to take close to half their shots from behind the arc. And they are mediocre shooters. Head scratcher.

Really have no idea what else staff needs to see to start Z over Tomi.
CLEARLY been the reliable option. I continue to be impressed.
6PTS, 5BLK, 10REB.

Absolutely that will change … I was commenting on the coaches looking at film and deciding to change something …
I don’t expect anything to change schematically…
