Also wonder if staying in the B1G and alienating the state of Wisconsin didn't also weigh into the decision. Can't imagine he could come to Illinois & not hurt his relationship to Illinois.

I’ve been busy this week so have not been keeping up.

AI to the rescue (?)

How that AI missed cottage cheese as a main topic, I'll never know.
Instead probably shunted it off into the "off-topic noise" category, which is of course foolish. ;)

As usual, ai captures the words but not the tone. Present this at a meeting and this board comes across as a group of intellectual scholars.

I agree that we're quite likely to get a Misko-special, but I wholly disagree that he's going to be a leftover
I believe our insider(s) stated the main rotation is done and the summer addition will be an end of rotation/ non rotation guy. Sounds like a practice body. Not sure if that makes him a leftover.

There has been debate whether the Illini (as of now) have improved compared to last year.

I find "follow the money" to be an efficient way of baking everything in.

Going into the 2025/26 season the Illini were about 40:1 to win it all.

Going into the tournament this March the Illini were about 19:1

As of now on Kalshi Illini are listed at about 9% chance to win it all in 2026/27 which is about 11:1.

Seems like an upgrade to me!

Time will tell but I can't remember being so excited about the beloved!

espn releases first bracketology.


Illinois a 2 seed???? BOOO!!!!
I personally like Iowa going from Elite 8 to the last team in the field in this projection. However, I will be happy if the end result is Iowa being the first team out.

Otherwise, a bracketology update now is just plain pointless.
