Are the baskets shorter in the Balkans? Mirk dunked.
Ok but if we're basing it off of this highlight tape, do we want our best player's go to move to be a fadeaway contested 2?
The 04-05 team didn’t have much depth. Only Rich and Jack…that worked out pretty well.
We already have more depth this upcoming season.

Great looking prospect. Beautiful looking shot. Nice looking passes in that highlight real. One concern: on every one of the drives in that highlight he is heavily favoring his right handed dribble drive and the right handed finish. At the next level, teams will have scouted this, and will undoubtedly be overplaying that side. He's going to need to prove that he can finish and drive strong to the left, which probably means he's going to have to work some more on his left handed dribble drive and finish.

"I can't tell you. Secret."
I mean, MLT was borderline basketball rage over the "who is Illinois' PG???" on the podcast.
Everyone who has commented on "OMG THERE'S NO PG!!!" needs to watch that entire interview.
More MLT please.
Ok, so I'm not crazy in saying this place has gotten significantly crazier this off-season?
Every offseason is crazy, but this one has seemed like the majority has forgot about the Groce/Weber dark years and thinks guys will come for the privilege to sit on our bench.
His upper body and explosiveness has to(and will) take him to the next level. He'll be able to play of the perimeter offensively. He can do that tomorrow. Finishing at the rim and using a bigger body to stay in front of opposing guards will be the initial hurdle. Hopefully, he'll be there over there summer?
With that shooting stroke and scorers mentality, he can and probably will be special.
5.3 minutes per game times 5 games= 48 minutes?
First I learn that drug prices are down 600%, then I learn that 100% of $100 per barrel is more than 80% of $150 per barrel, now this.
This new math hurts my brain.
This is Chainsaw erasure and I won't stand for it.
I could of sworn it was the name of a movie I saw recently but when I looked at it, it wasn't there
from my understanding, Illinois is still in behind the half court line and there is no plan to get across half court.I mean, MLT was borderline basketball rage over the "who is Illinois' PG???" on the podcast.

Especially since we don't have any BLOBs
Thought the same. Hopefully everyone stays relatively healthy and we don't need just spot minutes from him.
Yeah, all five starters played a lot - they were all in fantastic shape and were healthy all season. Rich and Jack were the main reverses in a 7-man rotation. Chainsaw and Carter also got minutes.
FWIW most coaches prefer a tight rotation if stamina, health, and fouls permit. But those three things are far from a given.
Yeah, that tells the story
Username checks out.
That's your master evaluation off of a 3 minute clip? Just since none of the clips show it, doesn't mean he doesn't have a left hand.
that actually has been such a refreshing change. keeping it simple is never a bad strategy. outside of a few minutes if the Houston game, we have gotten the ball in easily. thanks mirk. then just hunt matchups
At this point we keep thinking the next milestone will cure it, but it just makes it worse. Success exacerbates the condition. Disappointment drives us into a tailspin. Just nothing happening has us pulling our hair out. Is it possible we're all just a group of psych patients yelling at each other and sharing a joint psychosis that we're on a sports message board?
DGL shot 42% from 3 this year… up from 25% in 2025 with Illinois.
