    UConn 74, Illinois 61 Postgame

    Offense comes and goes, defense travels. The defense will improve at the margins, but the lack of athleticism and abysmal lateral quickness was a roster choice that is not correctable.

    Duke 110, Illinois 67 Postgame

    This is merely the culmination of excessive hubris from the leader of a program that has become far too comfortable. This touches every aspect of the program. Coaching hires, recruiting, roster construction, lineup decisions, press conferences, etc. Not uncommon for the coaching greats in...

    Game Thread: Illinois at Tennessee

    2x NC HC Jay Wright is spelling it out. Old hickory made an offensive adjustment. Can Underwood respond with an adjustment of his own?

    Game Thread: Illinois at Tennessee

    Old Hickory thought that stopping Shannon & Domask and forcing Quincy & Hawkins to beat them was a winning strategy. So far old hickory is wrong. See you in Glendale.

    Game Thread: Illinois vs Florida Atlantic

    IMO, the Illini win by double digits. Terrence Shannon Jr. is going to live at the line and may drop 30+.

    “He’s really good. Jayden’s a rockstar. He carried us in spots in the second half. I’d be hard-pressed to find a better freshman guard, not just in this league but IN THE COUNTRY. No turnovers. I think you look at his turnovers in the last six or seven games, they’re almost nil. Very, very few...
