    Mark Smith transferring to Missouri

    If there wasn’t some loose ties to Liddell I wonder if Gonzo takes a hard pass? But....MS just got a nibble of what it takes and now has 18 months to get there. If he gets there OR Gonzo gets Liddell....it was a good play. I like the kid but we are better now... :chief:

    I don’t care what happens - this is a moral victory and shows these guys they can play with top level talent when they buy in. Another year and some bigs and we win games like this.

    MSU incredibly handsy on D tonight. Gonna be tough with LB foul trouble and TF out of sorts. Just cover the spread boys and we call it good.

    Illinois 72, Nebraska 66 POSTGAME

    I saw that too and it immediately left an opening across the lane and we got lucky (I loved what he did though). The thing I IMMEDIATELY noticed was that he knew he left his spot, looked at the bench and said “my bad”. NO NO NO - your good! He stopped a wide open dunk - if they make a great...
