Beautiful, your skills are much better than mine haha

Him doing that dance in Maui is still one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

I was thinking in terms of a court it would be cool to have the script font as the center court logo (similar to OSU's new alternate court) with a Flying Illini block font on the baselines. That way it incorporates both the script and Flying Illini into the court, which I'm hoping will be our...

I know someone asked for a navy blue script mock-up, this is the best I could get ChatGPT to generate.

I liked them as a High Schooler, also I know this is a heinous crime on this forum but I actually loved the zig zag uniforms when they came out. Again, I was a high schooler who thought anything new was cool. I don't necessarily hate them now as an adult, but looking back they were definitely a...

I have that same Dick Butkus bobblehead, well had until one of my students stole it haha.

See you there!

Haha I would agree, I have a Mi Casa gift card from one of my players burning a hole in my pocket. Might use it for lunch tomorrow. Also, Ike's has great bar food.

That is a fair point, it's pretty difficult to recruit here in Charleston. I teach and Coach HS girls basketball here and it's a tough place to bring in recruits, let alone have any resemblance of basketball success. That's why we don't fire coaches at EIU, there's really not a lot of people...

As an EIU alum, I think Eastern would be a great fit for Tyler depending on what happens with Marty Simmons. While it's far from It's close to UIUC, the expections are low which gives him time to improve and learn how to be a HC, and it's honestly one of the safest jobs in the country. If he has...

I agree, I think Nike is by far the most likely bet and I'm totally fine with that. I think it would keep the fans happy and it fits our branding pretty well. I would hate to switch to Under Armour, and while I don't hate Adidas as much as other people I don't see us being an Adidas school.

Really hoping we make the change to Jordan brand, I think with the looks that the football and basketball teams have going on right now that it'd fit perfectly with what Jordan brand does with their college teams.

While I don't think we'll see them this year, I'm confident that next year we will get all three colors in the script and/or the Flying Illini sets. A lot of Nike schools are going to their throwbacks full time, such as MIZNOZ, Syracuse, and a couple other schools I can't remember. Seems to be...

I've really been pleasantly surprised by how comfortable he looks out there every night. For him to only have two high major offers (other being Minnesota) is really surprising. You'd think an under the radar guy like him would take time to get acclimated to playing at this level, however he's...

Definitely more consistent than Kasparas, at least in the scoring category.
