    +1. Iā€™m a staunch believer that athletes should be paid what theyā€™re worth and Iā€™m happy that the new system allows a wealthy program like ours to have year-in-year-out success. I can also admit that I donā€™t have the same sentimental feeling towards our 1-2 year transfers that I did towards the...

    Illini Basketball

    Shoutout to ESPN a couple weeks back for listing our tournament CEILING as a sweet sixteen appearance. We all must have imagined getting to the Elite Eight because clearly it wasnā€™t possible according to the experts.

    Yupā€¦I donā€™t understand going to another board and arguing silly stuff like this thatā€™s not even relevant to the game. You know youā€™re in enemy territory so be respectful or itā€™s gonna turn into a s***show. And that goes both ways - I wouldnā€™t advocate for any of us to go the ISU board and start...

    The Selection Show

    Guys - BYU is the 42nd best team on Torvik in the last ~1/3rd of the season. From stats alone, the route to the Sweet Sixteen is as easy as it could get. From there, itā€™s gonna be tough regardless of draw

    Bracketology

    Alright hereā€™s my bracket-obsessive take - we need to root for Tennessee to win and North Carolina to lose in their respective conference tourneys. Right now, bracketologists are split between Tennessee and North Carolina are the last 1 seed. Iā€™d argue that that weā€™d much rather play either of...
