Agreed, as long as we win the BTT or barely lose the title game

In my opinion I think the best indicator of tournament success should be based more on the Final Four compared to National Championships Yes of course National Championships matter more as it shows (most of the time) who the best team was. There has only been 37 programs who have won a national...

I don't think they got to 6 but Memphis fell from the top 10 in 2 weeks

Could fit an immediate need on their roster with lack of front court players Especially one who can shoot and be as versatile as Coleman I would be curious how is strength translates to the NBA and if that makes him more of a 4 or 5 on a team

A great example of your point is the Nebraska game They brought it within a single possession and then we missed on offense and they had the ability to tie it. So, if we made a bucket and made it a 2 possession game we were never in trouble? That's just not the case. That's why you play the...

This should lead to March success..... In the Nebraska game we did not play our best basketball. We found a way to win against a team who shot 100% from the line, 42.9% from 3 on 28 shots. While we shot 66.7% from the line and 26.5% from 3. Not to mention having a bench that went 0-11 from 3...

To add to your point, the only bad loss we have as a team is the Maryland loss (TSJ did not play) and every loss we have is within 10 points. You compare that to other teams in the country ranked around us have taken worse losses. You can only play who is on your schedule and if you take care...

Like many teams we play this year our lineup has a lot more size (they have a 7'0 and the next tallest starter is 6'6) Our shortest starter is 6'6! We need to outrebound them by 10-15 and we can win comfortably. This will start with Quincy and Ty The best way to manage this NW team is to keep...

I believe it might've been in the second round vs miami (could be completely wrong) They missed 1 or 2 out of bounds calls that couldn't be reviewed 2012-2013 team

2 sides to this: The real life aspect - this sucks for all parties involved, if this is true then we can only sympathize with the victim and hope they get all the help they need. If it's not true then we should do the same for TSJ as he has been a great representation of what Illini basketball...

DMW defense is so huge for our success, Lamar Stevens played 31 minutes, went 3-11 shooting (made 7-8 free throws). When we can trust a guy to lock up the opposing team's best player like that you can beat almost anyone.
