    Tough game today which I honestly expected might happen. It does not dampen my excitement level for this team. Come out, finish strong and enjoy this season. 10-2 would be fabulous.

    Game Thread: Illinois vs Purdue

    These refs are absolute garbage. Purdue db's could be flagged on each pass play. And the non call for targeting couldn't have been actually reviewed. Call was made too quickly. And the pass interference on 2 point conversion? After what Purdue has gotten away with?

    Lovie the coach was a huge disappointment. Lovie the recruiter brought some great talent. I prefer to remember that part.

    This × 1,000. Score before halftime and it's a different game. This team can absolutely win out.

    Meyer is an idiot. His success in college football is clouded by rampant cheating. His nfl tenure was an embarrassment.

    This team should get to 7 wins. But I'll dream of 8 or 9.

    2021-22 College Hoops Coaching Carousel

    While being a good coach, izzo is very irritating. He is a constant look at me guy. At the same time I do believe his comments concerning Weber's firing here was just an example of standing up for a friend.

    Yeah, the COY really has a good handle on his staff & players. Fraud selection.

    Bruce Weber resigns as Kansas State coach

    Was anyone even listening to that? Good grief, it's enough to put you to sleep. And it's plagiarized from an old Coach K pregame talk.

    Indiana 65, Illinois 63 Postgame

    Don't get me wrong, winning is always preferred. But I don't see today's loss as a bad thing. Coach Underwood accomplished things he felt were important. 1. Freshmen received tournament minutes. Invaluable experience for guys taking a big step next season. 2. Good performances by...

    Ohio State 86, Illinois 83 Postgame

    It's unreal how much abuse he takes every game with so few calls. Maybe he needs to commit one hard offensive foul early in a game to send a message. Maybe guys would back off if they knew he wasn't going to take it anymore.
