I have to think Whitman must be reconsidering his vote of confidence towards Bollant with Brooke and Chatrice transferring. You're talking about the Illini losing some of their best players for the second straight year under this coach and really no improvement. I know that some will say last...

Just when you thought the Rutgers vs Minnesota thriller was going to be your entertainment for the afternoon. Interested to see how this all plays out.

Minnesota announced they've suspended the three guys who missed the Illinois game for the rest of the season. Thinking the 12 seed might be better than an 11 seed game if its against Rutgers. Believe they should have their star player back by that point so overall I feel Minnesota's safer for...

They really deserve a lot of credit for being as awesome as they have been despite how rough a year its been. That support would not happen at a lot of other schools. On another note, can someone explain to me why Tate was in at the end of the game instead of Lewis? From everything I saw at the...

I still do like our chances to put up a decent record (Not necessarily 21-10, but we can dream). Little solace in that, but at this point I'm rooting for our guys to at least get out of the bottom four to avoid that first day of the B1G tourney.

I'm growing less and less optimistic as this game goes on. At least there's still plenty of time...

At the same time the DH position does give the manager a lot of options as well. It can keep a player in the lineup without having to put them out in the field every once in a while. Gets them a little more rest without having to sacrifice their bat. Not to mention it can help extend a players...

What worries me most about this game is that it is gonna set the tone for the rest of the season. If the team comes out and looks like they quit then it's not gonna be a very fun end to the season. Losing never makes anyone happy, but when the team looked competitive in their losses over the...

Defense is what worries me the most. Most of the time we were only in games this year because of them. Having Dudek and Hardee healthy will be key for the offense, but I don't know if I see enough positive changes overall for us to reach 6 wins. I can see at best 5 wins heading into our last 4...

Unfortunately I completely agree. I know that the injuries put a major wrench into our season, but if we get beaten badly like this in a few more games and can't get our players to look like they care then I don't see how you can justify keeping Groce. It was one thing when we were losing, but...

Best quote I've seen to describe the TCU/Oregon game

The only coaches the lawsuit names is Divilbiss and Bollant, but as I've heard others point out it seems highly unlikely these events could have gone on without the other coaches on staff being unaware. Anything you've heard regarding this? It just seems like a major oversight on their part...

I fully believe that when suing for 10 million dollars you could easily get people to all tell the same lie. Since you seem to know something more in the matter I'd curious to hear was there any rumblings about this kind of stuff in the program before the Cvijanovic accusations came out? I still...

I must say that it is pretty reassuring, at least from a human side of things, to see people defending Bollant against those who are saying he should be outright fired when nothing has been proven up to this point and to wait for the investigations. Not to often these days you see people...

What happens to these ladies if their allegations are proven to be made up? After all, for those that transferred I can't imagine their new schools would feel comfortable with these girls in their program knowing that they made up allegations and tried to pull a fast one like this over their old...
