Jordan Brangers, high risk high reward type of guy. Has committed and de-committed/left 3 programs in last year. (TTU, WKU, CSU). He was enrolled at WKU last summer, everything was going fine a lot of people liked him because of his work ethic and attitude. Then all of a sudden one day right as...

My first Illini game since the Bruce Weber era. My first game in C-Bus since the last time we won their in 2004. Here are my 2 cents. 1. Settled too much for perimeter shots once we got up big, and they werent falling. Which leads to run-outs and easy buckets for OSU. 2. Severely undermanned...

Team didnt quit, they kept fighting. Just extremely unlucky. Kinda been our thing this season unfortunately

Or Finke will do! By the way all these fouls on threes have been weak (both ways)

Cant have Williams in the game in late game situations, cant. Way too many turnovers it crucial situations. Maybe he will hit a three again at the end...

:rock:

Congrats to Illinois. Lovie out coached Sanford from start to end. Illinois defense was super impressive, while Westerns offense was depressing. Always enjoy coming to Champaign glad I can go back to rooting for both the blue and orange and red and white.

:huh: Muh bad. Not the place for me to go through my WKU resume, thought i had read that somewhere I was wrong. You could have just said that... You maybe right on the play calling by Sanford in game one. Still I was concerned of secondary play in 2nd half against EKU. Though Illinois...

Numbers may have been inflated by late 4th qrt a bit. Westerns D was not good in the 2nd half, put little to no pressure on EKU. That should be an area of concern for Western, Western was missing two of their top RBs both of whom should be back this week. The two they had last week were more of...

I was at Westerns first game against EKU, and you were right they were less than impressive. Dont know to chalk that up to first game under new coach, saving stuff for Illinois, or if they are not as good as in years passed. They were missing two key offensive weapons that they will get back...

Yes and no. Yes it is all about the memories that your teams create (especially when they win IE 2005) but I think that a mascot/song/whatever can carry a lot of meaning to a fanbase. I remember one of the last times I saw the Cheif (2004) and its a memory I will cherish. With my dad and nearly...

v. Ball State - W v. WKU - L (sorry had too) @ South Florida - L v. Nebraska - L @ Iowa - L v. Rutgers - W @ Minnesota - L v. Wisconsin - L @ Purdue - W v. Indiana - W @ Ohio State - L v. Northwestern -L 4-8. If we are to get to the magical 6 the best chances to pick up wins would be WKU...

My hopes and dreams: 1. Gregg Marshall 2. Tony Bennett 3. Scott Drew 4. Kevin Keatts 5. Ray Harper

I grew up about 15 minutes from NKU here is what I can tell you about them... 1. There campus is called the concrete jungle because its literally all concrete and ugly 2. Its mainly a commuter school, about a 10 minute drive from Cincinnati 3. They used to be a solid D2 program, I think this is...
