    Mark Smith transferring from Illinois

    I've got ZERO problem with that display. You need intensity to play at this level and our players don't always show that. You know who does? Michigan State, Purdue, Ohio State and Michigan. They're still playing, we're not.

    Pregame: Illinois at UNLV, Saturday, December 9th, 11:00pm CT, ESPN2

    I'm admittedly an old fart. Who in the hell on Illinois' side of things agreed to this start time?? Sounds like a Mike Thomas or JFG move.

    Pregame: Illinois vs Tennessee-Martin, Sunday, November 12th, 5:00pm CT, ESPNU

    Looks like Tenn-Martin went to overtime tonight against Marshall in a losing effort after having a pretty decent lead at half. With the short rest, will be interesting to see what they have in the proverbial tank, mentally and physically.

    EIU 80, Illinois 67 (Exhibition) POSTGAME

    I'm normally one of the more pessimistic of fans but I actually don't mind this loss. First, it will get the attention of the players in practice and ratchet up the urgency to get their heads out of their !!! and start listening to the staff.

    So does Ayo have a decision date set up or could we hear something today? If so, what time do rumors start trickling out?

    Anyone know if Ayo has a hometown girlfriend that he would not want to move away from?

    Illinois Football Uniforms

    I'm not a big fan of having the I on our helmets be white in color. Would much prefer a stripe down the center of the helmet and a blue or orange I depending on the overall color of the helmet (i.e. orange I with blue helmets, blue I with orange helmets)

    Illini Coaching Staff

    But there is a photo of Pastrana on Myspace at a drinking party. Will this be a problem?

    Brad Underwood Named Illini Basketball Coach

    I think he looks like a cross between Patrick Swayze and Chris Farley.

    Hearing 2 names over and over today and getting conflicting stories on each. Brad Underwood (Okla. St.) and Archie Miller (Dayton). #dechr From Tupper

    The Illinois Coaching Search

    I think from a purely basketball point of view an Underwood hire is solid. It's probably not a flashy hire that will fire up the fan base and inspire recruits.
