Hey folks, Full-time Baylor fan, part-time IllinoisLoyalty lurker. You may remember I posted back in November when Dain Dainja committed and I poured a little cold water on the party that was in full swing. I will do no such thing this time. Matt Mayer is awesome. Great player who got better...

Hey guys, as the interloping Baylor fan around these parts, figured I'd give you some insight on your newest commit (writing this while sitting on the tarmac at SPI). First off, congrats on nabbing Dain. The thread from Baylor's board linked earlier in this thread is a pretty accurate...

Hey guys, sorry to see the game end with the result it did today. I was looking forward to playing you again in the Final 4 (I'm a Baylor fan, for those who understandably don't remember me from back in December). Just wanted to hop on and congratulate you on a really outstanding season. Even...

Hey guys. Thanks for being such gracious hosts this week. I've really enjoyed posting here and interacting with your great (and extremely knowledgeable) fanbase. Don't be too hard on your guys. You have a young team, and they played their butts off. I haven't seen Baylor look as out of sync as...

For those looking for how Baylor sites are talking about the game, the Baylor SB nation site, OurDailyBears, posted this last night: Baylor-Illinois Preview. The author, Kendall Kaut, is one of the better Baylor hoops writers.

Ok, here goes nothin'. Admittedly, I haven't watched a ton of Illini/B1G ball in the past 12 months, so I hope I can do your squad justice. The little I do know is that Kofi Cockburn is a beast, and that your guards can fill it up in a hurry, especially Ayo Dosunmu. Baylor Strengths: Defense...

Wow. As much as I'd like to blame it on quarantine, today was one of the rare days I woke up knowing what day of the week it was. Thanks for the correction!

Hi all, Baylor fan here. Really looking forward to tomorrow's game. I have a significant amount of family in Central Illinois (in and around Decatur), many of whom are alums of UI, so the Illini have always been a tertiary rooting interest of mine. I wanted to clear up a misconception that I...
