    Game Thread: Illinois vs Kentucky

    I'm tired of hearing about how this garbage is some 23 year old assistant's fault grade school girls play with more grit and effort on defense than this. Secondly when evaluating players it's easy to see this group has next to no talent when it comes to defense. We desperately need new...

    Coaching Carousel (Basketball)

    As has been said ad nauseam people want to work for our AD our school has a lot more to offer than most. Coaches want to go where they can win. Carolina will hire one coach there are plenty of others mainly if Sean Miller would come to Illinois that would be a huge next step.

If K State wants him...

    Nothings changed for all the things Brad is great at the the fact remains the x and o's, the in game adjustments, calling timeouts when necessary are mediocre at best there will 7 or 8 coaches available this off season that would strengthen the basketball program considerably. I have to think...

    Conference Realignment, Naming Rights, Financing

    You all know more about this stuff than I ever will. I just wish Big Ten schools would not schedule them in anything. If they don't want to join the conference let them play Southern Indiana and Eastern illinois a bunch of times in all these non revenue sports why help their scheduling? It...

    Thanks for your awesome post we're lucky to have people willing have a different opinion and the courage to say it even when they don't think it's popular. Aside from some insiders how do we know how good Fletch is? But what does come across on this message board is that he is an amazing team...
