thanks for the post. I didn’t comb the box scores well enough it appears. How many times did we do it before 1980 and what players did it?

We should really be a number 1 seed.

Three 20 point scorers I have combed box scores including 04-05, flying Illini, mid 80s teams, Frankie and the Peoria kids, but I cannot find another game in our entire school history that we’ve had three 20 point scorers. Can anyone help me with this? I think last night may have been the first...

I like Pagliai's in Charleston. Is SIU's similar to EIU's Pagliai's?

I live nearby and was also witness to the Poon Saloon.

Why was Epps upset. He was the one kid I really wanted back. I love a bunch of the kids but Epps was my favorite.

Why was Snacks forced out?

Best combo of coach and recruiter in Illini history. Good Xs and Os, good management of kids and role model, good handling media, good handling assistant coaches, good handling administration, good handling politics, good handling recruiting, and good teaching fundamentals. He really was...

Alan Moore my new idol!

Kruger was very adaptive too. He was an underrated coach.

If Kofi comes back, you still get Aimaq. Why? Watch Arizona..... Sometimes they play two 7 footers and 6'10" on the court at the same time. Sometimes kids are gassed and need great backups. Sometimes they get in foul trouble. You take 27 double doubles and find a way to use it.

We have some major deficiencies to overcome to win it all. We can beat anyone in the country including all 4 potential 1 seeds and we get beat by St Mary school of the blind dinks girls squad.

He'll end up being a player. Give him a little more time.

Need to win at least 2 of the next three. Three of the next three and we still have a good chance of winning the Big 10.

This sounds weird but I think our shooting went cold because Purdue shut the Curbelo Kofi pick and roll down then Curbello started dribble driving (to some level of success) and the team stood around and watched then we went cold and couldn't hit the broadside of a barn.
