    Jaylon Tate's case dismissed

    I thought it said that they couldn't conclude from the video if she was injured or not.

    Did I see him give a Cena "you can't see me" hand wave in that video? Sign that kid up ASAP!

    And he wanted an offer from us. It never came.

    Daniel Bryan Retiring

    Was it.....a hand? I vaguely remember it. I have to agree with others who say the product has gone downhill. They can't find a main eventer worth a darn anymore. Somebody who has the look, the ring skills, and can kill it on the mic. They get a lot of guys who have one or maybe two things...

    Sadly, I thought the same thing. Been a loooong season. ;)

    Iowa 77, Illinois 65 POSTGAME

    I think having some McDAA's lined up also contributed to the sense of optimism.

    The Illinois AD Search

    I think your gut is probably accurate. I check forums periodically, and I'm just waiting for the Tom Michael announcement. At which time, the last small shred of hope I'm holding out for IL athletics will blow away like a dandelion seed in the wind. *sigh* :tsk::(

    The Illinois AD Search

    My .02. Hiring Tiley or George shows that IL wants to get serious about athletics. Whether they succeed or not, we swung for the fences and went all out. I think that is something the fan base needs to see and something we would appreciate. On the flip side, hiring Tom Michael (who is a nice...

    I didn't realize Pastner was on such a hot seat. Interesting.

    Pregame: Illinois at Rutgers, Wednesday, February 3rd, 5:30pm CT, BTN

    Groce said tonight on his radio show that Nunn and Finke were unable to workout/practice today and that they are both questionable for Wednesday night.

    Wisconsin 63, Illinois 55 POSTGAME

    That gives me pause because the 2017 class is so important. I'm not sure that he can pull in a good class the way it is, and then if he under-achieves again next year....what do you do? Pull the plug then and the roster will be really depleted. Makes the coaching job a tougher sell. I think...

    Have a feeling we are going to give Rutgers their first conference win. Sure hope I'm wrong.

    Ohio State 68, Illinois 63 (OT) POSTGAME

    In fairness, Hill flopped a few times and complained about calls all night. Probably a big reason he didn't get the call there.

    Illinois 76, Minnesota 71 (OT) POSTGAME

    Too many holes in that zone. A decent team will roast it. Nice to get a win, but that is a really bad Minny team. We have a lot more talent than they do.

    Indiana 103, Illinois 69 POSTGAME

    Watching this game, I noticed that IU rarely switched on defense, guys guarded straight up and fought through screens. Granted our poor offense probably helped, but IU isn't the first team I've watched to employ this simple, straight-forward strategy. On the other end of the spectrum is our...
