    Coaching Carousel (Basketball)

    Can we at least get some inbound plays? I am looking for something that gives us a chance to score on a designed play with a different look/ Quick Hitter mindset!!

    Pregame: Illinois at Rutgers, Wednesday, February 5th, 7:30pm CT, BTN

    Switch to Tomi playing the 4 so he can slip ball screens You need one less shooter in the corner adn this opens up the elbow penetration. If they go drop coverage defender on corner shooter will have to decide to when to help. Look at what happened when Riley was able to get downhill. MJ...

    Zero Assists in the first half should tell us how much movement we had on the offensive end.

    USC 82, Illinois 72 Postgame

    I had a high school coach once ask at halftime for all of us to go get our wallets. Once he had us all sitting in a group he then asked us all to contribute to a fund to refund the fans as he said ' the fans paid to get in and deserve more out of us'. Actually had to contribute at half time...

    Tennessee 66, Illinois 64 Postgame

    I am thinking there may be some oxygen deprivation techniques applied this week in practice to sharpen the mind and increase focus. We need some 'GRIT'

    Northwestern 70, Illinois 66 OT Postgame

    A must when you shoot the number of 3s we do is offensive rebounding. Brad eluded to this in his postgame. When 3s go in you do not have to do much but ... you have to go hard to the boards when they are not falling. We lacked some grit tonight. Ben's legs may have been dead playing that...

    Ole Miss 91, Illinois 74 (Exhibition) Postgame

    Just thinking a little early to start bashing This team has a lot of talent and young (minutes wise). This team will be entirely different in Jan than Dec 1. I have faith in the development and growth. I predict a tremendous lift in defense and offense from the beating in an Exhibition game.
