I think the rumor is Emerald Coast Classic in Florida. They've also said the date for Tennessee game as December 14th in the original press release though it could always change.

The bill is kind of overrated in it's impact. They just have had way more support.

Huge difference between Illini Football and Illini Basketball. For one, being a basketball school alone is a huge advantage, there aren't that many. Allows us to throw our NIL weight around more. Football we are small potatoes sadly. Even after the 8 win season the NIL wasn't great.

Well I don't think he should but silly to not gauge his market. Plus he obviously wants to play the 4 almost exclusively. Not saying that can't happen here, but he knows what Brad wants now and I'm sure knows it may include a lot of 5 minutes. I mean we probably get a center but if he came back...

As a basketball school and as a basketball brand, we are too big to get basically stock uniforms based on our football uniforms.

Yeah no I agree and I think we get that. Just not sure what era they will use as the reference point.

Yeah I've seen these. I think we move away from the Lovie era football collar and design with the new mens bball uniforms, but something of this nature (using an old design as the main reference point) is something I expect. Our current bball uniforms came from a time when we wanted a consistent...
