    Game Thread: Illinois at Indiana

    Just who exactly is coaching the Illini kicking team? A great way to lose the game.

    Game Thread: Illinois at Indiana

    I'm so sick and tired of announcers mispronouncing Ilinois and Illini.

    Is it only me, but does tv coverage so far sound pro-Indiana?

    Pregame: Illinois at Indiana, Friday, September 2nd, 7:00pm CT, FS1

    I love the way Illini coaches think and what they say. Beat Indinia! Just wondering: say a game today nearby at Indiana, do Illini arrive yesterday, stay in hotel, have meetings, practice? Or do they stay in Champaign today and travel later? Neither here nor there, who cares?, but thanks anyway.

    USC, UCLA to join the Big Ten in 2024

    Things are moving way too fast for me. I understand that the University of Chicago Maroons left the Big 10 way back and Michigan State became a member in 1950. Correct?

    Cubs 2022 Season

    Top of the 10th. Çubs up 6-5, two men on. Cards intentionally walk to load the bases hoping for double play to end the threat. Yep. Bring in a reliever to Induce a ground ball. It worked. But then Çub reliever fastball high to end gàme. Bàseball is beautiful.

    Just wondering. Terry Gannon, my favorite announcer, played basketball at Joliet Catholic, I think; then played on '83 NC State championship team under Coach Valvano. How did Illinois miss him? One that got away. You can't win them all, I guess.

    Illini Basketball 2022-2023

    I was there. Everything chiefini says is true and right on. I only add that someone, probably Deon, alluded to Chester's little encounter with Eric Gordon in 2008? Got a rise from the audience. Great event, great free food! I came for the food, but was more than happy to digest the remainder...

    Illini Golfers in the Pros

    Good to read Illini are playing well and Nick and Dylan are healthy. Golf Channel used to televise Korn Ferry events. No more, I guess. Too bad.
