[QUOTE="hoopsfan47, post: 1557329, member: 4716"] Watching Gonzaga the later today, there is a distinctive difference. Zags have skills and size and do not make many mistakes while burying shot after shot against quality defenders in Kansas. Our guys will depend on a lot of new guys and three sophs but have a decided speed advantage against almost anyone. At the pace the Illini play, they will turn the ball over, but the better they get at eliminating those and making shots at a quick pace, the more explosive and confident they will become. This team can play with anyone, but it would be a tough task to take the Zags for about a month. Good competition coming along with maybe a handful of losses but no blowouts loom. A championship season is a long process to be endured and embraced. This will be one of them and a team to be remembered in the ilk of Illini greats.....but they need a nickname to go with the Whiz Kids and the Flyin' Illini,,,,how about Covid Warriors or Corona Kids?
