TSJ good block. Not goaltend

I'm going to guess it was CoHawks birthday yesterday.

It was last year before the psi game.

I love Coleman. Would love to know what went through his head when he volleyball spiked the ball from the free throw line to the baseline. Like how’d you think that was gonna play out? Lol

 

[FloridaMan]

I have zero confidence they get the review correct

 

[stlrunner]

Who can stop the almighty…checks notes…Nick Kern?

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

God, can we please pull away?? I can’t take another stressful finish like Maryland.

(Though I’ll take any win…)

Werner just tweeted that we're giving up 1.25 points per possession.

 

[LoveLovie]

This should be a pretty obvious call. Anything else the fix is in

 

[Mr. Roberts]

The allowed physicality of the game and the !!!! floor is really hurting us

I agree. They are not slipping - guess they adjusted from practicing on this floor.

Dinask has 6 assist isn't the problem. Our D giving up.lay ups is.

Assists aren't the only part of being a point guard.

TSJ good block. Not goaltend

Hope they call it that way

 

[WeWillWhen]

Clean block by TSJ. Clearly got it before the backboard.

 

[BBlock24]

espn app already too off TSJs bucket.

 

[thehass]

Cannot get enough stops to capitalize on said stops on the other end.

Lack of focus, consistency, and general flakiness…also our defense has more holes than Swiss cheese.

This has been a problem the last several games and could be the tournament killer for us.

Should be 77-68

 

[curtmoss]

Turnovers: 14 for IL (5 for Hawkins), 5 for PSU. Big reason for the close game. And our defense sucks.

 

[hoopsfan47]

In defense of our defense...Kern is making some pretty difficult and extremely athletic shots...at the rim...over a bigger defender. The Illini do not play pack-line defense which would be pretty effective in stopping his drives.

 

[NarrowJ]

Assists aren't the only part of being a point guard.

He also has 13 points and only 2 turnovers

try again

 

[jaked1121]

Ball was coming down on Shannon’s shot

 

[Gbop]

C’mon Illini. Don’t let these losers back in this.

 

[skyIdub]

This stupidity is 100% on these blue uniforms.

I'll die on that hill. Hopefully in a bonfire with these unis.

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

Most ridiculous review in history...must be 240Hd monitors...

 

[FreshlySqueezed]

We were 8 point favorites and we're up 7.

 

[madillini4]

Dinask has 6 assist isn't the problem. Our D giving up.lay ups is.

Our D is the problem, but it would still be nice to have a lead guard.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Wow. Not much there for 2 free throws.
