Tapes don’t lie….no consistency in his game.
what else can you say. Now can the rest of the team dig in and let’s fing go!! It’s there for the taking!!
So we played no defense in first half, AndreSto being Andre, Referees being Big10 refs, and way to much man not enough Zone. Only down 4, I'll take it.
Have we ever seen a half of basketball where one player was so dominant? Been watching for 45ish years and can’t think of one.
They fought hard to get it 4 points.
You're in the game. Confidence should be high--let's keep playing like it.

Andrej just isn’t good enough for the BIG. Yes, he’s a phenomenal driver, but he’s a slow defender, subpar shooter, careless passer, and a black hole. He needs to come off the bench to find offense when everyone is missing threes, but that’s it.
Time for the Ivisic brothers to join the game.
KW is a BEAST!! The fact that we withstood that offensive onslaught and are only down 4 at halftime, with KW having 24(!!!) points in the first half gives me hope! Just make adjustments defensively and for the love of God, somebody, ANYBODY give KW help on the offensive end and we can win this. No doubt in my mind!
Pretty damn sad when the only one who shows up for is an 18 year old freshman! 24 pts in 1st half. I hope Brad kicks some !!! at half
I love Ayo, and he is a really solid NBA player. Not only is Wagler much better as a freshman, but it feels like his ceiling is also much higher.
The Brandon Paul 45 point game was pretty crazy
You guys need to wake up and support our team!!! I'm sick and tired of negativity!! Be better Illini nation, be better!!!

- Defense is not good enough to win this game. Will need a way better effort in the 2nd half.
- Wagler is...I cant even...
- Make no mistake...if we are not nuclear from 3 we are down 20.
- Stop running the offense a million miles away from the hoop. Someone, ANYone has to help Keaton out.

Painter at halftime: "We need to get fouls on Wagler to get him out of the game since we can't guard him. Flop any time he's guarding you, I'll yell for the fouls."
Yes, they are, but defense is not so good today.
Glad to see them in it.
Wish they'd stay in it. They're gonna get cooked all game with those Smith screens up top all game.

For the rest of the year.
Keaton Wagler having a Frankie Williams half. Hope he doesn't go away like Frankie often did after a start like that.
