Lewis had no reason to put that on the ground. Go up and get fouled.

This game is exactly what I expected from Rutgers and the Illini. :(

Smartest timeout by Groce all year. Now we just need a well designed play to take a 3 or 4 point lead. In a way Groces career relies on this timeout. We score and we might win and if we don't score it's likely we lose and a loss to Rutgers seal up his fate at Illinois in my opinion.

Thankfully, your opinion doesn't count

Why take a TO if that is the play you draw up

Going back to my earlier post. If we don't win this game, that time out gets Groce fired because of his inability to draw up a play and win a game.

Great insight! Too late to interview this guy for AD?!?!?

At what point is it the play and what point is it the players?

Too many people are okay with losIng to Rutgers and that is what's wrong with Illini basketball.

I'm just saying, it is kind of true. If we can't beat Rutgers, how can we keep Groce? And the win or loss isn't decided on one play but we had a chance to wrap this game up. And now we have another one so we've been gifted with another chance.

I don't think anyone is OK with it. Fans, coaches, players, administrators. Shoot, even my dog is upset right now.

I just don't understand what Groce said in the timeout. Give the ball to Malcolm and let him do his thing. I could tell the players that.
