Game Thread: Illinois at Rutgers

[ILLFAN67]

Coleman needs to shoot more in balance not these runners

 

[1Illinifan]

Kofi gets called for a foul when he was shoved into a Rutgers player... makes sense.

 

[JSpence]

One team is shooting 30%, the other is shooting 60%. Time for some regression. Please.

 

[FloridaMan]

Guys not taking open shots. Not a great sign. We seem to be a team of bad half/good half so hopefully we have a good one in us tonight.

 

[azillini1]

Need offense too... other than Kofi we are 2 of 12. Maybe RJ?

 

[Bigtex]

Williams needs to sit.

 

[InDaAZ]

Yikes

 

[DICKnaggie]

DMW not having a great game.

 

[Manual3for4peat]

Damonte is getting torched on d. His effort the last two games hasn’t been elite.

 

[HailtotheChief]

I hope Belo plays 30 minutes a game going forward . Fir us to be as good as we can he needs to play. Hawk needs to see a ball go in or sit.

 

[bjp84]

How many GOOD looks have we had?

Lousy play so far. Heads not in the game and sorry for Hawkins fans, not impressed with him at all. For a 6'10" sophomore doesn't bring much to the table.

 

[GallopingGhost]

This is BAAAAD

 

[ILLFAN67]

We can’t hit crap and they bank one in

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Nothing says it ain’t your night like a banked in three during a bad run

 

[1Illinifan]

Dude, imagine bragging about "selling out" an 8,000 person capacity stadium. Like, thats nearly half the capacity of State Farm Center. Congrats, I guess?!?!?!

 

[sacraig]

We are missing an awful lot of open looks and they're making some real circus shots. Ugh.

 

[JSpence]

Look... we don't match up well enough to come back from this deficit without a lot of help from Rutgers.

Strap in or look away, folks. Go Illini.

 

[Rocky]

Go to the F'ing hoop and guard and switch well on MulCahey, and we'll be fine

 

[FloridaMan]

Plummer has to hit that.

 

[Ramrod2010]

Sorry, just like being a little pessimistic. Also, our shooting sucks right now.

 

[LeinieGuy]

I actually thought Hawkins was a good player. He looks like an awkward deer who can never decide what he wants to do at any given moment.

 

[dbeverly26]

brb gonna go re-enact the opening scene to this week's Righteous Gemstones

 

[BlueLeader]

DWill you don't go to Jersey to see the sights. Gotta wake up and at least play defense.
