Tomi walking without crutches.
I heard they are trying to get all the injuries and illnesses out of the way early in the season this year. All part of the plan.
Hopefully precautionary
It's so bad they've even given up treating him.
You can tell there was a little hitch in Tomi giddyup. As for this game I really think a lot of folks on this board are underestimating FGCU. Illinois wins but much closer than the experts think. Illinois 87 FGCU 75.
Side note.....Purdue upset alrert.

Theory: Got benched for not rebounding last game. Using the knee story to let him save face publicly... we can only hope right?

Andrej going through warmups and Big Z rocking a headband… lets go!
This freakin' Purdue game may not be over until 8 pm. ESPN seems to start on time when doing sequential games....why does Peacock ALWAYS run late? Guess their play by play and color guys have a mandatory 10 minutes of face time before the game in their contracts.

It’s on another channel on Peacock. That’s the beauty of it!
So the same Oakland that got blitzed by Michigan for 121 is challenging the number one team in the country on their home court?
By the way, having to watch Purdue struggle at home with a 5 pt. lead with 9 min. to play, I would like to give a tip of the hat to Oakland as they know how to play. They always seem to be one of the really good mid-majors. Purdue at #1 would appear to be smoke and mirrors....and they really struggle without K-R.
Thanks big time.
We can only hope...
Take out Davis and bring in Stoj.
Jake D looks so much more comfortable this year. We need that!
