I agree. It's becoming obvious. And, please God, don't let anyone else say "you don't want to play that team in the tournament".

Getting spanked by a team that is lower in the Big Ten standings than us, on senior night, is just inexcusable. It shows how far we have to go as a team.

Color commentary almost has to focus more on the team leading by wide margin. I think Bardo is fine
IU is healthy and firing on all cylinders tonight, which makes them really tough to beat. But our apathy on defense has given them a TON of layups. Throw in some missed free throws and here we are.
But I don’t see it meaning anything as it relates to momentum for next year.

That's completely accurate.
Are we playing in Bloomington? They are getting homer calls like they’re in the other AH!
Agreed. But my comment isn't based on only this game. It's a pattern, but I wasn't frustrated enough to bring it up during other games haha

Totally agree. This team shows promise. Especially with more size coming and 0 and 5 with a year in the system. It’s a tough league. Sometimes you get your !!! kicked.

Illini thought the Hoosier would show up dead. We had 0 defensive intensity tonight. We deserve to get blown out.
Illinois defense??
Illinois doesn’t have defense. They just try to create turnovers to mask their lack of defense.

You maybe right but in 2 years we have only seen a 5 game stretch of good winning basketball. 20 point beat down on senior night doesn't help pp jump on board. So I believe reason to raise an eyebrow.

The body language of our guys on the floor says it all. They've checked out for the night.

Just outclassed tonight by a bigger, more physical, more experienced team....that's hot. Illinois' caught them at their peak.
This is the worst defense we've played all year

That's enough of that. Take Kane out and put ADR back in .../s
I hope Trent's problem is his ankle
...he has provided very little tonight
