Game Thread: Illinois vs Maryland

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Take Morez out... the guy's straining his broken hand to absolutely zero avail in a 40 point game. If you were gonna play him, should've been yesterday.

Odds of Tomi fouling out?

 

[SeattleSlim]

It’ll be interesting to see how the multiple embarrassments this year influence Underwood’s team assembly next year. Can’t just blame this on freshmen, … Queen’s a freshman, too.

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

On pace to give up 111...

I can’t recall three games in 12 months as an Illini fan since 1983 that were as bad as UConn Duke and this. WTH??

Ladies and Gents
DGL has checked out of the illininois program

You sitting on the bench and it's pretty much done after arguing with Underwood

 

[DeeIL89]

A utter garbage misfired on finding players that can "shoot" the three.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

I'm sorry, but not one of these guys is playing for the name on the front of the jersey. Not one.

 

[Illini From Michigan]

Let’s get it to under 30 by the 5 minute marker. Then we can possibly lose by only 35.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

to be fair, the last one wasn't KJ's fault

It actually might have partially been if it was his job to communicate the double. It seemed like his call to make based on position

 

[steveinspringfield]

I think you meant "a BAD high school team." A good high school team would beat us tonight.

 

[Ryllini]

Is the Hamer experiment over now? That could be the best possible outcome from this meltdown.

Sure Hamer needs to go, but if you don't think Brad has intimate knowledge of the defensive game plan, I have a bridge to sell you.

 

[bleedorange and blue]

No we are who they play when they need a win

 

[Oracle21]

Maryland should probably rest their guys. They have a good chance to get to Sunday

 

[Scoregasm]

We look like Chicago State.

 

[jumpingjack]

This is utter shite.

 

[New Creation]

Maryland shrinks to a zone as the ball gets closer to the rim. It needs to be kicked out not dumped down. Can Tyler not see this ?

 

[PepeSilvia]

Rest up for the tourney now. Let’s not forget we beat 2 top 5 seeds back to back a week ago.

Wer probably a 6 so let’s beat the 11 and leave it on the floor against whoever that 3 is

Michigan and Purdue both suck and will be bounced early though.

Also this game likely bounces Illinois to at least a 7.

 

[Wazababybrucedouglaskid]

We are who we are. Hopefully there is no way we fall to an 8!

 

[grantlab]

Largest loss in program history is once again in play…

 

[Warren Carter Fanclub]

Gamecast has Maryland with a 99.9% probability to win.

 

[RDS]

Even down stooopid big we get out-hustled and worked. There is NO amount of embarrassment or humiliation this team won’t accept with a smile and a courtesy.

 

[fatboyslim]

UConn game wasn't nearly as bad as the other two. We were at least in the game for a half and it never got over 30 points.

 

[IllinistrandedinHouston]

I thought this was the team Brad needed to compete with UCONN?

 

[DeeIL89]

Got to go out and find players with the Trent/Da'monte mindset. Go get dawgs with toughness that will fight!
