Got a little lax on defense near the end of the half, but a really promising half of basketball otherwise.

Who is this Malcolm Hill guy with 15 minutes and 0 points? Another one of Groce's walk-ons that he likes too much? Put in Clayton Jones!

I'm pretty sure we have at least 1 poster on the board who went to the same highschool as Gerling, Mater Dei Highschool in Breese. It's not far from me
You found me, I came to see what people were saying about him lol.

Granted it's McKendree, but what a luxury that we can have a half where MH doesn't score at all, but we still have 55 points put up.

I love the 2 pg system that's being ran by Groce so far this season. Last year he didn't really have a point guard and I think with Frazier and Lucas it will be a lot of fun. Frazier only scored 43 tonight.

TA gets two fouls in the first five minutes. JCL has three fouls at the half. Thorne continues to play off the rust and misses a barrel full of bunnies. Malcolm has zero points.

I guess what I am trying to say is this: I don't care how weak the opposition may be; this Illinois team has a lot of weapons. Black comes back next week, Kipper finally arrives in just over a month, and you've gotta think Thorne will get his legs under him eventually. Tonight, at least, I feel real good about Illinois basketball.

Wait, what?

McKendree is our in-state rival? When did that happen?

Looks like all of the reports that Tracy became a better shooter during his 2 years off are true. He is lights out to start the year.

wow, TA's jumper looks much better now than I remember a couple of years ago. I mean they always look good when going in, but his jumper just looks really good right now.

I was hoping for 100 tonight. At the current rate, we could be there by the 8:00 timeout!
