If true, absolutely pathetic from the "leaders" of this team

 

[Illiniam1984]

The portal era is going to make it difficult for him to build a roster of his type of guys. He will need to adapt his coaching style or evolve into a more technical X and O guy (the latter I don’t really see in the cards).

Yeah I agree. BB is the complete opposite. He can coach up the guys he gets. They don’t have to be 4 or 5 stars.

Maybe Piper was correct in his read on internal issues? How else can you explain what we've seen the last 5 halves of basketball?

Get Clark outta the game

 

[IlliniBrickhaus]

Feels like Bruce Weber 2012.

Was getting some John Groce 16-17 vibes with all these head cases in the locker room

Brad just doesn’t care anymore. Did you see his reaction to that flagrant foul call?

they went to the monitor .. got to pick your spots when you want to fight the call.

I didn’t feel anything the penn state game, I’m personally embarrassed now. The look on RJ face on the closeup solidified it

Where is Harris

 

[FortWayneFan]

I’m sorry. I should have never downloaded the free YouTube tv trial. My bad tonight. I’m canceling.

@Dan, suggest you do away with game threads next year (or even this year). Ample evidence that intelligent life does not exist here on Loyalty . . . . just sayin' . . .

Wat

 

[Voice of Reason]

There's no offensive execution and nobody is playing defense. Underwood needs to pull the starters for the rest of the game. Be a coach.

 

[skyIdub]

Both Mayer and TSJ jogging back on defense. They have tuned out.

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Shannon and Hawkins 4-4 on 2-point FG. 0-9 from three. Keep chucking

 

[Illini8420]

I’m sorry but Skyy is a defensive liability out there

 

[sacraig]

I think I'm going to quit watching this and go read that $1.7T omnibus bill and see what I'm buying Uncle Sam.

“A team that likes each other, shares the basketball”

Illinois has 3 assists

 

[PNWIllini]

I expect that ILL will make at least one run.

Too much talent to not at least do that.

One would think

 

[grantlab]

Brad’s lost this team.

 

[RDS]

If you’re BU it’s incumbent on you to do something different with this team at this point. Whatever that is, we need to see it. Now.

 

[Combo]

Great rebound Hawk but why dribble it and allow a steal? As much hoops as he has played he should just put it up without dribbling!

He’s been doing this for 2.5 years. He may be a good passer, but he’s not a guard. Don’t put the ball on the floor w/o purpose in tight quarters.

 

[NJJ871]

Someone wake me when Hawkins shows up

 

[HailtotheChief]

Selfish play TSJ. Mayer was wide open!

 

[azillini1]

The announcer just said, "A team that likes each other shares the basketball." Must be why we have 2 or 3 assists!
