We are an extremely high IQ team this year. I remember saying the complete opposite every game last year. As a fan over 30 years now I am truly appreciating this team.
This is the best ball movement, with purpose to find an open man, that I have seen by any Illini team since Dee, Deron, and Luther were together. Man, this team is fun to watch. Elite defense to boot.
And to add. I feeling like moving forward after this season this coaching staff will be able to get which ever transfer they want in the next few years at least.
The -decisiveness- of this team on offense, and the 100% buy-in on D that we're seeing tonight is championship caliber.
Having a bunch of tall athletes that can switch 1-5 sure doesn't hurt.
Remember when we couldn’t draw a foul and get to the free throw line to save our lives in previous years? Every single guy attacking the basket, drawing contact, getting freebies. High basketball iq.
