Game Thread: Illinois vs Notre Dame

[Nuke Dukem]

Hummel does a helluva job

 

[FloridaMan]

We need to close this one out strong. In dire need of a complete game and shot of confidence while everyone gets healthy.

 

[logjam]

I think the OP meant…why is he out of the game??

He's not healthy enough and they want to err on the side of caution on such a serious injury.

Who put Jaden Ivey in Blake Wesley's jersey? Geez.

Twitter: Illinois might only have 6 players available tonight against ND.

BU: "Call an ambulance...but not for me."

I’ve always thought he was a decent dude, even when he played.

 

[HailtotheChief]

You must not have BTN plus and watched the games when he turned it over and folks on here act as if he is Brian Cook. You must be a chest thumper too when you do well against someone you should stomp. I wanna see it against a good team. It was good to see Hawk be cool on that dunk and not get a T . He hopefully us maturimg.

BU has realized if you just win all game, you don’t have to make adjustments. Strategery.

The fire Nagy chants top the night off. Even had the announcers talking about it, crystal clear on tv too.

 

[WyattEarp]

Come on now…let’s get Pods in there.

He is 1 rebound behind Kofi in only a few minutes of time on the floor. To me, that is winning basketball. Not defending his to's but, he is playing winning basketball.

Whoever came up with the Goode = Lucas Johnson with a jumper comp earlier....
Yes.

 

[Nuke Dukem]

I did too but I sure was glad when he finally ran out of eligibility

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Can’t let them back in this game..

 

[FloridaMan]

Come on fellas. Keep up the intensity!

 

[Chillinini]

Luke Goode = Lucas Johnson

 

[DeonThomas]

Dare I say "eerily similar to the Marquette game at the 10-minute mark?"

This is where I got comfortable and fell asleep with the game on Tivo, only to wake up at 3am to check the final score and..............

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Kofi gets abused at one end, called for a touch foul on the other.

 

[ChiefGritty]

Hummel does a helluva job

Yeah he's outstanding.

 

[FloridaMan]

Turnovers......sigh

 

[hiberto]

like the toughness by Goode there. I have a feeling we're really going to like this kid

No way. If you commit 3 turnovers in the limited time he has played you will lose
Rebounds or not you cant give away offensive possessions. If he play starter minute he would gave 10 turnovers at least and we lose. As a team we need to average 10 or less a game and he and belo have been doing close to that. They must do better or sit . No one should play making careless turnovers game after game period.
The freshmen played well.

 

[mydosburns]

Good call on the time out there. Getting sloppy

 

[Epsilon]

We need to step on their necks and close this out stronger. We’re letting them keep hope alive.
