Game Thread: Illinois vs Oakland

[The Sprouting Divot]

Kind of uncomfortable that Bardo cited Riley's acne as proof of his age.

 

[band camp]

God other Big Ten forums are going to be in flames if they keep calling these Riley flops lol

And I'm here for it.

 

[Illini4Christ]

Riley is so much fun to watch

Killer is going to score 50 points in a game pretty soon.

 

[Ryllini]

This is the first time I’ve been able to see them live, but this defense has promise. We haven’t played anyone, but they are in position and are long. Also, love to see the boys crashing the glass.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Well Brad has his first 1 and done lottery pick recruiting pitch locked up lmao

Interested to see how he handles the physicality and athleticism of Bama. Actually, I'm interested to see how they all handle it. That game will give a great pulse of where we're at.

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

It's just really freaking cool to see all the moves Will showed in his highlight videos happening in actual college games. Everything about his skill set just translates smoothly. The quick release, first step, ability to jump off either foot, and hit shots at awkward angles is beautifully displayed. Yeesh. I can't get over it.

Whatever. We are owed every single one of them.

I have an Excel spreadsheet.

I agree. That should be completely out of bounds. Really unnecessary.

Total cringe.

 

[LoveLovie]

Tomi jumped early, still got the rebound, and put it back. Sheesh

AIR DGL!

 

[Miles Leonard]

DGL steal and flush!

 

[CDRUSN]

Man DGL is dialed in, great growth from last year when he was still adjusting to D1 ball.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

DGL did that all himself that possession. Ben's feet sunk into the floor for about 5 seconds lol

 

[hoopsfan47]

Can anyone name another great athlete from Kitchener, Ontario? He was a US national champion.

Two time USGA Amateur Champion Gary Cowan....now 86. Class act and elite talent.

 

[FloridaMan]

Refs have dinner reservations afterward? Lot of contact going uncalled lately.

 

[madillini4]

Ugly last 3 minutes

 

[BBlock24]

Shots are a little off so far, but they’re getting good looks. They’ll fall eventually.

 

[skyIdub]

MAD BRAD ACTIVATE

 

[New Creation]

Why the tech?

 

[Mr. Roberts]

KJ playing like a freshman today.

 

[madillini4]

That had to feel good for Kylan

We're being really impatient on offense

 

[FloridaMan]

We have trouble driving when the perimeter D is turned up. Need to figure that out before Alabama game.
