Game Thread: Illinois vs Texas

[BlindLoyalty]

Texas looks tougher, faster and stronger so far. Thankfully they are not shooting well.

 

[illiniguy24]

Are we not getting fouled almost every possession??

Who is Michael Mayer?

He kills people…

 

[chudaman]

down 15-10 at the under 12 to

 

[SuperMetroid]

What offense are we running?

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

I've got a fresh $100 for anybody that can diagram and explain our offense

 

[ChiTown]

No ball movement!…you get better looks once the ball start moving.

Outstanding fake by Mayer. He's playing like the guy we thought we got from Baylor today and then some. Been really really good. RJ just needs to bury that open three.

 

[Mistakenj]

We look terrible and yet are only down 5

Hawkins telling competition Bring It!!!

Dain is not good enough not to pass it out of the post when he catches the ball. It's obvious he's shooting every time when he catches it.

 

[HailtotheChief]

Gotta not turn it over n make a decent percentage of good looks. RJ has had two...they are focused on TSJ. someone needs to step up

We are running zero offense today..not sure why.

Who is Michael Mayer?

Very dangerous inside, some call him unstoppable.
Not a great family situation though.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

We need some Sencire energy.

 

[blife]

apparently, Texas strategy is to commit 2 to 3 fouls on every possession to make it impossible to call them all, so refs just call none

 

[IllinialuminAZ]

6 TO and 6 fouls in 8 minutes.

 

[Godard]

No ball movement!…you get better looks once the ball start moving.

And too many threes...Scylla, meet Charybdis!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Mayer singlehandedly keeping us in this game

 

[CDRUSN]

Offense not as in sync as monkey sh*t fights at the zoo so far.

Melendez should know better by now.
