Reed will be a problem tonight cant let him gobble up them offensive rebounds. We must be tougher cant give them anything cheap or free
Not the ideal start. Hang in there.

Going to be a long night if the Illini can't box out Reed.
We ha e had great looks ftom 3. Gotta hit em.
We gotta figure the defense out quick or we are gonna get abused all night
Box out Z!!
Tittie twist Tomi early this game and let him go to work on the block against Reed. Get him in foul trouble.
This is big boy basketball
Nothing against Jake. He's not that.
He shouldn't even see the double digit mins he's been seeing tonight

Gotta box out, Z. Can’t let Reed control the paint
Sadly none of them are playing.
Rebound the ball.
I think I would take it hard and right at and to Taris Reed on the inside.
Well, not getting caught up on screens and contesting them would help.

I like that Mirkovic hasn't been assigned to chase Karaban around so far
He will and there is not much we can do about that. Gotta keep Mullins from going nuts though.
I know BU likes starting Jake but man. He hasnt shot ut great lately and id maybe prefer Andre or even Ben vs these guys for D. Its early, Jake and others will hit some threes witj our crowd there suppprting em
Not a horrible start offensively but we have to figure out the defensive end or it will be a long day. I think we might just do that.
