Absolutely huge minutes by DGL
Game Thread: Illinois vs Wisconsin

Huge that tsj didn’t pick up a 2nd foul in the first half with the way these refs have been calling it
Can’t really complain with anything we did (other than going under on Storr once or twice). I felt like the Badgers got some lucky bounces and made some tough shots. Too many fouls, but feel like that’s a product of a tight whistle. We need to attack Wahl in the 2nd half and keep him in foul trouble

Watching their whole team backing up anticipating the freight train drive while he drains a three. Chef’s kiss
And just think ... There are outlets who will NOT vote this kid to be an All American ...
This kid is WITHOUT A DOUBT the 2nd best player in the country when he plays like this ... And the only kid better is 7'4 ...

Agreed. He played some really solid minutes. Played within himself, wasn't forcing it, played good team ball. That's what earns you playing time

So many fouls being called.
But both teams playing fairly well.

Maybe the highest level of play by both teams in any game this weekend. Counting that Storr will not continue his anomaly play. He is good, but not that good.
Having the lead at the turn is not a bad thing.
Can't complain about much, and Brad is having trouble finding things to complain about too in his halftime interview. Just keep playing hard and smart and make them have to all- time to win...don't think that will happen but we will know in about an hour.
With so many fouls being called, the good thing is that among Illini starters, no one has more than one.

I agree about DGL. Get stronger in the off season and he will be a blur. Go Illini.
Hopefully Ty can avoid getting an early third foul in the second half. Feel like Wiscy may be wearing down a bit in their fourth game. Cautiously optimistic.
Might have to tune in to Brian and Deon with the way the TV crew is calling this one so far.

Underwood has played a great game so far

He's a sophomore with a few years to grow in his decisionmaking (if he's in college that long). He seems like an ideal candidate to replace TSJ if he does hit the portal.
This board feels much better at the half, than yesterday. Now turn n the jets, their legs are tired.

I honestly feel the refs have been pretty decent today.
Hope he sticks around. That our value proposition is compelling to the young man and his family of trusted advisors
We're 9-12, which is pretty good, but hard to be better than 100%.
Yeah I just mute and watch these days.
Agreed 100%. If the staff thinks he’s coachable, he’ll be a monster next year and beyond
