Seeing our players hug the B10 trophy, I realize was wrong. Winning the B10 tourney is a huge victory for these players. They have been the best team in the B10. Hooray, they got to celebrate for a great year. Now lets focus on the biggest prize. Still stay with BU system and play D, play 8 deep, and get TO buckets. Wow as a fan of 40+ years, this is the greatest year. Our Illini has a true triple threat, Kofi, Ayo, & Curbelo can go get bucket, while the foundation of De Monte, Trent & Georgi keep us grounded. Adam's D growth has been impressive, Jacob has quietly has helped us get buckets and play D, and the rest of the team do their jobs. This is a truly special year. BTW, I love having the best 6th man come on the floor as the answer. Congrat's to Alan last year & Andre this year. Our opponents have to get exhausted trying taking the 2nd punch. Most of all, Ayo has helped set the culture of defense and energy, he is a true special player. Top 5 players in my life as an Illini fan, and that is a heck of a complement.
