Give me back my Afta, heh heh
Tre White is way better than I knew.
Finishes well.
Finishes well.
Spend much time in Altgeld? Sorry, that was too easy and cheap.
Evens the score for a certain blowout football game.
Gotta give a shoutout to Tre White. Dude looked rough in the first few games but he has been consistently really good in the last 4-5 games. Really like how this team is shaping up after the NW/Tennessee losses. If we start finishing layups and Will gets going, the sky is the limit!
Well played.
They haven't f#&!ing forfeited yet?? Good for them.
Edit: oh, they WON. Oh boy. Get good sleep, boys.
From 18 to 9 on KenPom btw
This is why some on this board will never and should never coach. Prior to tonight, this group had only played 12 games together, yet you have people making hard line stances like....the "donors" being upset.
Happy for the kid and happy we have the coach we do. We're extremely fortunate and probably shouldn't take it for granted.
If you came into this game fresh and only watched the second half, would it be wrong to think that Jakucionis is the best player in the country???
Yes. But can he do it against high major competition….
LOL! I gave up on him during the "Game Thread." I insinuated that Davis become the starter.
Maybe it was just believing in oneself and finding your stroke. I loved how BH pulled a few Domask's during this game.
How about all of our games tip at 9:00? That was a good ol' fashioned beat down
He's the perfect player for our roster in that spot. He's Luther Powell, Jr.
Amazing contributions from so many guys tonight: I'm especially happy for Ben, Dra, and Jake. And Tre was absolute money on the fast break and cutting. But I think those two 3-pt buckets by Kylan in the 2nd half were absolutely huge. Oregon had been on a bit of a run, cutting the lead from 20+ down to 12 with KJ on the bench, if I'm not mistaken. And Kylan calmly knocked down a couple of 3s within a few possessions of each other to maintain the lead around 15. It's so cool to have guys who can create space and knock down clutch 3s.
The team against NU had no confidence. As Tom Petty sang, "There's been a chaaanngggee . . . " Just keep playing with this confidence and the Big Ten title can be had along with a Final Four run. The bench! My Gawd!
