It's almost like commentators who haven't watched us this year aren't aware of how much injuries disrupted our lineups throughout the season. So we've rarely been at 100%. But now? When it matters the most?
Broke out a bottle of Blantons myself.You guys … I’m thankful for each and everyone of you … Frustrated post games … Recruiting … The carousel … Nit Picking at things we could be better at …
These are the moments … I am enjoying it and I hope you are as well …
He can, but I'm begging for an X's and O's coach that can draw up in an inbound play. Way too many turnovers and unnervy moments
So Houston believed that keeping us from shooting 3's was how they could stop us? Ok, we will just go inside like we did vs VCU. Illini #1 offense in the nation? Looked like the #1 defense tonight! Props to the entire program. Great coaching and great execution ('cept them free throws). Elite!
You are not alone. Plenty of deserved criticism throughout the year, but did they ever put it all together and at the right time!
Can we continue all of tonight? LFG!!!!
I think that difficult conversation I suggested Josh have with Brad after the Wisconsin game can put on hold indefinitely.
Could Mashburn have been more biased!! Pathetic
Tomorrow should be a day of rest, strategy sessions, and PRACTICE FREE THROWS!!!!
A lot of us were skeptical about Drej, but this is why he took the money and came here. Wanted not only to get into the tournament, but get a legit chance to win a natty. That’s why he is showing up. And he will show up on Saturday….my bet.
I just did. And that was the first time I have ever criticized him.
What.A.Win
LFG!!!!!!!!!!
LFG!!!!!!!!!!
I’m having a ‘Mirkwagler”- a double double of Wild Turkey.
That was by far the best defense we have played this year. Why not 3 more?
Remember a few months back when @Dan was stressed/overwhelmed and didn't know if he wanted to keep this going?!? I am very thankful he did. This is a fantastic virtual community despite temporary frustrations. A HUGE thanks to Dan for creating and maintaining this. I know we don't always agree, but for tonight (and hopefully through the first week of April) we're all together and overjoyed.
Cheers, my Illini brethren!
