Really happy for the guys and for the coach. Bottom line, lots of Illini veterans that I want to see finish strong. We have enough pieces to this squad to get a bid.
I would love to see these guys scratch, claw, and scrape their way to the NCAA bid somehow. It all starts with a win like this. Gotta build on it and win some that are unexpected. BUT... what I fear the most is that we hand any good wins away by losing games we can't afford to lose. I'll be watching with trepidation every time we play a "we should win this one" game.
