How sweet it is.
Total Team MF Effort.
Getting our seat at the Sweet Sixteen took contributions from all the heroes. But especially the Balkan Avengers. Lotta grownass man dunks… but also a lot of savvy defensive plays.
Gotta love how Tomi and Andrej are playing, right now. It’s nothin but carnage from here on out, but to cash in on our lotto ticket, we need those two showing up just like tonight and our shooters hot. Ben was also near perfect, this week.
And yooooo… Zvonimir’s coast to coast, block to glock! One of the greatest sequences of Illini tournament history.
I’m gonna savor this. This win is gonna make the whole of next week feel extra nice.
After these two wins, it’s absolutely rational to feel as high about this team as we have, all year. This has been one of the most impressive first weekends in our program’s history.
How sweet it is!!! Great to see Tomi and Stoj play so well! Who will I be seeing in Houston?!?

I feel like we couldn’t have asked for a better opponent than VCU to prepare us for a physical Houston team. We've seen it. We've dealt with it. We know we can play our game through it.
Andrej and Tomi!!!!!
Bring that game!
Great halftime adjustments all around!

Legendary.
Congrats to the coaches and players!
I've been waiting to drop this beauty of a GIF for a couple of games now...
We can definitely beat Houston. Is everyone ready for a FF season? I know I am
There was a scary 10ish minute stretch… but it all worked out. Only real concern is the number of turnovers we had tonight. But I’ll worry about that later. For now….
