I knew we had a good one in Marcus, but he has completely blown past expectations. A complete gamer.

Feels good to be going into R2 with a matchup *on paper* we should win if we play our game. Let’s get to the second weekend folks!

Goode!!!! Great defense, hit the open shots and some good rebounds!

Thank you sir!

DGL with a nice game too, hitting two 3’s in the first when it was needed.

Dain! Game ball.

TJ. All American defense and offense!

Marcus. Best point guard in America!

Coleman, a complete game.

Nice win going away

Smart and mature move by Dain to slow play the season so there would be less film on him when it came time for the tourneys.

Good teams win, great teams cover!

Any negative comments I may have made in the first 24 minutes of game action are clearly not reflective of any thoughts/opinions that I hold myself accountable for...

I was as nervous and frustrated as anyone, but we DID IT. We pulled away! I will also remind everyone what the halftime score was about 19 years ago in our 2005 First Round game!

2005
#1 Illinois 32
#16 Fairleigh Dickinson 31

2024
#3 Illinois 39
#14 Morehead State 38

Way to get your heads right and get a dominant win, boys! Let's go to the Sweet Sixteen!!!!
I was at that game in 2005. Talk about nerves!
