And our guy Ayo did not have one of his best games and we still won. GB really deserves a lot of credit for how he played. We needed that energy when he came in and his offense was fantastic!
Amen. I’ve been an Illini hoops fan since before I moved into the six pack freshman year, but finding this board took my connection to this team and this fan base to new, possibly unhealthy, levels. Having this board to turn to everyday has helped some of us through rough years that didn’t have anything to do with Illini Basketball. Can’t wait to enjoy the ride with all of you.

Thanks, I have been waiting for a post to say this.
This team has (to date) accomplished a once in a generation feat without ever playing in front of a live Illini crowd. The seniors were also denied the usual in person send off. Ayo and Kofi will leave without hearing the well deserved applause of a live audience.
The Assembly Hall is too small to hold the crowd they deserve.
Pick an off date tor the Coliseum and give them all the send off they deserve.

Curious - what's the 1 in a generation feat?
Sorry - I can’t like a post that implies Kofi leaving is a done deal.
thought Adam Miller's post-game tweets poking fun at Jon Rothstein's milquetoast posting style were fun.

I have to admit - watching them cut down the nets in Indy brought back memories of 2005, that is the celebration we all thought we would have back then
If you haven't watched the Kofi and Giorgi post-game interview yet, then I revoke your Illini fan card.
Its amazing.
Its amazing.
love the post-game vids, but the vids from some of the guys are not encouraging. Be smart!

Boy, I don't like the sound of that. Do we have players breaking quarantine tonight?
Huh? Like what?
I can't confirm myself where it was shot, but if they were giving out their address and numbers in the post-game. Bad!

I think that's their apartment in Champaign. They are nowhere near that right now. I saw it as a joke about where they will be hosting a party after the NCAA tournament is long over.

I really don’t want to go to bed. I just don’t want this day to end. Days like this don’t come often.
