[QUOTE="21ChampaignSt, post: 2038954, member: 748616"] Let this now and forever be known as The Terrance Shannon Jr. Tournament. He just willed us to a championship. And after what he's been through this year, I can't imagine how good he feels right now. Absolutely legendary performance. Really happy for this team. There have been some frustrating moments, but overall I just flat out like them and wanted to see them cement their legacy with some kind of hardware. People remember: 2001 (B1G regular season champs) 2002 (B1G regular season champs) 2003 (B1G tournament champs) 2004 (B1G regular season champs) 2005 (duh). But people rarely talk about 2006. Why? Because they had no hardware. Top 10 in KenPom, top 15 AP, led by an all time great Illini. But nothing to show for it. They're just an artifact of the 2005 team. Now people will remember the 2024 team for a long time, as they should. Not done yet. [/QUOTE]
