[QUOTE="EyeoftheIllini, post: 1569768, member: 623415"] I had no problem with Trent dribbling it out that way either. Just saying that in my book potentially showing up team or player is more bush league than playing defense when you’re behind. Curbelo could not have dribbled out clock, so why not play D — especially against the guy who just stole it from you. They’re trying to establish a culture there too — and have to play Illini again. People are fond of saying “well then stop them if you don’t like it” when a football team scores late in a blowout win and running up the score is brought up. Don’t see this as much different and Wheeler played D. Now if he had mauled Curbelo that would be different, but he just gave him a push. I applaud Ayo for coming to Curbelo’s defense. But nothing bush league about Wheeler’s play in my book. [/QUOTE]
