Agreed. La Bamba is great, and La Salsa was fantastic when it was open too. Pretty close, and both solid options.(Semi)respectfully disagree

Speaking of Champaign Mexican food - nothing tops Dos Reales nowadays.
You and Kevin Mitchell?There was a picture of me hanging in Zorba's in the form of the News Gazette clipping from the 2007 win at Ohio State. It was my claim to fame in Champaign. When Zorba's went up in flames, so did my lasting impact.
Maize. Maize absolutely does (even though I have found memories of Dos Reales)Speaking of Champaign Mexican food - nothing tops Dos Reales nowadays.
So, you had Friday classes your first semester of college? Or were you on the Van Wilder plan?Didn’t have a Friday class my last seven semesters of Undergrad, and spent many a hungover Friday morning/afternoons walking to Maize to start my weekend. Never failed.
RECRUITING NEWS??????
Take it elsewhere, foodies....
Unfortunately there really isn’t much news. Plus High School recruiting has changed so much based on transfers that it is not uncommon for a player to commit and then change plans. For me it is interesting to see who we are interested in but when over 50% of the roster is new each year and most of that happens in April-June it is hard to know what the team will look like next yearRECRUITING NEWS??????

Need some cruitin news...
This is ridiculous.Of the last 21 posts in this thread:
12 posts about food
8 posts bemoaning the food talk
1 post analyzing the 20 prior posts
Of these three varieties of posts (and in the absence of any actual news), one is much more interesting than the other two.
The Original Juice(TM)You and Kevin Mitchell?
Like a Phoenix, you arose from the ashes and were reborn.
Cottage cheeseThis is ridiculous.
On a related note. What's your go-to for indigestion?
Cottage cheese
yes. There's no point in taking any high school kid that isn't a top 30 guy or a project. All the ones in between transfer. So you take no brainers and projects from high school, and fill out most of your roster through the transfer portal.
I hate it, but it's what college basketball is if you're smart.
Do you have recruiting news?I don’t come here to reminisce about campus food of the past. I come for recruiting news. Start a thread somewhere else for your food talk.
Cartman is that you...?
What kind of NIL packages do they offer?
Nope and I doubt that many of us come to reminisce about what we used to eat at the U of I. At least I don’t, but maybe that’s just me. If you don’t have anything to post related to recruiting don’t post it here. I’m sure you can start a thread somewhere else that you can talk about the restaurants that you loved, but the last I knew this thread is supposed to be related to recruiting. (Even my rant is more related to recruitment than the b.s. about la bamba and Garcias. Both great places, but damn, isn’t this a recruiting thread?)Do you have recruiting news?
