Great season. Need to add some motion sets next season. You can’t rely on pick and pop all the time.

Thing is with dynasties, they seem to get all the lucky bounces.
You won't win any Final 4 games ever shooting 23% from 3 and 34% from the field.
They played good enough to win, but couldn't hit the broadside of a barn shooting.

It was a great year no doubt but this game sucked.

Our shot selection (settling for 3s instead of working it inside) did us in.
Still so proud of these guys. They did a great job repping the orange and blue and never quit. This team is special and deserves to be remembered as such

Good year boys. Hopefully some of you can stick around for next year.
I now hate UConn as much as UNC.

What a hell of a season.
GREAT SEASON. Let's run it back.
UConn just has our number. It feels like we're never going to beat them.
We played with them, just missed a lot of shots we normally make. Great, great year.

So proud of this team. This is a season we'll remember, and hopefully the beginning of many deep runs in March Madness.

It's a game of making open shots. Didn't happen in this one.
Heck of a year!

Yeah, I'm not pissed. Bummed, but not pissed. I thought the game was called evenly by the refs and we just couldn't hit shots when open.
In this game? Not true at all. Couldn’t hit open 3’s.
What a season. I freakin love the Illini! See you in Detroit in 2027,
I don't like UCONN. Never liked them. Just a snobby, entitled blue blood for 30 years.
The worst thing about UCONN winning is I have to watch Hurley strut, preen, and act like a jerk for one more game.
But.
I'm proud if this season's Illini team. The U of I is an "it" team, with the right coaching staff to sustain.

Too many mistakes. What a season though
An incredible year.
I hate that it ends this way.
That was a winnable game and a very beatable team.
6-26 from three and handful of missed shots around the rim were the story.

Nothing went our way this game. Thems the breaks. Keep most of our guys and make another run next year.
