I thought tOSU would be undefeated and ranked going into our game on Dec 9th.
Maybe not if they are giving up that many to IU Indy
I didn't realize Carmelo Anthony's son is a freshman at Cuse. Had 15 pts in his debut yesterday.
Duke vs Texas is a fun one tonight. Boozer is supposedly must watch TV and Sean Miller's first game at Texas.
Illini in Italy
- Illini HQ, Florida Panhandle
Morez was 10/12 from the field (0/2 from 3pt) with 20 of 24 pts coming in the first half. His Shot chart shows that ScUM was doing what they do best, pound it inside against a much smaller team (only two players over 6'8").
Boise St (53 on KenPom) lost to D-II Hawaii Pacific 79-78. Yikes
Eastern Illinois @ Valpo, tonight 7pm
Florida will be fine. I think their guards will settle in and be good.. maybe not as good as last year (that's not a slight). I think their frontcourt had an off game and peat ate them up. but that may be just cuz he's awesome.
Arizona was impressive and just pounded the ball inside against arguably the best frontcourt in the country. imagine what they will go against other teams. they attempted only 5 3s all game and would have won fairly comfortable if they knew how to inbounds the ball (I shouldn't make fun of that considering our issues in the past). Jayden Bradley and Koa are a good 1-2 punch. they are legit
Purdue looking quite average. Rebounding may be an issue for them
Agree…. however their best player oit for this game.
I'll leave the TKR being their best player alone. but anyone know why he is sitting? assume injury
Missed TKR being out. Definitely changes that…I’m gonna choose to leave the orange glasses on and believe they’ll struggle!
hip injury… sounds minor. I should have said… leading scorer!

"I can't tell you. Secret."
In the same conference as Sister Mary Barnum Baily Circus Clown University....and The Buddhist Temple College of Chanting Monks.
I think they were picked 5th in conference pre season.
Michigan fans reactions when they see morez leave the paint for the 3 point line
it's not like you picked howdy doody (fletcher loyer) and picked an all big ten first team guy in the. but yeah Braden is their best player
Joel Goodson
- how was I to know, she was with the Russians too?
nope, no way. c'mon, man
I’m sorta flabbergasted that when he praises his coaching staff (like every other player that gets interviewed does) that people think it has anything to do with Illinois
Howdy doody for 30… dudes on a heater!
The "letting me evolve my game" part is a pretty clear jab, IMO. Context, of course, being that he mentioned "not wanting to end up like Kofi" when he parted ways last year. As we all pointed out, being a multiple time All American is not the slight he made it out to be but I digress...
I think there is also a part of him that knows (even subconsciously) that he is perceived to have left for more money after his contract was signed. To me, going out and trying to rebrand it as a developmental move instead of a financial choice is somewhere in the mix as well.
I could be completely out of line here.. but after firing some shots on the way out last spring...it's hard for me not to see it as a jab.
