[QUOTE="NunnsAndDunks, post: 1185731, member: 519021"] I don't know what you guys expect. We got unlucky with injuries this year; that's it. Groce probably isn't one of the best coaches in the bigten, but he's certainly not one of the worst either. He's also young, and will learn and improve. The facts are that no other team in the conference (other than Rutgers, who suck even worse than us) has three players injured right now. Pretty much every team has 1 or 2 out. We've had 3-4 out all season. And all three players that are out now were expected to either start or at least be significant contributors. The fact that this team is managing to stay competitive in most games, speaks volumes to their effort, which I think Groce should get a lot of the credit for, and the talent of Hill and Nunn. Yes, it sucks to watch our Illini lose, but this season was always going to be a lost cause with the injury situation. What we should be watching for is player development and effort, both of which I think have been positive. Just look at the game Aaron Jordan had!
