College Basketball 2011-2012

Kruger figured he'd preemptively avoid all snark by going over the top.

 

Well to that I say how impressed I am they were able to snag big names like Hollis Price and Quannas White.

Illinois isnt having a midnight madness. Awesome. So all the 2013 and 2014 kids will go to someone else's midnight madness. The journey to a mid major is almost complete.

Why the [expletive] not?

[Magnetic Curses]

they didn'y want to disappoint anyone.

[illiniguy]

Why the [expletive] not?

Because we are stupid?

The JV squad in Danville already had plans? :-)

Sporting News has conference predictions out. Has Illinois finishing 9th in the B1G. How in the hell is this possible with the way we are recruiting now? Oh that's right, we have the worst coach this side of Dave Bliss.

No [expletive] way do we finish ninth. That's just crazy talk.

[SouthSideRyan]

Sporting News was last relevant in the 1960s.

[SouthSideRyan]

And Dave Bliss wasn't a bad coach, just a disgraceful human being.

Which is more relevant now? TSN or George Michael's Sports Machine?

If we don't finish in the top 3 I'm gonna be pissed. This is year 3 of his fixed recruiting and the rest of the Big Ten isn't very good. That said I imagine we will be closer to 9th than 1st, again.

It's still a national publication that considers us to be irrelevant. Which Weber has basically made us.

You're such a drama queen

[Magnetic Curses]

well, maybe this year we'll overachieve, then.

 

i think we'll finish top 5, for the record.

[SouthSideRyan]

Where does The Sports Machine predict us?

Eh the Cubs are awful, I have to have a team that's good to follow. Hate that it can't be Illinois basketball anymore.

[BleacherBadger]

These reactions are awesome.

This is only sort of college hoops related, as the kid has committed to Ball State to play basketball, but this pisses me off. His family still lives right next door to my dad and there's no reason he should be allowed to play this year. There are no extenuating circumstances whatsoever and I hope the IHSA sticks it to him and doesn't let him play.

Ugh, Orris to Illinois

[illiniguy]

Ugh, Orris to Illinois

We are gonna whiff on all the big 2013 kids.

why do you say that? why does orris committing mean any of the actual good players will stay away?

Well this takes a scholly away, plus just from what I'm reading it sounds as if Hamilton has cooled on us big time. And no way is Parker playing for Bruce Weber, he's pretty much said as much. When he talks about what he likes at Illinois he always says he's good friends with Jerrance.
