he'll never make it on the inside

[NeifiIsMyHomeBoy]

In my mind's eye, I see him holding a forty, wearing a wife beater and telling the cop how tough he is.

[Smack]

So now you're telling me Byrd shouldn't celebrate beating a storied program like Illinois?

 

On a serious note, this really sucks for the team. They were finally getting some momentum. Apparently Barlow was involved too and Painter suspended Barlow for the NCAA tourney last year for an incident that was never disclosed.

He does realize Meyers Leonard would destroy him, right? He was being funny, right? Edited February 17, 2012 by illiniguy

Are these actual 4 stars, or 4 stars in the way DJ Byrd's a 4 star?

 

I bet one of them's Jay Simpson, lol.

ML doesn't scare anyone. Jereme Richmond, now that [expletive] scares people. Byrd never ran his mouth at Richmond.

Oh man, just wait how until you see how tough St. Charles bred Kendall Stephens is, I bet he has DJ Byrd level toughness.

[Magnetic Curses]

they are 4-stars as awarded by the Helms Athletic Association

[scarey]

i live for getting under the skins of turdue fans. mainly db, but sometimes i like to point out to all of them that almost every big ten team has been more successful.

 

i just don't think it would be fair to put purdue and indiana in the saqme division.

 

Are we talking historically here? Purdue is leading the all time record at a record of 112-84 against Indiana. Purdue has a winning record against every Big Ten school in fact and have the most Big Ten Championships. Other than IU, I find it hard to believe any Big Ten school has had more success than Purdue.

 

I have to admit though, this was a nice trolling recovery for you. I just had to bite on this one.

[Magnetic Curses]

ah yes, that big ten and national juggernaut purdue

Uh... Illinois' only championship is from Helms as well... now if you want to waive losing in the NC game in our faces, go right ahead....

[Magnetic Curses]

postseason ANIMALS!

At least we've been to the final four in the last 30 years.

hahaha

[Magnetic Curses]

they're very proud of that thing, aren't they?

[Magnetic Curses]

yeah, it was real crappy making it to the title game. that season sucked.

[illiniguy]

they're very proud of that thing, aren't they?

They are an NBA factory though. In the past 50 years genres Glenn Robinson and .......

Jay Simpson is one of them. Scout found them all to be 4 star recruits. You guys can feel free to take your shots at Simpson, but I'll trust a major publication over a bunch of UofI homers.

All 4 are top 100 recruits according to Scout.

Congratulations?

 

I'm sure that will wow people in your coaching search. Might not wow them as much as the fanbase publicly fundraising a coaches contract buyout during a season.

[SouthSideRyan]

I wonder if our next coach will be an alum who tries to get away from all the student section weirdos until the school gives him a huge raise forcing him to stay.

[UMFan83]

Most Big Ten championships except 60% of them are from before 1940.

 

So yes Purdue was king back when they had to pause after every basket to remove the ball from the Peach bucket.

Wait, it bad our fans have the ability to raise money and won't accept mediocrity? Go on...

And they didn't allow blacks to play.

Purdue's got a lot more guys in the NBA right now than Illinois...

Way to go. None of them are impact players.
