  1. Nice. Now do Nico.
  2. I would probably let the Ivisic twins go if their NIL demands are anything significant. That money can be better spent elswhere. Bring back Mirk, Stojakovic, and Davis, then find some athletic types to fill the holes. MAYBE Stojakovic takes a little less to stay at Illinois because he doesn't want to start over on a 4th team in 4 years?
  3. The path just opened up for Illinois, but Houston stands in their way. Thursday night's game just got even bigger, knowing that the next one after that will be a very winnable game if they can get there.
  4. Houston is (always) a very tough match-up for Illinois. I'm not optimistic about Thursday's game, but you never know.
  5. I have no idea how that shot didn't go in.
  6. But if Sutcliffe fills in on the West Coast, then they dont have to pay JD's travel and per diem. That sounds ridiculous for a team worth what the Cubs are, but it may just be reality.
  7. What a boring day of games today.
  8. The Cubs organization should be embarrassed... Using the A's broadcast on their own network? Maybe they can just stop sending the crew on the road altogether.
  9. Love me some Skynyrd, but if I hear Free Bird one more time tonight...
  10. Can we get rid of the banner ads promoting becoming a caretaker when we already have caretaker status?
  11. I have no idea if numbers back this up, but so often it feels like the trailing team starts getting calls that the leading team doesn't. The team in the lead has to earn their points, while the trailing team is given the benefit of the doubt to keep the game close. Again, this could all be in my head, but I'm not sure that it is.
  12. The foul on Illinois against Blackwell in OT was as egregious a call you will ever see. Considering the importance of that moment in the game makes it even worse. Illinois put themselves in that position and deserved to lose, but that doesn't excuse the referees for such an awfully called game. I don't watch enough non-B1G games to know whether it is like this all across college basketball, but B1G officiating is unacceptably poor and wildly inconsistent.
  13. I'm not sure whether it is really the shoulder, or that the scouting report is out now and teams are playing him much more physically than they were earlier in the season.
  14. I would also prefer the first baseman to be taller than 5'6".
  15. This team cant even tank right. They are hopeless.
  16. NCAA is perfectly content letting their golden child head coach handle matters in-house, which he won't actually do.
  17. A step slow, not very strong, and shooting terribly. He is a big guy who doesn't do big guy things, and now he can't shoot either.
  18. That isn't happening. We all know how this plays out. The roster will be completely different again next season, with maybe 2 or 3 (non-Wagler) guys from the current team coming back.
  19. Thielbar and Little, yikes.
  20. Justin Turner, come on down!
  21. Yeah, it's stupid, but I guess they can probably make more money by selling the time to a sports gambling outfit.
  22. I thought the game was called fairly well. You just can't let a team go all the way down the court for a layup in 5 seconds. Inexcusable.
