  1. I love the irony in Matt Painter putting the final bullet in Weber head though. It should be your friend that takes you out.
  2. Could Frankie have went for 50 with the ice man guarding him?
  3. And SAMs back in.
  4. I don't understand what's happened to him. He's a shell of the kid that was the foty. he's a jumpshooter and he always has been I guess the book is just out on him now.
  5. I don't understand what's happened to him. He's a shell of the kid that was the foty.
  6. Needs to play. Gotta develop him for his car salesman gig.
  7. Maniscalco can hardly walk. Unreal.
  8. Our Rudy plays 30 minutes a night.
  9. Cause he made the first one? I guess.
  10. His lack of cool is the least of his problems as a head coach. Now that we have Jerrance I agree. It was a big problem early on. See our '08 recruiting class.
  11. Good lord he oozes cool in his pre game talks.
  12. Maniscalco is gonna play tonight. Gonna wear a big knee brace. He's made one basket this calendar year, Weber should be fired right now.
  13. Well, that certainly isn't true. Thanks Ron Guenther, Thad wasn't ready for a big gig......
  14. Is that how it works? Any salary earned as a coach is deducted from the buyout? Depends on the contract, but from what I've read that is the case with Webers contract.
  15. Yep, plus I think we went cheap on football hire because Thomas knows what we are. There is money to be spent. Hopefully Smart want the job.
  16. Illinois won't be on the hook for all of Webers salary is my bet. He's not gonna sit at home and retire. He won't work for TV, have you heard his voice? I bet he's back at a mid major quickly.
  17. He's not choosing which school to jump to though, inertia isn't a trivial thing if the difference isn't huge. Personally, I hope Buzz goes there because he's a tool and consolidating my distaste for him and Illinois would be a nice efficiency. :roll:
  18. Good lord Webers press conference after the game was just awkward. Someone is resigned to their fate. Edit: how do you turn off auto correct?
  19. Holy crap, forgot we had a game today. Lol doesn't sound like I missed much.
  20. I doubt it, probably will be a replay of the other night - Illini hang in there, Michigan starts getting a bunch calls, their coach, who actually has an active brain cell, realizes this and has everything going to the hoop - game over. I'm still pissed about the other night, when the officiating was called in such a manner, you've got to be just as aggressive and force them to make calls. It's a way of exposing one way officiating I think. I know they jump shoot well at IU, so you don't want to go to a 2-3 zone. I prolly would have tried a 1-3-1 to prevent them from driving, if only Bruce didn't have that fear of telling Gene why he played a zone.
  21. Our roster is so loaded. Other teams have no idea how good Shaw and Henry are. Just like Leonard and Bertrand last year, they're freshman. Bruce doesn't do freshman unless he has to.
  22. I mean I get what they are saying, it isn't an elite program. I would argue it's an elite job though. Prior to Weber our coaches parlayed this job into the Kansas job and a pro job. It's very close to Chicago and has a rabid fan base.
  23. And it was done by Dean Oliver.... Oh the other one.
  24. Trying to help the Bulls get the #1 pick in 4 years. I don't think they can get it out of the protected zone by then either. What happens if they contract that team? Stern isn't going to contract Michael Jordans team. He also wanted a team in Charlotte bad enough to give it two tries.
