  1. Iowa Brody Boyd. Even his name was annoying.
  2. No, I don't. (And they're not as bad as Duke) I can't stand when a team plays aggressive defense and hold and grabs a lot, but then the fans bitch when they are called for a foul or when the other team tries to do the same to them. It seems to be a quality shared by PU and Duke fans. You're upset that a student section reacts to fouls against their team? Think about how irrational that is for a second. Do you really expect them all to just quietly sit down following a foul? There's always going to be a double standard no matter what team we're talking about. Just because Purdue tends to play aggressive defense with a lot of contact means their students need to act differently? I don't mid some reaction. I hate how evertime a foul is called on Purdue they were cheated. Hell smack thought you were getting hosed today. It is ridiculous. you get called for more fouls because your guys hack.
  3. Cavs eliminated. Happy Valentine's day, Cleveland. I don't get how it doesn't bother LeBron that he crippled his home town team.
  4. cubbiebum. Paint Crew Let's assume that the Purdue students are more obnoxious (or whatever it is you hate about them). Do you have an explanation for why they are soooooooo much worse than every other student section in the nation? No, I don't.

  5. I would love to have Billy Clyde back.
  6. Your expectations are out of whack. Wright/Dixon would only leave their respective schools for a UNC/Duke/Kansas type of job. How's Sean Miller down in Arizona? Perhaps he's had enough of Pac 10 land and wants to come back to the Midwest. Grant is another name I'd consider. I'd also look for long tenured assistants at major programs, perhaps a Chris Collins. Holy [expletive], I'd rather promote Jay Price than hire Collins Millhouse's dad?

No, god please no more long tenured assistant coaches. And I want no part of K's tree.
  8. Because he played at Purdue. Are you serious with this? I also wouldn't want him. He runs the same type of system that makes me want to poke my eyes out with a stick and soon will be going through what we are as his recruiting has sucked.
  9. Van Gundy Hell offer Lon the job again. And get shut out of Chicago again? Give jerrance a mil a year to stay on and be the next coach.
  10. McCamey's been having the worst game of his career every game for the past 2 months Worse than 1-10 with 4 assists and 3 turnovers? I doubt it. Every loose ball was going to Purdue too. You must have missed the OSU game. Or the Indiana game Or at Penn State.
  11. Van Gundy Hell offer Lon the job again.
  12. I know you are trying to help, but if it was just this game fine. We freaking find ways to lose games like this. If I could pick Paul, Richmond, and Richardson or Terone Johnson, Byrd, and Barlow. Well... that's pretty easy... Paul and Richardson did both play 32 minutes, so at least he's letting them play. Richmond had a tough game, but I don't think there's any doubt about his ability. I don't watch a lot of Illinois ball, but Cole displayed horrible body language throughout. I can't believe losing him isn't a good thing. Cole is the number one player in America in offensive efficiency.
  13. I'd love to have those two but why would either of them leave where they are now to come to Illinois? Wright is a Philly guy and you can't underestimate the damage that Weber has done to our program the past 5 years in the nations perspective. We have to hire an up and comer that is convinced we are a sleeping giant.

  16. We've said that the past what 5 classes now? I remember how excited I was to see Stan Simpson in the orange and blue I meant more the seniors leaving. Going back to the crazies that wanted Dee gone. Yeah I'm just picking nits and making a bad sarcastic joke to cope. I see what you're saying, but these seniors have a real Pruitt/Randle leadership feeling about them. I don't think any of them are as destructive as Pruitt was, but I have a feeling I'll be happier with Brandon and Jereme as de facto leaders compared to DMac and Tisdale I just think that until Weber goes it's gonna be the same thing over and over again. The only guy on this team I can stomach right now is Paul. Even Richmond makes me want to throw something right now.
  17. Tom Crean? Awesome.
  18. We have to fire Weber. We are irrelevent. That's the worst thing you can be.

  21. He sat them both 3 minutes. He showed them.
  22. It's like his season ended at the first Penn St. game. What the hell happened?
  23. I remember when we never lost at home, when were always worried about seeding in the NCAA tournament, and when we would compete for the conference title. Now watching them makes my eyes bleed.
  24. Weber isn't going anywhere. God bless Illinois athletics.
  25. Our last 3 hires, two were great. So yeah of course we will hire poorly.
