how is this hit not a personal foul? since when can you leave your feet to tackle the QB?

Post of the day! you guys watch commercials? your remotes broken?

I hope the NCAA is thrilled that it got 0% of the BCS games right this year.

doing well at scoring and rebounding probably gives him a better chance than someone who does neither also, Cornely isn't in mock drafts because he's a junior, so stop telling me he won't be drafted

i wouldn't say that they'll both be drafted. one mock draft i saw (just the first one i found on google) has claxton in the second round and cornley undrafted. nba draft is only two rounds, and that includes four classes of college players along with foreign players. i do think that they'll both get invited to camps at the very least. neither guy is gonna be a real good scorer, but if they dedicate themselves to rebounding and defense, they can make a niche for themselves in the league. cornley's negative is his height (he's a forward and only 6'5") but he does have a wide body. cornely is only a junior. i doubt he goes pro this year. he's also recovering from an injury Claxton is currently second in the Big 10 in scoring (behind Gordon) and rebounding (behind White). Cornley has a better body and could be dominating next year. He was also Freshman of the Year two seasons ago

i love how fans of a team that sucks so bad right now are still so self righteous. no wonder everyone hates Illini Nation

So therefore, beckpeddaled :D Ok Im done i think Penn State just got another offensive rebound I think Illinois just got another star recruit for 09-10 hope you're patient and isn't Bruce Weber the worst recruiter in history? I think I read that somewhere He woke up, and is a Penn State basketball fan really talking about recruiting? Who is Penn States biggest recruit in basketball, John Amechi? Lol i'm just talking about the thread that either you or your Illini Nation bretheren continuously post in. btw, how many future NBA players are on the Illini right now? I count two on PSU Well if you really think you have two then so do we. DMac and Legion. Two on Penn Sttae. Good one. guess you don't follow big ten basketball much. Jamelle Cornley and Geary Claxton will both be drafted. they may not stick, but they'll be drafted. Cornley has a better chance of sticking

i said it, then retracted it. it's a dead issue

star recruits like Eric Gordon? OH SNAP i will. very much. /takes what he can get from crappy DePaul and PSU basketball

Dream teams for me would be: TV: Len and Stone Radio: Hughes and Brenley Santo can hang out, sing the stretch, and have multiple strokes every time something exciting happens

people are lazy. it's not that hard to edit it down to the last quote manually

probably not. oh, and enjoy Illinois football being good now. it won't last long ;)

i don't mean to overstate things, just saying that Penn State is pretty decent this year and losing to them isn't as bad as losing to Michigan or Northwestern might be. have they passed Illinois as a program? no way. but i love how all you illini guys do is bitch and moan about your own program, but god forbid someone says something about it. Ok so which is it, has Penn State passed the Illini's program or not? I have no problem with somebody saying something about the Illini's program, when what is being said is true. But in this case your original comment was ridiculous. Penn State isnt a good team, and either are the Illini. Is this the worse loss the Illini have had? No way we just lost last week to Tenn St., but its definatley not a loss to be proud of right now, and it wont be a loss to be proud of at the end of the year. Penn State will be in the bottom 5 with Illinois, Northwestern, Michigan, and Iowa when the season is done. which is it? I think i clearly retracted my first statement. i'm not going to predict where Penn State will finish in the conference, but even if they finish "bottom five", that could mean seventh, which is higher than most predicted going in. Yes, their SOS is bad, but as they saying goes, you play the teams on your schedule. They won their ACC/Big 10 Shootout game, are undefeated at home, and 2-0 (both on the road) in conference so far. Penn State has a long way to go, but don't hold such a high and mighty attitude about your precious Illini. Yes, your program is better, but it's certainly trending downwards right now. your recruiting power should allow you to rebound quickly, while Penn State has to prove it can be at all consistent (which it has failed to do year to year). Should be interesting ETA: Nice of you to mention PSU's 119 RPI while leaving out the fact that Illinois is 128 (with a SOS of 54) What would be the point of me mentioning Illinois RPI? Ive clearly stated many times throughout this thread that Illinois sucks. My whole point was about you saying losing to Penn State isnt such a bad loss, and may look good at the end of the year, which is false. Losing to a team with an RPI of 119 and a terrible SOS will never be considered a good loss. Not to mention your comment about Penn States program surpassing Illinois which you quickly backpeddeld on when callled out about it. it wasn't backpedaling, it was clarifying. think what you want, but enjoy penn state finishing ahead of you this year in conference

I blame the Moonshine and incest

can we stop pulling out Lofton '03 crap again? The Cubs offense was not statistically better after adding Lofton. It was pretty much a push.

i may watch some of this after Amerian Gladiators :)

how can someone write that article and never once type out "Southern Methodist University'"? What if a casual fan thinks this is Southern Miss? Dumb Isn't Southern Miss USM? maybe. it's just a pet peeve when writers use the acronym seven times in an article and never spell it out. it's lazy
