Fortunately for us Crean has been working hard for months now and we have a recruiting class coming in next season that is Top 10 at worst, maybe even Top 5. If he can get those kids to play as hard as the current group then next season will be a bit more fun to watch.
Players too. There weren't a log of hugs and butt pats on the court last year. Though there wasn't really a time winding down, game over moment. Our gritty, scrappy play warms even the coldest of hearts. lolol
I'm glad we were able to make a run in the 2nd half, it would have been very painful to just roll over and die against Illinois at home. Especially with a sell out crowd on hand.
Let someone unexpectedly break your nose with their elbow and we'll see how you react. One things for sure you would just stand there. Oh c'mon he embellished the hell out of it, if you can't see that then you are just being a homer.
