Illini BB

[TL1961]

Sad thing is when the game got close as the end, I was holding onto our recently adopted cat Stella in the last minute. Good luck cat! Dogs were jealous though.

Serious question, is Terrence Shannon on a Glen Rice-esque run? Rice still holds the record for most points scored in a tournament with 184pts. He just needs 100 over the next 3 games lol.

Also, Glen Rice probably has the most punchable face ever. I still can’t get over 1989 and couldn’t imagine actually being at that game @TL1961

I still want to kill when I hear Hail to the Victors.

And for all of our law enforcement who may be monitoring this forum, I am only kidding when I say I want to kill.

All I know is this Illini victory has me still celebrating at this time of night/morning even though I’m supposed to be “working remotely“ tomorrow.

Who doesn’t love “working remotely“?

Terrence Shannon Jr’s alleged sexual battery charge and legal case, explained

The Illini star was arrested last year, but is still leading his team into March Madness.

Seems every major publication is now discussing this. A lot of articles came out yesterday. I googled “Illinois Men’s Basketball” and the first 15 results were about the rape allegations.

True but one of their best players made one of the stupidest retaliations ever in the 3rd minute of the game. I’ll actually be at Jordan Hare Stadium next week for their A Game(spring scrimmage), maybe I’ll run into Bruce Pearl again.

On another note, I’m watching the new Roadhouse getting hammered and the main villain rode my school bus 20+ years ago. lol guess he has done well.

I though Conner McGregor was the bad guy?

He’s just the henchman.

So Illinois missed a lot of free throws, but then Iowa St evened it up by missing a lot of layups.

I really don’t see this team miss that many open looks from deep though. This game should have never been close. They let ISU hang around.

Trying to get in his head. **** ‘em.

I saw a review of the All American teams that mentioned it. **** ‘em.

Braden Smith has the easiest job in college BBall. Just throw it into Edey and he gets easy assists.
Purdue is on a redemption tour right now. Been a few years since the Big 10 hasn’t looked like trash in the postseason.

If Zach Edey doesn’t make it in the NBA, he has a future as a villain in a James Bond movie.

He could throw a shoe at Bond.

Allow 54 points and go home.

The same Houston team that scored 40 in their conference tournament a week ago

Connecticut will try to do what nobody has done in March Madness: Stop Illinois star Terrence Shannon

Terrence Shannon of Illinois is having a historic NCAA men's tournament. But Connecticut is ready for challenge of stopping the elite scorer.

OK, Illini.

Let’s do this!

Scheyer was a total ****** in the post game presser. Complained about how tough his team has had it, lol. Bro the opposing team’s best player left the game 6 minutes in.
