I wasn’t bitching. I was mocking.
imagine being such a fucking tool that you spend time thinking up nicknames.

Well, that’s quite the backhanded compliment.
Why was it “fortunate “?
did they win in a raffle?

Thanks, Gophers!
BTW, as I type this, Minnesota is again losing a game they led by two before allowing the go ahead three pointer.
Two teams we need to lose, and Pitino and Co can’t close!

I hope the Illini end up playing SDSU in the 2nd round and get some revenge on Brian Dutcher--the architect of the 1989 Michigan offense once Freider left. **** that guy. Maybe Fisher will sit 1st row for it too.

Illinois not ranked again. You would think they would have been ranked after being close from last week,

And his on-court assistants got signed through 2022 and the DIA increased on court Asst Coaching pool money by 25%.

Illinois 30 on KenPom and DePud is 90. Illinois is 36 NET and Purdue 35. That's strange. These formulas, particularly NET, appear to need some tweaks.

That's huge. I feel much better knowing that OA is sticking around.

The AD losing Antigua was one such subject.
Perhaps that was unwarranted given that he just extended OA two years.

I brought it up as a possibility given that OA's contract was over at the end of the year. Discussing things on a message board doesn't mean one's "panties are in a bunch." If it did, how tight must your panties be over me calling our coach Wood?

It’s fair to discuss whether we think the Illini will keep an assistant and it’s fair to speculate on what will happen
But the criticism of Illinois for something that you fear may happen, as though it DID happen, is what I refer to as “getting ones panties in a bunch”
Had Illinois lost OA and you expressed unhappiness with that, it would be understandable.
But bitching about the Illini doing something and calling it “typical”, when they wind up doing the exact opposite is what earns you your reputation.
The “typical” Illini did the right thing.

There is nothing in my post that constitutes "bitching." I said if OA isn't extended, he would get snatched up fast. And Illinois sports have a history of incompetence so there was reason to question what was happening.
Again, nothing wrong with discussing things before they happen. You act like I went off the deep end. The only person who has been going off the deep end is you when I refer to our coach as Wood.

There has been stuff going on behind the scenes that had many concerned. It started with the Walker “promotion”. I don’t believe all the kissy face stuff in the press release.
