10 minute Keaton interview on BTN - Blazer Yesterday, 17:31:02

-12.5* - OB25 Yesterday, 17:15:12
Tidbits from Brad's Wednesday press conference (longish, as usual). - JFG Yesterday, 15:36:00
- The "what would you do differently" answer was a little disconcerting - Blazer Yesterday, 16:39:52
  - Counterpoint: WTF is he gonna say? "Yeah, I'm not sure what Matt was thinking." - tvillini Yesterday, 16:45:29
    - CounterCounter point. It was a dumbass question. - JFG Yesterday, 17:54:59
    - Fair* - Blazer Yesterday, 17:13:42
- On Ty - illini Yesterday, 16:32:48
  - Yeah, I don't see the fit on this team... honestly, it's the same problem as 2024... - uofi1998 Yesterday, 16:47:42
    - His back to basket post up game would be useful to hunt matchups, but I don’t know who you are - voiceofreason Yesterday, 16:58:07
      - Your last point is the key. Everybody on this team can shoot. - JFG Yesterday, 18:04:40
    - he could sub in for Dre if the other 4 on the floor can shoot - assassin Yesterday, 16:51:25
- Re: Keaton... - uofi1998 Yesterday, 15:55:02
undy on the score this morning. i forgot tommy got his tonsils out. that's kind of a bigger deal - Ari Gold Yesterday, 13:01:05
Halfway through Big Ten play...who do you think is going to take the regular season title? - JFG Yesterday, 9:20:10
- Nebraska has by far the easiest schedule* - assassin Yesterday, 13:05:31
  - It kinda feels like we need to beat them, and they need a double trip up on the West Coast. - JFG Yesterday, 14:58:42
    - I think we beat them. This one is circled for sure. Avoid the UW trap* - uofi1998 Yesterday, 15:01:09
- Michigan. They have physical talent above the rest of the league. - uofi1998 Yesterday, 10:53:11
  - For as impressive as they have looked, their run through December was against the dregs - Blazer Yesterday, 15:28:06
    - I mean... I could've just said Illinois to placate the forum... - uofi1998 Yesterday, 15:50:00
      - I don't think it's Illinois necessarily - Blazer Yesterday, 16:36:58
  - I think Lendeborg is overhyped. And their guards are trash. - Ron McDon Yesterday, 14:03:18
    - I mean… they beat otherwise-undefeated Gonzaga by 40. They have wagon potential. - uofi1998 Yesterday, 14:50:33
      - They are very good, one of the best teams in the land. But I don’t know what got into them… - OB25 Yesterday, 15:35:32
        
        Seem like a lot of it was hot 3 point shooting - jdl Yesterday, 16:16:25
        
        I mean... by that rationale... Illinois... - uofi1998 Yesterday, 16:18:02
        
        The example would be Illinois last year - Blazer Yesterday, 16:35:15
        
        For the record I’m not saying we’re better than Michigan in this argument. - OB25 Yesterday, 16:25:27
        
        Nah, we've been shooting them well for a month and a half now - jdl Yesterday, 16:24:39
        
        I must have missed the point* - uofi1998 Yesterday, 16:38:54
        
        I was responding to OB25's post * - jdl Yesterday, 16:46:44
      - It's obviously impressive - Blazer Yesterday, 15:30:18
      - Ok, fine. We are all doomed! Better?* - Ron McDon Yesterday, 15:26:08
      - Looks like #2 now… my bad* - uofi1998 Yesterday, 14:51:04
  - Meh - Nebraska was missing their most important player and were gassed - ATL Yesterday, 10:54:24
    - It gives me no joy to say this about them. - uofi1998 Yesterday, 11:01:51
      - If we go 16-4 and don't get a share I'll tip my cap to the winner. That's also likely a 2 seed - illini Yesterday, 15:03:59
      - I'm just saying I don't think Michigan is heads and houlders above some of the other top - ATL Yesterday, 14:32:13
- I think Nebraska would have been in dominant position had they held on last night - RSMBob Yesterday, 10:51:13
- my guess is 17-3 gets you a tie for the title, 18-2 will win it outright* - bucktownillini Yesterday, 9:27:01
Steinbach has been a beast on the boards in my limited viewing of them.* - voiceofreason Yesterday, 8:42:30
