I know why he’s doing it, but the whole Underwood pre-Duke presser is about the illnesses again. Archived Message

I do have to wonder if this being all that gets talked about in every media session can start to have a trickle down effect to the players too, kind of just becoming resigned to this not being our year versus having that backs against the wall mentality.

Illinois @ Wisconsin game thread - illini21 February 18, 2025, 17:21:43
I was at the game and still recovering. I'd like to make a shout out to the Krush that traveled - ibdoc February 20, 2025, 17:07:00
I know why he’s doing it, but the whole Underwood pre-Duke presser is about the illnesses again. - OB25 February 20, 2025, 16:51:52
I listened to it last night, and didn't actually find the illness stuff to be that prevalant - Blazer February 21, 2025, 13:01:15
"I don't want to make excuses" - WhitmansFolly February 20, 2025, 18:00:30
No shit. his adversity is like 1/10 of the women’s* - John Coctostan February 20, 2025, 18:30:04
I mean, the women are all seniors and 4 of the starters have played together for 3 years - JacobRDaugherty February 21, 2025, 12:57:39
I doubt players watch the presser * - jdl February 20, 2025, 17:02:33
I disagree. - voiceofreason February 21, 2025, 12:59:59
Valid * - jdl February 21, 2025, 13:21:43
Yeah I think it’s politicking a bit for the committee. Pre-excusing every loss - snipes824 February 20, 2025, 17:01:44
Though now that the back half has changed topics, Underwood is pissed at the refs for KJ - OB25 February 20, 2025, 17:00:42
Loser shit. Come on* - John Coctostan February 20, 2025, 18:29:33
Meh, KJ’s confidence is most likely pretty low. Sticking up for his guy.* - voiceofreason February 20, 2025, 18:42:52
And as noted by my %’s from the other day, I don’t think he’s wrong. - OB25 February 20, 2025, 18:46:33
I know it's technically a game thread but you still don't have to be this guy.* - Chuck Woodaby February 20, 2025, 18:38:04
Neither does Underwood* - John Coctostan February 20, 2025, 19:17:01
The ref stuff is obnoxious - Blazer February 20, 2025, 17:11:34
Also said his injury in January was caused by a hack on the wrist that wasn’t called* - OB25 February 20, 2025, 17:11:22
He has admitted to being a bad loser * - biclops February 20, 2025, 17:25:39
ordered the upside down banner TSJ tShirt !* - rozoben February 19, 2025, 17:56:47
Ant Wright breakdown of KJ's turnovers - Blazer February 19, 2025, 15:24:52
The really discouraging part of that is the wide open shooters on some of those plays. - larue33 February 19, 2025, 16:05:32
Yeah, in the moment, I wondered if Tomi was supposed to pop - Blazer February 19, 2025, 16:12:22
Honest question: why did we start Jake Davis if he was already sick pregame? - Blazer February 19, 2025, 13:22:24
Not of it makes much sense - jdl February 19, 2025, 17:39:46
And none of these guys are contagious? But we didn’t shake hands as a precaution* - CWR10 February 19, 2025, 20:46:54
He’s speaking to the committee trying to stay out of the 8-9 game. He seems much more - voiceofreason February 19, 2025, 19:28:41
Maybe he was hoping to pass it on to Wisconsin by half time.* - Chuck Woodaby February 19, 2025, 13:39:12
I sensed that maybe he knew he had a short window so wanted to get his minutes in while he could - OB25 February 19, 2025, 13:37:31
I remember that being weird back when Covid precautions were still in place - RVA February 19, 2025, 14:09:52
Yeah. I mean Brad's comments about not shaking hands are all good and well - Blazer February 19, 2025, 13:50:15
Was just thinking back to the high point of the season which to me was after the PSU game on 1/8 - OB25 February 19, 2025, 13:15:51
It all started breaking at MSU. Never really recovered. * - uofi1998 February 19, 2025, 13:19:16
Yeah that MSU road game just completely ruined this team moving forward. - illinilosch February 19, 2025, 13:27:27
Holy crap … cheapest tickets $400 Saturday! - ab75 February 19, 2025, 13:13:04
They weren't nearly as steep a couple of weeks ago. - Chicago1995 February 19, 2025, 16:22:11
Yep … I did also and waited because they always seem to get cheaper - ab75 February 19, 2025, 17:38:55
We are 111th in defense in our last 10 per Torvik. * - illini February 19, 2025, 12:53:37
This is a pretty good synopsis of the stagnation of our offense - Jersey February 19, 2025, 10:33:53
This is what makes the Tre situation so baffling - jdl February 19, 2025, 17:32:36
Four key words in there - "Illinois needs to adjust" - WhitmansFolly February 19, 2025, 14:20:17
Great stuff. I refuse to believe that Underwood doesn’t know this stuff. - voiceofreason February 19, 2025, 13:43:13
That's great analysis, and more evidence that our offense is not generating quality shots* - Blazer February 19, 2025, 12:32:00
it's pretty much get healthy, shoot the ball better, and get hot - RSMBob February 19, 2025, 11:57:36
That's a lot of words for "You should move ball and bodies like Wisconsin, but you don't" - LWillhite February 19, 2025, 11:52:59
I get so tired of hearing/reading that we’ll figure it out by March, or what a - jjlocke923 February 19, 2025, 11:24:40
Just blind optimism. Like a calendar page is gonna make the difference. Eh. - osklister February 19, 2025, 11:51:26
To be fair, Underwood teams generally improve / get better into late February / March. - DocWalk20 February 19, 2025, 13:05:18
Someone send that to the staff...stat* - OWWDig February 19, 2025, 11:01:31
hell, just send it to the Underwoods - IlliniSax05 February 19, 2025, 11:15:43
Sounds like the makings for a cell phone commercial. "Life with the Underwoods." - osklister February 19, 2025, 11:59:03
hot cousin Sara Jean needs bandwidth for her Only Fans - IlliniSax05 February 19, 2025, 12:03:34
Yeah, that sums it up pretty well - reggiedunlop February 19, 2025, 10:47:39
Random musings - snipes824 February 19, 2025, 9:25:19
The first point says it all … when KJ played like a star we were very good - ab75 February 19, 2025, 11:45:48
He also looks a lot better with a healthy Tomi and Morez. No Morez and a one legged Tomi? - Chuck Woodaby February 19, 2025, 11:48:01
Largely agree.. i think brad's job at this point is mostly roster management - ijustkrushalot February 19, 2025, 11:23:33
It would also be nice to have a bigger guard/wing that is a defensive stopper* - reggiedunlop February 19, 2025, 10:48:44
I think that’s an overly harsh assessment of KJ, saying he’s been borderline not good for a while - OB25 February 19, 2025, 10:20:09
I think you’re right. He was very good recently in some games - snipes824 February 19, 2025, 11:02:24
Career/Season high points against UCLA and Minnesota (24) and a great first half against MSU (13) - Chuck Woodaby February 19, 2025, 10:27:50
He can score...but the TOs are killers.* - OWWDig February 19, 2025, 10:53:30
I feel like his turnovers are pretty evenly distributed into 3 categories - OB25 February 19, 2025, 11:08:36
really? Maybe I'm just harsh, but i'd put those more like 50/30/20 - John Coctostan February 19, 2025, 11:11:53
Lately yes.. to the point you wonder if hes got injury issues still, or a prion disease - ijustkrushalot February 19, 2025, 11:13:19
It's possible, but he gets the ball poked away a lot from behind and I'm not sure they're hacks* - OWWDig February 19, 2025, 11:10:54
I don't really understand today's market, but Riley should stay one more year - Stu February 19, 2025, 9:53:49
Are we going to go with White transfers again? - Tooldresser February 19, 2025, 9:50:07
Tre would be his 4th transfer in 4 years. Just can't see that happening. - OWWDig February 19, 2025, 10:01:48
I think a guy who has done 3 in3 is very likely to go for #4. * - larue33 February 19, 2025, 10:26:27
Can't argue with that, I suppose. Given his performance though...gotta be a shrinking market* - OWWDig February 19, 2025, 10:52:20
So the thing with Morez is that he plays so damn hard. - EffinIllini February 19, 2025, 10:21:43
He seems to have a ton of leadership qualities too - jdl February 19, 2025, 17:35:25
It's certainly possible...but also, some guys are just wired that way. Just too much smoke - OWWDig February 19, 2025, 10:51:39
Is there really "too much smoke"? - bjl63 February 19, 2025, 11:01:51
Could be...but it's been out there for a while. It's only getting bigger now bc of the - OWWDig February 19, 2025, 11:07:40
Any chance we agreed to pay TA $700K to take the year off as long as he promised not to take those - Chuck Woodaby February 19, 2025, 10:54:15
there's always a chance :) but it's not like we could control it either.* - OWWDig February 19, 2025, 11:02:53
I definitely want to keep Davis. He can be a really nice piece off the bench going forward * - illini21 February 19, 2025, 10:00:43
He was great. Not so much since he hurt his arm, though* - bjl63 February 19, 2025, 9:35:22
He was. But I don’t know what is arm and what is being scouted and not being able to adjust* - snipes824 February 19, 2025, 9:53:55
There is some wild shit in this game thread. Basking in the familiar feeling of being off the rails* - OrangeSox February 19, 2025, 8:56:48
I can't believe we have to play Duke this week. Fuck me.* - Warrin'_Illini February 19, 2025, 8:50:37
I think it’s great. Sucks that we ruined what should be a game we’d really look forward to, but… - OB25 February 19, 2025, 9:21:32
The way sicknesses have torn through this team has been crazy - Jackie February 19, 2025, 8:42:31
Ivisic coming to the U.S. from eastern Europe and getting every plaque imaginable in two months - illini February 19, 2025, 9:02:29
Should be about to turn his immune system into iron-like steel by now* - illinilosch February 19, 2025, 9:25:50
Was Tre hurt or just “benched” - Mrap24 February 19, 2025, 8:36:16
He was sick first. Not sure what happened next. * - illini February 19, 2025, 9:01:29
Sick I think. Roughy mentioned a while back that both DGL and Tre looked like they lost 10lbs. - tvillini February 19, 2025, 8:57:21
does it matter? - Poldark February 19, 2025, 8:41:44
time to get separate water bottles* - lcubed February 19, 2025, 8:15:30
Do these guys wash their hands? LOL!* - Tooldresser February 19, 2025, 9:51:18
Remember when we were up 16 on MSU? - uofi1998 February 19, 2025, 7:25:57
68% TO rate for KJ. that seems impossible* - John Coctostan February 19, 2025, 7:12:51
he’s a mess.* - Ari Gold February 19, 2025, 7:27:22
In any other generation the talk of him being a lottery pick would seem laughable. - illinilosch February 19, 2025, 8:02:21
NET 20, Kenpom 21. Looks like the Rutgers loss fell to Q2* - biclops February 19, 2025, 7:04:17
so is central Illinois reeling under some virus just like the south. - rozoben February 18, 2025, 23:25:25
It hammered my household last week. We’re just now getting back to normal* - CWR10 February 19, 2025, 8:15:44
pretty sure 5 out of 6 in our household has had influenza a over the past 2 weeks - lcubed February 19, 2025, 8:15:02
Did any of you get flu shots? I got mine and have been fine - Jackie February 19, 2025, 8:40:51
I got the shot but still got sick this week. 4 weeks ago Mr Roz was sick but I never got it - rozoben February 19, 2025, 14:37:03
For those with influenza a is it turning into an ear infection? - GhostofPokeyStixPast February 19, 2025, 9:50:15
I’ve heard that from a couple of people* - illini21 February 19, 2025, 9:59:42
Nope and I usually get one every year. Whoops* - illini21 February 19, 2025, 9:20:10
My dad got the flu shot but had a bad case of the flu. - ghost_of_clt February 19, 2025, 8:46:57
yep, we all got them. not sure why it hit some harder than others* - lcubed February 19, 2025, 8:44:58
No post-game handshake due to illness. Davis left vomiting. Ivisic didn't travel with the team. - Tuscy February 19, 2025, 6:40:50
I’ve been down with the flu since Sunday. It’s brutal* - illini21 February 19, 2025, 6:24:58
i've been down with O.P.P. since 1991* - ArtVandelay February 19, 2025, 7:01:17
Hurricane had the flu last week * - Jackie February 19, 2025, 6:26:27
Remember when Boswell was burning sage around the court pregame of the USC game? - OB25 February 18, 2025, 22:48:37
Boz needs to do a reverse burn sage ritual going in the opposite direction * - rozoben February 18, 2025, 22:55:18
It could only help at this point* - Jackie February 19, 2025, 8:38:53
We had one guy with a positive +/- tonight - GMAW February 18, 2025, 22:43:10
Q: In what world should Boswell be playing more than Lawhorn? - Dark Knight February 18, 2025, 22:41:21
Lol Underwood gets so annoyed at every Buchson question.* - OB25 February 18, 2025, 22:39:46
Also spent a couple minutes pleading with all Illini fans to buy TSJ’s shirt for charity* - OB25 February 18, 2025, 22:43:15
I just wish this team tried to build on what we had. Brought Coleman, Goode, Ty, Amani, Sincere - JacobRDaugherty February 18, 2025, 22:06:44
There’s no way they could have done anything close to that. - OB25 February 18, 2025, 22:11:02
Agreed, but I think you could have prioritized Goode - Blazer February 18, 2025, 22:13:29
I just don’t think there’s any path to a great season if Ty and Luke are guaranteed starters - OB25 February 18, 2025, 22:20:00
How is it different than Tre and Ben being starters for 2/3 of the year? - Blazer February 18, 2025, 23:11:40
The legends of Luke and Ty.* - Chuck Woodaby February 18, 2025, 23:53:02
Probably. But if Ben shot 40% from three this year like Luke, we probably win 3-4 more games - Blazer February 19, 2025, 12:27:56
Agree, that would be a pretty low ceiling team - jdl February 18, 2025, 22:28:37
I love Ty but it's not ideal when you have a guard who can't shoot and teams don't guard him. - Chuck Woodaby February 18, 2025, 22:27:26
I wouldn’t take him over either guy - GMAW February 18, 2025, 22:38:56
Yeah that’s true. When you’re frustrated it’s easy to forget how bad a complete zero shooter was* - snipes824 February 18, 2025, 23:00:47
Agreed, not sure how Kylan in his current form satisfies that need.* - Chuck Woodaby February 18, 2025, 22:43:06
But it made perfect sense in theory when he was a high volume 39% 3PT shooter for 2 years* - OB25 February 18, 2025, 22:44:11
1 month ago after the IU game Brad was a genius.* - Chuck Woodaby February 18, 2025, 22:45:31
This team needs someone to attack the basket* - JacobRDaugherty February 18, 2025, 22:42:38
yep. goode over ben and ty over white and this is a better team. I think there's a lesson there - snipes824 February 18, 2025, 22:17:34
Goode tripled his money and got to go home to IU. Prioritize better takes* - Chuck Woodaby February 18, 2025, 22:16:17
Indeed. But we paid Ben more than Goode is getting at IU - Blazer February 18, 2025, 22:17:52
We weren't going to pay Coleman what he wanted - jdl February 18, 2025, 22:10:05
Should have brought TJ and Domask back too* - Chuck Woodaby February 18, 2025, 22:08:21
Once Chester left, Harris and Hansberry were, too. And they're not very good, either. - Kajagoogoo February 18, 2025, 22:08:01
Hansberry is pretty solid. And maybe Chester wasn't the guy to push out * - larue33 February 18, 2025, 22:11:53
Hansberry is really solid as a True Sophomore. He would play here.* - JacobRDaugherty February 18, 2025, 22:46:36
This team being sick is turning into Duhon’s rib* - HeatMizer February 18, 2025, 22:02:25
Except there’s actually been a postivie mono test and active vomiting. - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 22:04:49
DGL allegedly lost 10 pounds* - OB25 February 18, 2025, 22:05:43
That Duke team went to the final four * - ijustkrushalot February 18, 2025, 22:03:34
Duke has so much size. Saturday is gonna be a mess * - illini February 18, 2025, 21:54:51
Keaton Kutcher and AJ Redd should get 20 minutes each. - ijustkrushalot February 18, 2025, 22:00:04
duke team total will be?* - Ari Gold February 18, 2025, 21:56:35
Definitely going to test your refractory period* - Herman Blume February 18, 2025, 22:02:04
However many minutes you’re rock hard thinking about it - Blazer February 18, 2025, 22:01:28
1 sentence too much* - OWWDig February 18, 2025, 21:56:32
so who will even be back next year to build around? - Ari Gold February 18, 2025, 21:54:27
At this point, who knows? And this season might kill recruiting momentum, too. - Kajagoogoo February 18, 2025, 21:56:12
Yes, recruits hate putting guys in the league and a strong NIL game* - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:57:59
We'll see. Even if Brad lands 18-yo studs again, what's he gonna do with them? - Kajagoogoo February 18, 2025, 22:02:18
Win 3 B1G titles and go to the Elite 8?* - Vandy February 19, 2025, 0:55:15
With a team like this? Not happening. Maybe if he's willing to "get old" again and rebuild this team - Kajagoogoo February 19, 2025, 9:25:39
I dunno. Win more games? - Blazer February 18, 2025, 22:06:54
I’m sitting on this wall with you. He’s been bad this year, but holy shit look at what he’s - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 22:23:34
Hopefully give them an offense to run. * - larue33 February 18, 2025, 22:06:06
Guys, we are not even a year removed from being a top 10 team and going to the Elite 8* - OB25 February 18, 2025, 22:04:54
This. We’ve collectively lost our minds* - Blazer February 18, 2025, 22:07:42
Consider the source. I'm sure Loyalty is loaded with morons calling for Underwood's firing.* - Illiniphil February 19, 2025, 7:34:20
LMAO! Okay, empty troll. - Kajagoogoo February 19, 2025, 9:23:33
Look at how many people are agreeing with your knee jerk around here. - Illiniphil February 19, 2025, 11:27:56
Jake, Dra, Tre, Tomi, KB….maybe Will* - OWWDig February 18, 2025, 21:56:05
Tre and Dra? Doubt it. Will's gone, too. - Kajagoogoo February 18, 2025, 21:57:14
Tre? 4th school in 4 years? Dra? Still friends with Davis and may feel good here - OWWDig February 19, 2025, 9:44:54
that’s pretty bleak and certainly won’t help the nonexistent culture.* - Ari Gold February 18, 2025, 21:59:34
If you can get Tomi, Morez, Davis, and one of Boswell or DGL back… - OB25 February 18, 2025, 22:04:11
morez would be the key there.* - Ari Gold February 18, 2025, 22:06:34
Well, Brad (probably). - osklister February 18, 2025, 21:55:06
Huge props to Tomi, he is a warrior. - OB25 February 18, 2025, 21:47:13
oooo - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:57:00
Speaking of Jake - jdl February 18, 2025, 21:49:35
Brad said he was "on the toilet" during half. - WhitmansFolly February 18, 2025, 22:04:41
Can’t wait to see how many more guys get sick before the Duke game. - OB25 February 18, 2025, 21:52:18
Amazing how illness keeps ravaging this team. Haven’t seen anything like it - bjl63 February 18, 2025, 21:54:31
Someone said he got sick mid-game. Nit sure if that was a serious comment or not.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 21:50:52
He didn’t appear to be on the bench in the second half - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:50:22
Somebody mentioned he was maybe ill too - puking during the game?* - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 21:50:21
i noticed he was on the bench next to Tomi at times during warmups* - ijustkrushalot February 18, 2025, 21:54:33
correct. the radio guys reported that at halftime.* - Ari Gold February 18, 2025, 21:51:56
Ah thanks, missed that * - jdl February 18, 2025, 21:51:27
Dra would be league scoring champ in the Mac. * - illini February 18, 2025, 21:49:27
Santa Clara seems like a good destination.* - Chuck Woodaby February 18, 2025, 21:53:45
Too soon.* - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 21:58:52
Also, RIP Wisconsin streak* - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:47:04
I choose to celebrate that it happened.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 21:49:31
Hopefully not the start of another streak - jdl February 18, 2025, 21:50:33
The offense wasn’t great, but it was passable - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:46:29

I’ve been on record since last year that I hate our scheme - Blazer February 18, 2025, 22:03:53

N-I-T!* - bjl63 February 18, 2025, 21:41:04
The bubble is terrible and we have 7 Q1 wins. Not happening.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 21:42:18
Lose to Iowa and we finish on a 6 game losing streak, 9-11 in league - bjl63 February 18, 2025, 21:43:47
Even if we lose out? Because I wouldn’t put it past this group* - Ron McDon February 18, 2025, 21:43:15
No team with 7 Q1 wins has ever missed. Only two with 6 have, and one of those was sub .500 - Vandy February 19, 2025, 0:56:57
and kj has taken only 3 shots?!* - Ari Gold February 18, 2025, 21:40:58
hard to get many shots when you turn it over every time you touch it* - Orangeillini February 18, 2025, 21:41:30

That’s the unreal part* - OWWDig February 18, 2025, 21:43:26
Wisconsin moves with purpose on offense. It's really fun to watch. - WhitmansFolly February 18, 2025, 21:40:55
Good that they no longer play at a snails pace, too * - jdl February 18, 2025, 21:42:30
Ye olde "inside out" offense (or whatever they called it). - osklister February 18, 2025, 21:46:01
boswell and kj with 10 combined tos.* - Ari Gold February 18, 2025, 21:37:29
We have no identity. Not a single person on this floor knows what they should do - John Coctostan February 18, 2025, 21:37:28
This is where I’m at. The roster management has been chaos - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:42:06
It has been odd watching Brad not have a feel for a team this late in the year.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 21:45:50
That was why we hired him IIRC. Team at OSU got better as the year went on. - osklister February 18, 2025, 21:50:58
And until this season, that’s mostly been the case at Illinois. - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 21:57:12
Our fanbase is legit insane - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:59:43
Pretty much sums it up.* - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 22:01:43
He ruined Tre White* - GMAW February 18, 2025, 21:43:30
And the DGL stuff is such a bad look - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:48:21
2nd time in 3 seasons it's turned into a mess - UIHuskie February 18, 2025, 21:37:27
We might be watching different games. This team played really hard tonight* - OB25 February 18, 2025, 21:39:40
Agreed* - OWWDig February 18, 2025, 21:54:34
we’ll get that fixed.* - Ari Gold February 18, 2025, 21:38:12
Morez played 13 minutes and had 4 rebounds in the game in Champaign - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:37:23
That play by Boswell is a great microcosm for this team. - WhitmansFolly February 18, 2025, 21:37:01
it just demonstrated his lack of confidence* - Orangeillini February 18, 2025, 21:38:11
He really has turned into Chester Frazier* - HeatMizer February 18, 2025, 21:41:50
At least Chester always had his defense. Somehow that’s fallen off for Boswell too.* - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 21:47:04
That was amazing. He’s passed up a half dozen wide open threes, then that* - GMAW February 18, 2025, 21:37:39
passed up that layup earlier too. He's broken.* - Chuck Woodaby February 18, 2025, 21:42:45
I think it’s the roster. That doesn’t mean the coaching is perfect, but I think it’s the roster* - snipes824 February 18, 2025, 21:36:59
It’s massive fail of evaluation - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:38:19
Agree* - snipes824 February 18, 2025, 21:42:10
We looked perfectly fine for two months. They’ve all gotten worse both individually but - John Coctostan February 18, 2025, 21:39:27
I love Brad but DGL playing like this is a real bad look for him. - OB25 February 18, 2025, 21:36:46

Hard to cut into a lead when you just keep giving away possessions* - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 21:32:30
Do we just suck at dribbling?* - WhitmansFolly February 18, 2025, 21:32:00
Yes* - OWWDig February 18, 2025, 21:34:44
Also suck at not losing. - osklister February 18, 2025, 21:53:07
I hope we come ready to play against Iowa* - Ron McDon February 18, 2025, 21:31:58

I just couldn’t imagine watching this KJ performance and taking him in the lottery - John Coctostan February 18, 2025, 21:28:25
I just don't get the talk about him going Top 5. - illinilosch February 18, 2025, 21:56:45
Holy fuck. Just killing us* - John Coctostan February 18, 2025, 21:32:29
Had this thought many times in the past few weeks* - Orangeillini February 18, 2025, 21:30:03
I can’t believe people still talk about him being a lottery pick* - Stu February 18, 2025, 21:29:38
I’d take Will over him* - OWWDig February 18, 2025, 21:29:08
I think it might be a distinct possibility at this point.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 21:33:22
Our guys constantly get the ball directly under the basket and end up doing nothing - IlliniSax05 February 18, 2025, 21:28:10
Fuck off Ben* - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:26:51
6’9” and 7’1” with touches within 3 feet of the basket and don’t even get a shot off* - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 21:27:44

I can’t believe Brad Underwood isn’t stopping Tonje* - GMAW February 18, 2025, 21:23:27
keep excusing the losses.* - Ari Gold February 18, 2025, 21:26:03
So in all seriousness, why do you hate Underwood so much?* - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:28:14
he’s a below average game coach and his son has no business on this staff.* - Ari Gold February 18, 2025, 21:32:32
The Tyler stuff is overblown - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:53:55
It doesn’t matter who the coach is. He’s a troll* - GMAW February 18, 2025, 21:30:42
I’m not excusing anything. But a clown troll needs to be called a clown troll* - GMAW February 18, 2025, 21:27:44
Tonje is ridiculous (autofill)* - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:23:13
He is, but what is KB doing there? He goes to contest then doesn’t. Maybe just - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 21:24:18

I think it does - ijustkrushalot February 18, 2025, 21:16:24
He’s already slow footed when healthy - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:15:36
On that one he tried to help Riley since he got sideways on his man - illini February 18, 2025, 21:16:30
Our whole defensive philosophy has been not getting in rotation - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:18:09

40% vs 38%. It’s at the rim and rebounding that’s killing us* - Blazer February 18, 2025, 21:14:53

Same. Lucky to only be down 6. * - harb February 18, 2025, 20:37:52

I see what you did there. Agreed on the rebounding, but it’s not surprising considering - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:38:19
Yep* - Blazer February 18, 2025, 20:38:54
Pretty darn impressive all things considered. Wisconsin played well too.* - OB25 February 18, 2025, 20:35:43
Fortunately we’re a second half team!* - biclops February 18, 2025, 20:35:17
LOL. - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 20:37:21
Keep kj on the bench. As much tomi as he can handle. Then kb, Riley, Tre and hummer - John Coctostan February 18, 2025, 20:34:52
Good things happen with DGL on the floor* - GMAW February 18, 2025, 20:34:44
Thank goodness for his hustle and heart* - OWWDig February 18, 2025, 20:41:44
Fairly miraculous to only be down 6 at half* - Ron McDon February 18, 2025, 20:34:35
We played well on offense. MUCH better than Saturday. - GMAW February 18, 2025, 20:35:25
I’ll take it. Nice job by Tre at the end there.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:34:28
Could be worse. Good end to the half* - Blazer February 18, 2025, 20:34:26
I still want more Tre White. I know he hasn’t scored much, but he’s done some good things* - GMAW February 18, 2025, 20:31:25
Agreed. At least he and Dra have gotten some tick. Which is better than the last several games* - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 20:33:50
Same.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:32:34
5 turnovers, all by one person, at least speaks well for the other guys* - Potomac February 18, 2025, 20:31:13
We have six threes. One off the bounce (Kylan under a screen), 5 set off passes - Blazer February 18, 2025, 20:30:56
We've been better with KJ on the bench* - WhitmansFolly February 18, 2025, 20:30:21
well he single-handedly gave away 5 possessions so* - biclops February 18, 2025, 20:32:31
Not the first time this year. Our ceiling isn’t as high without him, but the floor seems to be.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:31:44
Noticeably* - CWR10 February 18, 2025, 20:30:41
If we had played like this on Saturday, we win by 10 - GMAW February 18, 2025, 20:30:10
Kills me to say this about Wisconsin but they’re just too good. - OB25 February 18, 2025, 20:29:39
Seriously. And frankly how we played a lot early when we were hitting shots and our best - John Coctostan February 18, 2025, 20:31:46
Yeah I can’t help but think they’re what Brad thought he built this year* - snipes824 February 18, 2025, 20:31:08
That’s a settle 3 jack from KB* - HeatMizer February 18, 2025, 20:27:31
9 points in 3 possessions, then we take a dumb off the bounce step back 3. - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:27:21
Grind to half. Get it to 7 or less. * - illini February 18, 2025, 20:24:56
Man, we could use a Ben heater.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:24:25
Or a Riley heater - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 20:26:00
How about a couple of Boswell Bricks? * - illinijohn February 18, 2025, 20:27:49
Of course Ben hits one in a game that we ain’t winning* - HeatMizer February 18, 2025, 20:24:12
Ok now it’s kinda bullshit* - OB25 February 18, 2025, 20:24:01
KJ just stood and watched while his man cut to the basket. Fucking unacceptable. Done with him - John Coctostan February 18, 2025, 20:23:50

Didn’t have possession* - GMAW February 18, 2025, 20:23:49
can’t happen, KJ. Just lazy* - GMAW February 18, 2025, 20:23:32
This would be a good game for Brad to grow a pair and sit KJ to make a point.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:23:31
Nice take, Kylan.* - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 20:21:15
I’m so sick of the shot quality stuff. Good players hit fucking shots! Little pop shots, fade aways - snipes824 February 18, 2025, 20:17:31
That tonje shot was worse than ANY we took vs msu. Draino* - John Coctostan February 18, 2025, 20:22:28
That Klesmit shot is their only step back - Blazer February 18, 2025, 20:21:13
And then Tonje hits that. I give up* - Blazer February 18, 2025, 20:22:24
We’ve taken at least 5 shots that we actively try to encourage on D. And off balance angle bullshit, - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:20:05
Amen brother. Amen - John Coctostan February 18, 2025, 20:18:36
I hate that they’re this good. But we look close to giving up all of a sudden. - OB25 February 18, 2025, 20:17:30
Brad literally says they don’t run plays, they just hunt matchups. - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 20:19:36
We're not even getting beat inside after the first stretch, just getting outplayed* - reggiedunlop February 18, 2025, 20:16:32
We’re 6-18. They’re 11-21. That’s it* - GMAW February 18, 2025, 20:16:12
Carter Gilmore is one of the more punchable B1G players I can recall in a while* - Blazer February 18, 2025, 20:15:23
Ooo - Herman Blume February 18, 2025, 20:17:02
Our shot selection is fucking awful.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:15:16
Comically bad* - OWWDig February 18, 2025, 20:16:38
And theirs is great - Blazer February 18, 2025, 20:16:00
I’d push back on that a bit. I think it’s just that they guys who can make them. - OB25 February 18, 2025, 20:19:12
We aren't giving them much resistance. Ball screen D is still awful* - WhitmansFolly February 18, 2025, 20:16:56

Could not afford to have this kind of KJ performance tonight* - OB25 February 18, 2025, 20:14:40
I just don’t get the draft lottery hype. He’s not quick and he’s loose with the ball - GMAW February 18, 2025, 20:17:09
He hasn't been the same since his bizarro forearm injury - OrangeSox February 18, 2025, 20:20:33
Yeah the lack of quickness is mitigated by his craftiness. But that itself is then - John Coctostan February 18, 2025, 20:19:46
Figured I would get shouted down from the rooftops for saying this, so I didn’t. - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:18:30
He also has no right hand - IlliniSax05 February 18, 2025, 20:20:13
He's right handed.* - Chuck Woodaby February 18, 2025, 20:22:15
It’s even worse then* - Herman Blume February 18, 2025, 20:32:35
That’s a big problem then* - GMAW February 18, 2025, 20:32:27
Hilarious!* - Herman Blume February 18, 2025, 20:35:54
Need a good KJ game and a Riley heater. So far not getting either.* - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 20:16:48
It’s who he is at this point.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:16:11
His carelessness with the ball is unbelievable. Have to wonder if it hurts the stock a bit* - John Coctostan February 18, 2025, 20:14:40
Is that 4 TOs for Jakucionis now?* - biclops February 18, 2025, 20:14:04
Yes* - OWWDig February 18, 2025, 20:14:43
Our shots aren’t just missing. They’re bricking* - snipes824 February 18, 2025, 20:13:16
And they’ve had 4 or 5 roll in that could have rolled out. #notgoodbob* - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 20:15:39
KJ passed up a shot at the rim to pass out there. Sigh.* - voiceofreason February 18, 2025, 20:14:23
We have to run more sets* - reggiedunlop February 18, 2025, 20:12:48
These shots are not the answer, guys.* - OB25 February 18, 2025, 20:12:41

Meh. Could have easily gotten calls on a couple of drives that we didn’t* - DocWalk20 February 18, 2025, 20:10:36
