After this display as well as the winning streak, the rankings, the #1 offense, and a defense that is drastically improving, I would find it difficult for ANY transfer to not want to come play at ILLINOIS moving forward.

I mean 5 double figure scorers, almost 6 tonight, how many different leading scorers this year already. Everyone gets some!!

Didn’t get to watch this one as I’m at a business engagement in downtown Indy. Can’t wait to watch the replay

The only negative I saw last night was Petrovic. I mean for his age/talent/level of play he has played against in Europe, he just doesn't seem like a fit?

It is no wonder Mirk handles the ball so much right now, when KW needs a blow, Petrovic is NOT the answer. He dribbles way too much, it's like he NEEDS offensive sets to get into and as mentioned numerous times last night, the ILLINI don't always run them.

He just seems lost, seems overwhelmed at times, and quite frankly doesn't look fluid at all.....would not surprise me to see him struggle even more this year with getting PT/trust from staff....next year????

I mean IF and it's a B1G one...we keep Andrej, the twins, and Mirk, add Rodgers back into the mix along with Davis and recruits/transfers next year...does he even play for us?

Idk they’ll either keep him or get rid of him and some other players will leave and other ones will come and we’ll probably be good again

"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

He should be favored for NPOTY currently. Dude is a stud…

He’s a terrific player, and will probably gain some good steam; but he currently isn’t on most top 10 lists and Boozer is about a 60% favorite to win the Wooden Award.
