Anybody who is complaining right now after we won the B1G championship can fuck off actually.

I get concerns and maybe being scared of an early exit from the NCAA tourney, but what Underwood has done this quickly is actually quite remarkable. Just a S16 this year and I’m happy. It’s just one more step of the program building. He’s progressing each year and that can’t be discounted. Even last year was another positive step exiting in the 2nd round. The goal is to get a chance every year to have success in the tourney and he’s doing that.

Quickly?  This is his 5th year and he will stink next year.

Underwood is at best Frank Martin at South Carolina

Awesome, bet he had a blast.

Does he know yet that our coach is an underachiever?

Yeah he reads the board here so he really wasn’t even excited about the game or the championship or meeting the players

Look at Frank’s 10 years at South Carolina.  I doubt many Illini fans would take that. And Underwood obviously hasn’t had even that success in the tourney.

Year three we were a game back of first in B1G. Red hot going into the cancelled tourney. 

We actually won it last year if using normal metrics.

Shared it this year and have tie breaker. 

We add four more top 100 players for next season. Will probably get at least one difference maker in the portal. Kofi probably won’t be back, but you never know.

What a failure.

Oh wait, you’re the guy who said Curbelo would transfer if he didn’t play by the Arizona game.

Facts are that Underwood lost 20+ games a year without Kofi.

This year, the team should probably be better than what it is considering you have Kofi surrounded by a bunch of experienced guards.

Next year will be a completely new team and honestly without Kofi, Underwood has shown himself to be a very mediocre high D1 coach. He was mediocre in his 1 year at Oklahoma State, awful his first 2 years at Illinois, then he got Kofi and things changed. 

In fact, to draw an Illini football parallel, Underwood may end up being similar to Ron Turner. And Kofi= Kittner.  Take away the stud QB or stud Center, and there’s really nothing that has been built

Iowa crumbling at the FT line (10-22) was just plain bizarre.
But nothing is easy this time of year. We deserved the win and the BT title.

Very bizarre, at least they can't say they got homered by the refs... ;D

Are people besides Truth and maybe tempo actually complaining?  God I hope not.

The only thing I’ve complained about all season is the lack of structure and creativity in our half-court offense.
"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.

Other than offense is half of the game, it looks like KenPom has us #20 in offensive efficiency and #29 in defensive efficiency.
Our offensive efficiency could possibly be higher if Trent, for one, didn't have to work as hard as he does on defense.
Still hiding behind innuendo and practicing the art of omission.

Guessing Kofi and having several good shooters makes it look better than it is.

Sounds about right - has anybody called him a fag or implied you like to fuck him yet?

It's not that we have a good offense, it's just that our players score a lot.

Yes, he took over an empty cupboard and immediately refilled it, completely turning our program around in 3 years.
