While he was definitely off on the win total, I don’t think he was that far off on a lot of things.
"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.

Isn’t that all that matters?!
Because FOX News told me so…

Except for Rodgers I’d say he seemed to be mostly right about the players. Sure didn’t feel like a successful season, so I’m willing to give him some leeway on the record. We didn’t capitalize on a favorable schedule and a mediocre conference.

I was right on all the players.  Rodgers isn’t good.  Was way overranked in HS.  He’s a 6’4 guy that can’t shoot outside of 10 feet.   Not much value in a player like that.

This year was basically the Lovie bowl season.  The team sucked and fluked a few miracles and an easy schedule. 

Next year will be Underwood’s last at Illinois.  I think he will be fired after losing 20+ games again.

Then hopefully Josh hires a basketball equivalent of Bielema

No, not really. He got the record wrong obviously. And we “easily” made the tournament. But this rarely ever felt like a good team, and I don’t think his predictions were all that far off. As I said, I’d be willing to call it a draw. This team mostly stunk, and didn’t take care of business in a pretty mediocre and gettable Big Ten.

Having said that, if this year is a “down” year, that’s a good low water mark. But didn’t we have the top rated transfer class? Or one of them. Didn’t amount to much. And now we’re rebuilding. Which may just be the era we’re in.

You're welcome to pretend it was a draw, but he was just wrong about this team.  No way around it.

That's not to say I thought this was a great team, but he predicted we'd be terrible and nowhere near the tournament.  He was objectively wrong, but counts on people pretending with him to claim he was right because he's a beta who can't just admit when he's wrong about something.

Believe it or not "terrible" and "great" are not the only options.

They were a talented but nearly unwatchable team that benefited from a weak Big Ten, a weak conference schedule, and did just enough to secure a spot in the tourney in a down year for high majors. Squeaky was wrong on the record, and they weren’t as bad as he said they’d be, but I don’t think he was terribly far off. He just got a little ambitious. I went into the season thinking Final Four/National title were on the table, and had zero expectation we’d win against Arkansas.

Squeaky predicted they'd be so bad that they'd miss the NIT.  Pretty big miss.

Also he cries about a few upsets and comeback wins.   So what if they had a few comeback wins and beat some teams they shouldnt.  They lost some close games too and lost some games they shouldn't have...

Just loser excuses from Squeaky.

Just like “FTs don’t matter,” I never said that.
