Hoping for a nice easy stress free win from start to finish but the Cats will probably keep it annoyingly close for a while.

We’re just buttfucking them with no lube right now

9/16 from three and a 33-11 lead is a promising start lol.

GOT DAM THIS IS FUN TO WATCH....thank you ILLINI
-
I'm going to miss him
-
HOLY FUCK HAHAHAHAHA
-
thats a helluva way to get the 11th to go down
-
Wagler is the best freshman in Illinois history. He should be favored for NPOTY currently. Dude is a stud…
-
That was fuckin great
-
Beating their ass so bad they put Kendall Gill's kid in the game
-
Only complaint about this is hearing a hundred commercials for dipshit sports talk programs. Otherwise this is beautiful.
And we just got nuggets on top of being up 38.
-
Brad, bench the starters. The Page kid is trying to thug it up.
-
100%. I don't understand why Wagler is still on the floor. It's 75-30. You could play Jakstys at point and we still win by 20+.
-
That was fucking glorious. That was 2004/05 levels of fucking awesome. Yeah, I said it.
-
50 to 23 on the boards.
-
We had more rebounds than they had points lol
-
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’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.
