I've been watching some CBB this season. Anyone else think there haven't been many 3 second calls during games? I don't think I've seen one called this season.

Good job by Curbelo to get Williams out of the fray. That's leadership.

Not exactly a strong finish to the half but still up by 14

Yes.  Damonte' was about to get ejected i think if he hadn't.

Very possible. Williams was already a lock for 1 technical so if he did something and got a 2nd one he would have been tossed. The action by Curbelo won't show up on any stat sheet but it might end up being the most important thing he did during this game. You can't teach that. The kid's instincts for the game are something else.

Hawkins playing well. For some reason I keep wanting to say Coleman Hawkins-Lands

Weak ass tech call. Let the kid show some emotion FFS.

Curbelo is amazing! That behind the back pass was phenomenal! 😍

I couldn’t tell what he said. Must have been egregious. Didn’t look egregious.

Nah, it was the right call. Underwood should have reminded him not to swear and kept him in the game, though.

If Koburn would learn how to tap blocked shots to his teammates (rather than knocking them out of bounds), he could help ignite the fast break.

I mean, I'm sure kids drop profanity in every game but I guess with no fans in the stands you really can't get away with it lol.

Good win for the Illini, 79-65 over Penn State. Game was never in doubt the 2nd half.

Great energy from start to finish. Penn St sucks but that was exactly the bounce back we needed. Now let's kick Iowa's ass next week!
