Fuck Boeheim. That is all.
-
Correct.
-
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
-

Spot on. Couldn't have said it better myself.
-
We’ve been the class of the B1G the last couple years why did we draw Cuse?
-
Illini 77 Syracuse 63

First match up in 33 years?
-
Does not look like they practiced against a zone....
-
Check that
-
Clark just got posterized. That was nasty.
-
Hawkins off to a good start. They need that.
-

He needs it after that last game
-
1/9 from three. Might want to get it inside.
-
Like that.
-
This zone SHOULD BE the perfect defense for Dainja to thrive in if we can get him the ball. His craftiness at the low post or even him at the FT line would work well. Gotta stop jacking up 3’s!
-
1/9 from three. Might want to get it inside.
Yes. Quick, short passes gets it done in that zone.
-
Harris limping. :(
-
Shannon's heating up!
-
4/13 from. That's a losing % if we keep chucking at that rate.
-
We're doing exactly what Cuse's zone wants us to do.
-
Moxie!
-
Hawkins needs to start popping that 12 footer in paint soon as he catches it.
-
Skyy lost the ability to hit free shots :(
-
3 starters with 0 pts.
-

Would saying it doesn't matter until January 6th break any truce?
-
Shoot the fucking ball, Hawkins.
-
Jeff Frank said Kofi wouldn't be missed. What an idiot.
-
Shoot the fucking ball, Hawkins.
Lol he won't. He's too locked into passing it before he even gets it.
-
Nice play to end the half at least.
We're moving the ball against the zone. Problem is we're kicking it back out to launch threes rather than take the 12 foot jumper that's open.
-
Lol he won't. He's too locked into passing it before he even gets it.
He's pissing me off. No wonder Brad constantly gets on him. Grow some balls, kid.
-
Let's take a moment to understand just how fucking bad Syracuse is. We are 1 for 5 from the line and 5 for 24 from 3. Yet up 7.
-
We’ve been the class of the B1G the last couple years why did we draw Cuse?
We lost almost our whole team?
-
5/24 from three...in one half.
Playing right into Cuse's zone.
-
Jeff Frank said Kofi wouldn't be missed. What an idiot.
He has not been alone in that thought. Plenty of people lumped him in the Glad He Is Gone Category.
-
Cuse doing what they do, making the game ugly. 8 buckets and 6 turnovers and only down 7.
-

We are on pace for 60 points on 33% shooting, the offense flows so much better!
-

Plus 1 of 5 on Free Shots and Cuse has shot 11 Free Shots.

Yikes
-
Come out of the half..launching more threes.
-
We’re gonna see a lot of zones playing like this lol. Lots of ammunition for other teams to see on tape from this performance.
-
I don't know wtf that shot was from Shannon.
-

It's like we had no idea that Cuse would play a zone.
-
Hawkins needs to shoot that FT line jumper. He’s wide open every time. Sometimes even closer than that in the lane. He doesn’t even look to shoot that.
-
Missing free throws.
-
Missing free throws.
Hmmmmm.
-
There has to be a lid on the rim. I don't know how Shannon's take didn't go in.
-
And yes, free shots are a problem. Not waiting until Jan 6th to confirm that. ;D
-
Missing free throws.
And FGs
-
Shannon hit his free shots!
-

The one he shot in the lane on a nice move was terrible. It was like he wanted it out of his hand.
Made a wide open three then next trip hit the 13 footer.
-

I have to bite my tongue and just wait for someone to admit they were wrong.
-
3-10 on free shots. Damned joke.
-

Lol
-
Skyy Clark should think about hitting the transfer portal.
-
Lol
Better now, before it bites them in the ass during the 1st weekend of the Tournament.
-
Who thought those Gap commercials were a good idea?
-
Thank you R.J. we need him
-
Yes! Keep pouring it on that POS Boeheim
-
I like our intensity
-

You are so much more a meathead than I realized. FT shooting, may or may not be a problem. What I do know is that “OMG FT shooing!” On opening night in a 30 point win is a knee jerk reaction. Right now they are 66% FT shooting team not having a good night (from the field or the line). I’d argue 8-32 from 3 is more disturbing than a smaller sample size of 5-12 from the line. Meanwhile, we’re up 21. How bad is Syracuse?

This is as close as it will ever get.
-
If B1G play rolls around, and we’re shooing 60% feom the line, it’s ok to start worrying.
-
Yes! Keep pouring it on that POS Boeheim
I HEAR YA!
-

Too bad it is already a problem. The coach should do something about it now, before we get to B1G season. Maybe Robb can ask him what the hell he is going to do about it.
-
Baylor getting destroyed by Marquette
-
Boeheim the pedestrian killer can fuck off and eat shit. Every time I hear his name now, I wonder if he was drunk that night.
-
Haha I didn't know a Hawkins triple double was in play. Might be the quietest triple double ever.

It’s not been very good. It’s still early in the season, and a pretty small sample size. I will concede that it needs to be better.

How long ago was that?
-

2 years?

Killed a guy on the highway at 11:30 at night. You never heard about it? This is exactly what bothers me about this kind of shit (not blaming you, the way that coaches are protected).

See, all is well!

We played like shit for majority of the game and we're still gonna win by 30.
That's how much of a scumbag loser you are, Boeheim.

Makes it sound like he was avoiding the car in the road and hit the guy. Did mention no one was under the influence.
-
Hopefully Harris is ok
-
Big10 play starts Fri.
We went on a tear at the end to finish with 64% free shot shooting.
-

After Joe Paterno, I don’t trust law enforcement when it comes to powerful coaches.
-
Well done, Hawkins.
-
And Skyy Clark 0 for 10. Oof.
-
21 assists on 24 buckets.
17 offensive boards and 4 second chance points. Oops.

"Boeheim's blood-alcohol registered a .00, Onondaga County District Attorney William Fitzpatrick confirmed. Friends and family told the Post-Standard that Boeheim does not drink alcohol."

Underwood gets his 100th Illini win beating the POS Boeheim. How sweet it is.

Maybe he smokes weed?

Maybe he was trying to avoid a vehicle parked in the middle of an interstate in the middle of the night. Most people don't get a whole lot of practice doing that.

Yeah, but the guy is like 95 years old. He shouldn't be driving.
He did marry a woman like 40 years younger than him who wanted a sugar daddy, and wasn't there some big sex abuse scandal with his staff he denied?
-
Well that was a game of basketball that was played
Yeah, that was ugly. Syracuse is bad.
I would suggest any opposing coach who sees that will use an occasional zone to cause our entire team to act stupid as shit. Just to fuck with us.
-

The announcers were too busy trying to be clever. The discussion about Syracuse using the "portal" was mind-numbingly dumb.
I did enjoy when they pointed out Cuse is a whopping two games over .500 in conference play since joining the ACC. Not to defend their mediocrity, but I did start to think how much fun it would be to travel consistently from far upstate N.Y. to the heart of North Carolina, Georgia, and south Florida.

The three-point shooting was abysmal. Good thing the Cuse had its head in the clouds most of the game.

Syracuse has possibly the worst constructed roster I have seen all year.

But the "portal" will save them!
Also, what's the deal with the Syracuse guy the announcers kept piling on and then defending? Just a slump? Food poisoning? Does he have pics of Boeheim and sheep? Does Boeheim have pics of him and sheep? Possibly offering a stat -- not one of the ESPN-created stats, such as "win probability," but an actual stat -- might tell us something.

Fran is one of the worst announcers, he flat out sucks
As far as the rest of the game, we played like dog doo for the most part and still won by nearly 30 so there's that... Syracuse is pretty terrible though, need to step it up against maryland that's for sure

It's still a game in November with a mostly unfamiliar roster. I'll take it. We can shoot a bit better from 3 (and we will) and the rest of the box score was fine.
-
And Skyy Clark 0 for 10. Oof.
And Mintz put him on a poster. Rough night for the kid. He’ll bounce back.

Lol. Yeah, he has been inconsistent for sure. There is a lot of talent and high ceiling if he gets his mental focus right.
