QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Oct 28, 2006 -> 01:55 AM) Announcement is set for nov 4 I'm going to cautially say Memphis. I'm still going with my theory that he does not want to play with Gordon.

QUOTE(Brian @ Oct 27, 2006 -> 03:24 PM) Mike Conley and Greg Oden could be two of the best freshmen in the nation, even if Oden could be out til Big 10 play starts. And?

LOL, who could hinestly justify giving OSU a number one vote? And Wichita State not being ranked in a travesty!

Hit it to their pitchers. How many errors by their pitchers do they have so far? Atleast 4. Amazing Statistic.

Literally, that was the worst throw I have ever seen in my time watching MLB

Martez Wilson to Illinois? Stay tuned.

It would make a lot of Illini fans hypocritical if Rose chooses Illinois. And honestly, I don't think it is that farfetch'd. Everyone and their brother knows Weber has continued to recruit him since he took Illinois off his list. With that said, does anyone else get the feeling that Rose simply does not want to play with Gordon?

Isn't Cheap Seats off the air now too?

Roller Coaster Tycoon is maybe my favorite game ever. If you are to buy it, get number two, not three or four. Awesome game. So much customization and I can't tell you how many hours I have spent killing helpless AI by building half roller coasters(Or starving them, or locking them in the park, etc...)

QUOTE(He_Gawn @ Oct 25, 2006 -> 08:39 PM) How's Benn going to help UI while hes playing for Weis? Please never take the arrogance argument when talking about recruits. It'll hurt you in the end.

AND THE N-W-OHHHHHHH! Intriguing ending.

LMAO at that Halloween Havoc segment.

This is why the WWE's tag division has sucked lately. They do not know how to push a tag team. Cryme Tyme has just beat "the best" tag team in WWE twice in two weeks now. Where the hell do you go from there? Why not start them off against the lesser teams like the Highlanders or Cade and Murdoch?

BROOKLYN BROOKLYN

"He could be a quieter Ozzie Guillen" What, exactly, is the point then? But yeah, I fully condone him leaving.

We played tackle football on frickin' blacktop and no one ever got hurt outside of the expected scrapes. Yet they wnat to ban tag....for what?

QUOTE(Jimbo @ Oct 17, 2006 -> 10:42 PM) CJ Giles kicked off KU team, no reason given...suspicion involves his little CJ Giles runnnig around.. More time for DA and Jackson to step in. This could also be the scholly that gives us Kyle Singler,who knwsl More mysterious transfers/ kicking offs fron teams from Self. Hmmm...

OMG CRYME TYME!!!!! MTFO!!!

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Oct 17, 2006 -> 01:24 AM) They are going to need a really sweet draw and some guys stepping up. They'll do okay in the Big Ten and should still be tough at home, but the tourney is another story. Not really. They have two potential top-10 teams in Wisconsin and Ohio State, that's more than most conferences can say. Plus Michigan and Penn State also have some talent, and Illinois isn't a total dog. I just don't see why they are in such bad shape. They have arguably the best defensive team in the country with Frazier, Randle, Pruitt, and McBride on the floor. With the little scoring they'll need, they should be able to get from Jamar Smith, McBride and Pruitt. Their major problems are will be foul problems and the lack of a star player. Illinois is extremly deep, but they simply don't have anyone who has shown the ability to take over a game.

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Oct 17, 2006 -> 01:17 AM) I don't see how they are going to make the Sweet 16 this year. Quoted for emphasis later. And if Illinois is in as much trouble as you think, well, then the Big ten conference is in MAJOR trouble.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Oct 16, 2006 -> 03:40 AM) this team is not going to be anywhere near the Final Four unless they start getting the Sherron Collins, Eric Gordon, and Julian Wright's of the world. We'll agree to disagree. Strongly, strongly disagree.

QUOTE(fathom @ Oct 16, 2006 -> 03:24 AM) Taylor...let me ask you this: if Kansas played Illinois this year 10 times on a neutral court, how many times would you predict Illinois would win? I'm sorry fathom, but that's just an unanswerable question. Predictions are predictions, but you are asking for an exact number of wins between two teams we haven't even seen play yet.

I'll be updating My Big Ten Preview tommorrow for anyone who cares.

Illinois' roster: Richard McBride- 4 Star propect, top 100 recruit Brian Randle- 4 star prospect, top 100 recruit Warren Carter- 4 star prospect, top 100 recruit Calvin Brock- 4 star prospect, top 100 rectcruit Shaun Pruitt- 4 star prospect, top 100 recruit Brian Carwell- 4 star prospect, top 100 recruit Richard Semrau(preinjury)- 5 star prospect, top 20 recruit Of the other 3 players on their roster since day one who are not top 100 recruits, two of them are expected to start this year with one of them being arguably the team's best player. The third was a top 100 football player coming out of high school. The moral here, obviously, is that Illinois has done a horrible job of bringing players into the program, and are deeply screwed.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Oct 15, 2006 -> 10:33 PM) Well, with all due respect, him or anyone else on here isn't a manager because we don't have the same oppurtunities and connections than Ozzie Guillen, someone who played the game and has all the connections in the world. I'm pretty sure fathom was just joking around.
