Jimbo's Drinker

is he bringing his staff with??

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jan 2, 2008 -> 10:01 PM) Ya, kind of like you guys were last year with the refs so they'd give you 6 points in the sweet 16. As a saluki i would not be talking tourney......under 500

Iglesias is fast as hell. Devine is well...awesome

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jan 2, 2008 -> 09:30 PM) Well we officially suck. Suck real bad. Like horribly suck. Like the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked. Looks like you guys are on your knees too much....floorburn U...haha so last year. Coach Jank(former KU asst) has Ill State as second best team in Illinois.

QUOTE(bmags @ Jan 2, 2008 -> 08:04 PM) what the hell happens to bob stoops in bowl games? He can only win when Mangino is his assistant.

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Jan 2, 2008 -> 07:23 PM) Problem with your argument is that Illinois was not there instead of Missouri. Mizzou not being in the BCS had NOTHING to do with Illinois. The only way Missouri could have gotten in is to be picked instead of Kansas. Do Missouri fans ever shut up....shut up

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jan 2, 2008 -> 07:02 PM) Collins 9.3 ppg, 2.3 rpg, 2.9 apg, 22.3 mpg Johnson 12.3 ppg, 7.9 rpg, 1.1 apg, 31.7 mpg Those are their freshman campaigns. Anyways, ISU plays fightin' USC Upstate tonight. Yay. Collins is a good player, and probably better than Wes this year, but Wes also is playing injured this year. I think Wes was more impressive and a bigger surprise last year. Again, who is this guy??? Forgive me for not paying attention to our worst program in the Big 12.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jan 2, 2008 -> 06:04 PM) No. Then nevermind.....carry on

Is Oral Roberts in OVC??? they beat KU at the fieldhouse.

ESPN does move to LA very soon, they have to start revving up the West Coast hype machine.

Go coach Jank!!

QUOTE(Brian @ Jan 1, 2008 -> 11:20 PM) Tonights game is taking forever. Are the commercial breaks like 5 minutes? the ntl champ game will take longer. God, im looking forward to the kansas game, the underdogs have been great in the BCS so far. haha

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jan 1, 2008 -> 09:25 PM) Come now, Wes was the most impressive freshman in the conference last year that didn't play for Texas. No way he is better than Sherron Collins.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Dec 31, 2007 -> 06:07 PM) Not a bad win over Albany. I partied with the Great Danes after the game. Wes Johnson is good. Who,who and who??

Illinois sucks, KU is good

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Dec 30, 2007 -> 06:32 PM) Any fan that bashes Illinois basketball is in their right. Most Illini fans were unbearable in their love for Bruce, to the point where some STILL defend him. This to me is like the football program under Turner circa 2003 right now though, we're one great coaching hire away from returning to prominence. The problem is I don't know how long it will take us to fire the horrible coach and if the new guy will be any good. We got lucky with football, hopefully whenever the Weber era mercifully ends, the same occurs. Oh, and not all Illini fans have loved "BAM" forever, there are some of us who were concerned in November of 2004 when we signed a class of an offensive linemen, a 2 star PG with a 2nd best offer of College of Charleston, and a spot up shooting specialist (and hell, he turned out to be a felon). dont worry the class of 2010 will win it all.

QUOTE(Felix @ Dec 30, 2007 -> 06:24 PM) Man, I don't even like the Illini, but you're pretty unbearable with the Illinois bashing, aren't you? (not that it isn't warranted in this instance, I'm just making a comment from the sidelines here) Too damn bad and I love it! I heard too many Illini fans declaring Weber god's gift to coaching, hell, some said Frazier was the next Dee Brown.

Can someone tell me the record of Weber without Self's recruits?

KU played a team with the same record as TSU at home last night...just double checkin i lost zero finger nails with nerves in that game. ha f'in ha

Illinois in the NIT, not so fast

just to put it into perspective. 1) TSU is in the OVC. The OVC is currently ranked 31st (dead last) in conference RPI. 2) TSU's RPI prior to this game = 246. 3) TSU's only Division I victory prior to this game was a two-point win over a historically bad Eastern Illinois team (currently last place in the nation in RPI).

Weber...hes good....

Can we get Henry Burris he was like a one quarter star.

maybe they can keep blaming Jessica Simpson....yikes

Good luck Illini...
