QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Feb 23, 2006 -> 06:48 PM) Hammer does seem to have almost a blind bias towards defensive minded players. I think he would take Bowen over Lebron. Since when is Tyson known for his D haha

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 23, 2006 -> 06:02 PM) Ok, I have no problem with your post and hell, it might all be true. But first, the site that guy is a guru from is going to be as anti Illinois as possible, since those Kansas people all hate us, and the 2nd bolded part is 100 percent wrong. The guys who started this rumor have started ones in the past that more often than not were true. And they aren't the only ones talking about this, just the most prominent ones since they are big time members on the Illini Rivals site. But of course, also take that with a grain of salt. KU fans dont hate Illinois, they hate us.. Bossi is fantastic i agree.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 23, 2006 -> 05:55 PM) Weber has got a long way to go to build up that kinda resume, so I can't argue with that. Weber has a very very long time to go. Izzo, is by far the best tourney coach there is.

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Feb 23, 2006 -> 03:47 PM) You think Weber is a better coach than Izzo? No way in hell.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Feb 23, 2006 -> 12:39 AM) Stat of the day: Kevin Bookout has 2 assists this entire season. I dont think he can even lift his arms above his head, so many surgeries.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 11:59 PM) All I know about him is he was an all state baller at Chicago Hubbard in the mid 90's (so much so that he got his number retired) who didn't do much after that. And that he's pretty much taken over his brother's recruitment, which by all accounts was a red flag the day it happened (which was in early January). I did not know that, that sucks.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 11:53 PM) He won't end up at Illinois as long as his brother is running the show, no chance in hell. I had bad feelings about that since I read it 6 weeks ago, seeing as his brother is a failed athlete trying to live through his brother. This isn't going in a good direction at all. What is the deal with his bro??who is he and where did he come from.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 11:38 PM) Just turned this into the official trade deadline thread. In a day or so I'll merge this into the NBA thread, but until than post the rumors in here I guess. I'm hoping this will prevent tons of individual threads to pop up. But if the Bulls deal for Garnett or Pierce than you have my permission to make seperate threads Well as long as White Boy Hinrich stays on the team. I'll cry if he leaves. My favorite player in the NBA. No way they trade Hinrich, he is the perfect point guard with skiles.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 11:35 PM) God I wish Hinrich stuck in state and went to Iowa. I remember Collison talked to one of my classes. He was asked about recruiing and said... he was going to sign at ISU but Eustachy scared his gramma, and he decided to drop them.

I really think a trade would really give this team a positive shot in the arm.

Speaking of cool names, KU is recruiting this cool name for 2008. http://kansas.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=516182

I really think Pods can close to 100 if healthy. I just can't wait till he gets in the head of Carlos Zambrano, i love it.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 10:50 PM) I know, that's what I meant. EDIT: I must be tired, why did I bring that up? I thought you meant he was the white guy going to Iowa State. don't worry we are talking the same concept i think.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 10:48 PM) I assume you don't watch Georgetown games if you have Self as coach of the year, but you can't deny the job he's done. And Arthur is yours if you keep Baylor away (amazing I'm saying that). I know Baylor is a player, Kevin Rogers is a good friend of Arthur's and a current player for baylor.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 10:47 PM) Ahh that big kid from Minnesota, Cole Aldrich right? McRoberts 2.0 (I mean that in a good way btw). No, Aldrich, top center nextyear is property of Kansas.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 10:47 PM) We're a hell of a lot more pissed at one of the white Iowa boys than the two others. We have a white kid from Duluth. For our sake, I hope he brings enough testicles for the entire post rotation. If he's as good as Minnesota Boy sullivan, I am worried. Jake the snake was so good.

Coach of the year Self was in Dallas personally recruiting Slim Shady Arthur today.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 10:45 PM) Yeah, well we've got a guy with an apostrophe in his name coming in. Your move. We recruited a white kid who is not european, have not seen that at KU since the Iowa boys...haha.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 10:44 PM) Nice you forgot to mention it's because his punk ass brother wants money. Let Rose go play for Ohio State if he wants that, we have plenty of other top 2007 players interested, and 3 already on board. Actually I heard Rose is looking at UNC now...I did not know about the money part, interesting.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan99 @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 10:41 PM) Really? From where did you get this bulls***. It's all over the illinois. board. They are saying Rose is pissed at Bruce Almighty for some reason. Well it was, but the mods took it off, the illini are now discussing it at phog.net

Rumor has it Rose is thinking no-go to the Illini after all. hmmmm could Bruce Almighty lose another.

Illinois is good at second place....haha i had too

tie game here...lets go usa.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Feb 22, 2006 -> 02:25 AM) 2 interesting stats: - We've given up 38 3s in our last 4 Big Ten losses - In conference, we have outscored our opponents by 74 points in the first half. We have been outscored by our opponents by 5 points in the second half. They need to move the 3 line back.
