whitesoxfan101 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 IU certainly has a shot since that will be one of those awful 55-51 games, but as much trouble as White had against those 6'7" white guys from Gonzaga, he'll get killed by UCLA playing that way.

Rowand44 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 IU will be in that game through out, but in the end UCLA's guards will just be too much imo and they'll pull it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sp...cs-home-utility  OMGOMGOMG, SIU MIGHT LOSE THEIR COACH AGAIN, OMG!!!  Moccia better pony up. The rumor is a deal worth 500K base plus incentives, time for the alumni to sweeten this pot. Minnesota is not a better situation than what he has going, despite facilities. Lowery would have to rebuild that team from the bottom up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can keep him around, this program is going to continue to get better as the prospects he's landing us are just outstanding. If he goes, well there's a possibility we lose Fay, Roundtree and Booker, and all of the sudden we're in a s*** load of trouble. I pretty much think we're going to lose him, I better be wrong.

greasywheels121 Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 It's a win-win for me in the IU game. In my bracket, UCLA is in my final four, after getting past Indiana, Pitt, and Kansas. However, I have no problem with IU destroying my bracket to make a little bit of noise in the tournament. My bracket will be destroyed regardless.

tigerfan Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Only because they got the refs in their backpocket seemingly. I've seen 2 crap calls (and non calls) the last few minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 If I were Illini Id go for the win on this possession. Might as well either win or lose with the ball in your own hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 F***ing Illini...screwing up a perfect round for the Big Ten. Â If USC wins, this will be the first year in like a decade without a 12>5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 They had a couple of no-calls at the end there on Pruitt and Carter, but the last 10 minutes of that game were crap offensively for the Illini. They couldnt penetrate to save their lives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 I wish they would have won, but atleast they showed up and gave a much higher seed a really tough time. Maybe if the Big 10 had gotten more respect Illinois gets a better first round match up and wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if the Big 10 had gotten more respect Illinois gets a better first round match up and wins. Â That was pretty much a perfect matchup for UofI. That team was very undisciplined, and U of I and their defense were able to take advantage for the first 30+ minutes. If the Illini adjusted AT ALL offensively in the second part of the second half they would've won comfortably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepyWhiteSox Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Wow, I really thought they had that game...a choke of a finish...

Maybe the Big East can feel disrespected for not getting a worthy cuse team in with the unbalanced schedule excuse or a mid-major like the caa for not getting a team with a pretty good resume like drexel in, but I just can't see how you keep saying the big 10 isn't getting enough respect...
