Had started all of the "Fighting Illini" games till Sunday. Concussed diving for a ball in practice on Saturday. Won't even dress for Sunday's game. Medical has ok'd him to watch the game from the locker room. Took a big hit. Nice kid. Like you... hope the protocol holds through Wednesday. And the "Fighting Illini" have to go small against IU.

Haas isn’t a good rebounder for a 7’2 guy. This isn’t a good rebounding team. That's funny because a month or so ago you said this team had no weaknesses.

Sure he’ll be the focus but the kid is a stud. We'll see how much of a stud he is when he has the best defender draped over him every game next year. He's going to have every opportunity to shine with this class gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted February 12, 2018 Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 I think we can stick a fork in the Illini helping IU. Their first basket at the 2nd half comes at 12:42 remaining. Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted February 12, 2018 Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 Penn St definitely looking like they have 3 losses coming maybe all 4. Up 17 now. Our loss vs Illinois continues to look bad. Oh well. Onward and upward for us. We have positive mojo going.... On the other hand...Illinois is neck and neck with Rutgers in football and now they can add basketball to how bad their athletic department is over there. Pretty impressive to be the worst at both football and basketball. Congrats Illini! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I know... the PSU game did not help IU ,in terms of positioning for the BTT. . However, the "FIGHTING ILLINI" loss was great for me to see on so many levels.... even going back 10 years. NovaIllini... where are you tonight ? Orange too ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick scan of online/sites....can't believe how many of their fans are openly saying all players can leave. Underwood might have to go deep into Juco/Grad transfers this off season.

I plan on starting a Brad Underwood thread tomorrow. It's not all bad. Just what I think he should do... to turn his program around. Kind of relates to what you have just posted.

Whether he wants it or not...he's going to go the Iowa St route for a couple years and pray he hits on some chances. Look forward to the thread!

I saw that graphic near the end of the game and came away feeling like IU will most likely be the 6 seed in the B1G tourney. Isn't that about where IU was last year?

Stlboiler23 Posted February 12, 2018 Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 5 hours ago, mchenry34 said: The difference as I see it will be like what Yogi experienced when he had other really good options on the floor vs when he was on the 2013 team with very few other threats ready to contribute. Edwards is quite good, but there are driving lanes for him right now simply because the four other people on the floor can’t be left alone. Next year, the lane will be very clogged. I know that Purdue will have some other pieces, but Yogi had sheehey and Vonleh as well as a few very athletic freshmen and there was just not much room to operate. also, teams will have more fouls to give because Haarms (who may give himself a stroke with more minutes on the floor is much more guardable than Haas) will take them on Edwards as he drives...it’s just not going to be the same for him next year... Carsen can get to the rim easily and if they close off the lanes, he has a solid midrange game and can hit pull-up jumpers. He’s such a tough cover.

It will take some adjustment.......if it evens comes at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel like any time i'm on this site theres pages and pages of Purdue talk--with a couple people defending their legitimacy and the rest of us happy they're going south. I just want to come on my IU fan board and be able to trash PU without opposition, is that too much to ask?! couldn't agree more. drives me crazy that Purdouche is our top topic.
