At least we can be proud of our guys and not be led by some player of questionable character.

I'd want the coach fired if i was an arizona fan tonight.
And yeah, that'd be an overreaction based on one game, but what in the actual **** were they doing continuing to jack up all those 3s when they were being gifted foul after foul driving to the basket?
Dunking is okay instead of finger rolls that fail and wild swooping banks that are so hard they fly off. Lack of hustle and no 3 point D doomed this game. Great season for the seniors
Yeah. Think he's the banner recruit for us to get more 5s. His improvement was incredible. I am nervous ablti losing him, because it seems clear he's a leader in oractice...which you need for tjs intense practice style.
Innocent until proven guilty. The university made the decision to suspend him, but he lawyered up.
I wouldn't want someone with that noise on our team. But that's me.
Illinois played half court backing a guard down to the block, which no player occupied. We normally trap the other team's post, but by using this strategy Illinois spread the ball out even further than BYU or any other teams did. We didn't adjust well in the first half then in the 2nd half their most important run came when Shannon came back in after sitting from foul trouble & we go to the well again & try the traps clear out by the 3 point line, which led to the run which started with Shannon catching a low pass & nailing a 3. We'll need an addition to the play book to combat this in the future. [what the Hell it is, I've no clue]

Unfortunately, society places higher value on these sorts of people.. athletes/celebrities/politicians, etc.
Had he been a nobody, with little funds, he’d be sitting in jail awaiting trial.
However, in today’s society he’s playing for a national championship instead in front of major crowds.
Not happy with the outcome, but think it’s important to keep it in perspective. ISU’s coaching staff is top notch, and this team exceeded most everyone’s expectations. Illinois had a much bigger and athletic lineup. Shannon was a breast and ISU didn’t have anyone who was as remotely good. Still, this team fought and the three guard tandem of Lipsey, Gilbert, and Jones are likely to return. Consequently, next year is likely to be even better.
How long does this ******* get to spout off his ********? That’s twice in the game thread
One other difference was I don’t think the refs called any charges outside of running over screens. Refs didn’t decide it, I just think we would usually get those and it changed our defense a little.
He lawyered up with the NIL money and others "invested" in his basketball future. Play at all costs....win at all costs. Underwood must be proud.
It is kind of bizarre that a star player cannot talk to the media AT ALL.
I mean imagine if they were to win it all and the star player basically has a gag order.
I like that lineup but I don’t think you can go 3 guard with two being pretty small in the Big 12. I think TJ wants to be big and if Curtis is willing to keep coming off the bench I think that would be optimal.
Brad Underwood don’t give a ****.
Teams like FAU, VCU, Loyola and George Mason have made the final four. There’s absolutely no reason we can’t get there.
That was a bizarre game too. Completely got away from what got them there. And it’s not as if it wasn’t working against Clemson too. No reason for the threes.
After today's fiasco at Kennedy Space Center and tonight's game, I really don't want to go to Legoland tomorrow.
Not if you take into account that Illinois shot well below their FT average. We lost the game in the first half when we couldn’t buy a bucket outside of Curtis.
