Me too, with Goodluck, I thought big misses.

Theo Pinson stats today:

 

Started, played 25 minutes

2 pts

4 rebounds

3 TOs

4 fouls

 

He hasn't lived up to 5* rating at all so far, granted he's only a sophomore.  He's only shooting about 35% for his career.  I really wanted this kid when he came out of high school too.

Me too, thought for sure he would be solid

Wasn't he injured last year?

[Uspshoosier 45,663]

Wasn't he injured last year?

got hurt in January and missed 10 games came back at end of regular season but ended up missing 4 more games but before the injury he still wasn't that big a factor

Illinois is about to play chattanooga a good mid major team

Fully agree. Pinson was in the mold of Troy Williams as far as his athleticism being freakish but his BB fundamentals being behind. He could of used a school that would have developed him. I can honestly say and feel we would have been better for him. But it was going to be a process either way. And yes he is one of the examples of an underperforming 5 stars for sure.

Illinois down 2 50 sec left. It's been a good game

Illinois loses by 4 to chattanooga

Will Groce make it past this season?

At this rate he won't make it through this year.

[Uspshoosier 45,663]

it will be interesting if they can recover when they get full strength heading into the big ten regular season

Have to imagine they have to.

Man it's November 21st, not even Thanksgiving, and Illinois' season is pretty much over already.

 

2 bad losses this early are going to be awfully tough to overcome.

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,312]

And O$U losses in BB and FB. Things are good in B1G Ten sports for IU.

[TheWatShot 13,956]

Hope we can win both games against them. We need to start restoring our lead in the all time series.

The HOT SEAT is getting even hotter--starting to leave blisters!

Illinois has so many injuries though, don't think that team would be real good with any coach. 

[AKHoosier 6,857]

Somewhat related, but does anyone think Illinois should go after Cuonzo Martin for their next head coach?

 

He's obviously a Big 10 guy and an Illinois native, and I don't think him being a Boiler would matter.  If I were their next AD, I'd throw the bank at him unless there's some bad history between Martin and UI that I don't know about.

Berkeley is a nice atmosphere, compared to Champaign.
