For your reading pleasure, I give you the Illinois message board, starting at halftime. I recommend starting with post that states ”Let’s go fellas!!! We’re 20 minutes away from a final 4 berth and it’s there for the taking!!

Typical Iwhini fans. Always blaming the officials.

Listening to the crew between the games and have to ask….

What does Clark Kellog bring to the table? I’m surprised they have kept him around this long.

Who else is going to say, "you have to squeeze the orange, big fella!"

Aaron Estrada needs to pay me to never watch him. I know he’s a good player and yet the half dozen or so Bama games I’ve watched this year I’ve never seen him good.

LOL --  my favorite post was from AT6.  After U Conn had gotten the run to 30-0, he posted "this team is rattled".

Ya think?

That sequence was fun.  5 straight threes.  2 by Clemson and 3 by Bama.

Wasn't much of a push by Girard before the time out, but he did  push him and then immediately went over and stood over him and said something.

I swear, every time I watch Mark Sears and sit here and mumble to myself about how that is the EXACT player Woody needs to find and then remember that he started out at Ohio U, I’m unsure whether to be annoyed that he’s not in Bloomington or encouraged that he can, in fact, be found.

Seemed like he was calling out the flop.

Kind of nice that there won't be any games going past midnight tonight.

Do you think Sears would be anywhere nearly as effective in Woody’s current offense?

I don’t.

We have two choices:

1) Substantially alter the offense, or 

2) Bring in a guy like Perkins at the point, because Perkins gets going downhill, defends, and is a really good fit for what Woody currently runs.

I think Sears would fit any system.

Mark Sears in the post game: “Hard work is undefeated.”

1) I can’t see happening.

2) Perkins doesn’t fit with Gallo.  (and no Gallo shouldn’t be coming off the bench nor will he as a 5th year senior for Mike Woodson).  Gallo needs to play the point. Connor Hickman is at the top of my wish list.

Wasn't Hickman suppose to visit IU this weekend. I see nothing on twitter that says that or how his visit went if there was one. Where is @Chris007 when you need him.

Trey Galloway as IU’s starting point guard is waving the white flag of surrender before the season starts.

And I’m a Galloway 25+ mpg fan.

We can disagree.  I still like you, just not as much as @Class of '66 Old Fart

Those last 5 points in last 5 seconds cost me big. Alabama -3.5 was easy in the bag.
