Montez proving you doubters wrong. Such an important piece because we have guys in the roster who just can’t play in a game like this. Need to ride him and young

Kind of. I mean they are playing ok D. We can’t shoot. Geo missed a lob to Mathis. Harper can’t hit anything. Maybe we can stop with the NBA talk. He is a good player but not NBA good.

Please stop. Harper will be fine.

get this to 4-5 by halftime and I am good considering how a step behind we have been all game BUT its going to take good decision making the last few minutes, we havent closed out halves that well this year although this is the first time we are behind...opportunity is there

This is where we miss the RAC. If we get it to 3 or 4 points with a full house the place is going bonkers and momentum builds.

Just can’t get over hump right now. Every time get within striking distance they give up an easy score. We will be fine. Just need to make the wide open 3s that illinois is consistently doing right mow

Young just maybe the player on this team with the greatest differential of talent among our opponents

Illinois has more and better skill players. But what bothers me is that UI is playing better defense than we are.

Nobody doubts Montez is a huge part of this team and does a lot of things really well. He is just not a 3 point shooter. Being 20 something percent from 3 means you shouldn't shoot 3's.

Getting a 2nd foul on Williams is a sneaky awesome thing. Get Harper in and have him go right at whoever they put in now

So far Illinois has more scoring options.Rutgers will have a very difficult time defeating top tier B1G teams with poor scoring performances from Harper and Baker.Mathis and Young Rutgers main scorers.Illinois leads 35-27.

Yep, if we are down 2 possessions consider it a win . Think we’ve gotten into an ok flow on offense now just need to make some stops
