    I'm Glad Illinois Lost

    Illinois shot even worse from 3 against us. They're a bunch of euro-merc Angel Reeses, that game should've been much closer with fair reffing.

    *****NCAA March Madness 2026 thread*****

    Yep, that Mara kid killed us down the stretch with a lucky bank jumper and then an alley lay in while falling over. He's done similar things against Arizona in the first half so I dunno if it's luck anymore.

    *****NCAA March Madness 2026 thread*****

    Too much BS happened in the Iowa game for me to root for Illinois, they and the refs from that game can go eat garbage.

    Caitlin Clark

    This is crazy ex stuff. Connor out there slashing tires for his dad after Iowa broke up with him for not playing defense in 15 years. I honestly think he dated Caitlyn as a hedge in case his dad got fired so he could take her away from Iowa fans as revenge.

    Is it assumed Alvaro returns?

    Although Alvaro was not consistent and put up 0fers many games this year, his shots in the Florida and Nebraska games flipped those games. It's true that someone else may have helped us win those games by more and gotten past Illinois, but it's hard to be sure of that.

    Can We Please Slow Our Roll on the Curt Cignetti Comparisons or the Immediate Contract Renegotiation?

    If we're going to play devil's advocate: -Stirtz is probably the best PG talent in school history. Yet Iowa had several bad losses, only got a 9 seed, and was one clutch Alvaro shot from equaling a common Fran result. Now Stirtz is gone. -Hausen was brought in and was rarely used, showing that...

    I heard some Illini Euro guys played pro in Europe; True? if so which ones?

    Basket interference is already a rule dude.

    I heard some Illini Euro guys played pro in Europe; True? if so which ones?

    Illinois is basically exploiting an oversight on the part of NCAA when it introduced NIL. It was harder to get these foreign players to leave home when there wasn't a big payday involved, now they can fill out a whole roster with them. Clever but also extremely effed and reduces opportunities...

    Other Games

    There were only 10 seconds left, they didn't even need to cross halfcourt, just dribble and pass it backwards. The guy who made the pass before the deflected pass never moved, if he moves baseline it's an easy passback and pass ahead.

    Shocker the refs were terrible

    Illinois goaltended, collided into each other to get free throws, flailed for more free throws, then kicked a dude in the nuts to stop a breakaway dunk. Refs review it and say "common foul, kicking nuts while lying on ground 20 feet from ball is a basketball play". They lived off ref generosity...

    last 10 games vs NCAA tournament run

    B1G officiating is much, much worse than what we saw in tourney play. But also, Alvaro is some kind of crazy wild card player that will score either 0 or 20 points and the quality of opponent doesn't matter (He scored 0 @ Minnesota and Maryland). He is a literal roll of the dice.

    Shocker the refs were terrible

    Buddy, there aren't enough 7 footers to go around in college sports. Cleaning up garbage shots for full point value is literally the worst rule in basketball right now. A sport which also used to not have a 3 point line or a shot clock.

    Shocker the refs were terrible

    The rules should change to only 1 point awarded after missing and no shot clock reset. This "whoever has the 7 footer camping in the paint wins" bs would end overnight in college ball.
