    The Illini had a grand total of EIGHT assists tonight

    If you guys think beating an inexperienced Illini team with 6 new players with 3 being freshmen in overtime, at a poorly attended for NW home game then you don't understand the shape you are in going forward in the B1G. Illinois most likely pounds you later in the year as they will definitely...

    Walker retained by UoI; reported benefits to their recruiting

    Well let's see... 2018 class pretty well identified for Illini. NU is still dreaming of players going elsewhere but can say you were close. But enough of this. It was like putting a fake mouse in front of a dump cat and watching it lunge and miss repeatedly. You have to admit I did get your...

    Walker retained by UoI; reported benefits to their recruiting

    Not worried. Love where our B-ball program sits. Great hire with Underwood. Great class coming in and will be added to. NU already hoping for a good 2018 class... Precious. I'd be more worried about sustaining your best stretch ever. New territory. Collins is good and gives you a chance until K...

    Walker retained by UoI; reported benefits to their recruiting

    I'm assuming most of the posters on here haven't been accepted at NU. The sheer stupidity on here is priceless. You make the tourney for the first time ever and now you are an established program? You let Groce beat you twice. You also used up about 10 years of luck this year. There is still a...

    Can we please kill Illinois Tuesday?

    NW = NU. Civil post so appreciated. Just information to consider: Here's some salient facts. I didn't assemble them but did link the source. 14th all time in the NCAA in wins (#12 in winning percentage) #15 (tied) all time in NCAA bids (tied for 2nd in the B1G) #22 all time in NCAA Tournament...

    Can we please kill Illinois Tuesday?

    I truly laugh at this board. NW has never, ever been anything on the BB court. They can only dream to have half the tradition of Illini BB. This is NW's best team in a long while in a year the B1G is crappy and you are still struggling with confidence and starting to feel the sphincter pucker a...
