If we're having this conversation in a year or two, I'll be upset. For me, not this season. I"m not really too upset, just a little frustrated. long, long season.

illini recover their season nicely, though. but goodness, this season's been exhausting. only 3 left fortunately.

we really do need to learn how to win in this program. so many late game collapses.

jesus h, what a way to lose right there. moral victory. yay.

well, but how does Kent *really* feel?

over the back non call?

good opportunity pooched there.

ray keeping us alive.

illinois doesn't waste it's opportunity to stretch out. that 7-8 minute mark a ways back is going to haunt us.

On a day like today, you just never know. true. great chance for a huge win. really want this for these guys.

yes! shavon!

ubel jam whiff.....holy cow. sigh...we're not going to keep getting this many chances to get and stay ahead.

let's bust this zone

ray!!!!

woo hoo! talley playing really well.

nice lead for two seconds...heh heh. man, we're hanging like heck.

prayer 3. ugh. really nice half in spite of that doggone3.

Perhaps, but I'll bet he's very close to his thermos....

Dow 80K? Is Cher the offspring of aliens? Will we ever get a better celebrity mascot than Larry the Cable Guy? Thanks!

after getting my head handed to me in the wiscy game, I'll forgo doing that twice. I do think we'll play better in this one, tho Illini-68 NU-59

wonderful stuff. now excuse me while I cry myself to sleep.

really, who could have imagined we'd crawl back into a meaningful game with PSU at the end of he season? Win or lose, the women deserve a ton of credit for really bearing down when it mattered most. Another fine Yori team. PSU looks mortal all of a sudden. The Bob should be rocking for this one.GBR!

Good work, Norm! Crowd-sourced Wreck of the Andre Almeida lyrics! It really is a terrifying tale when you put it all together like that. Does anyone here know Gordon Lightfoot personally who could get him to record it? He just rewrote a line from the song two years ago, so he's probably not in the mood to do any more tinkering with a classic....

Not sure I agree. Miles makes basketball fun. I think there is a good chance Miles could have channelled Christian's passion for basketball (for those who used to go to practice, it's impossible to deny the effort and passion CSH brought to the game), and good things would have happened. What I don't know, from a technical standpoint, is how CSH would do in Miles' motion offense. But since it does not include a bunch of structured sets, I have a hunch he would have done fine. If the Hawaii coach can get this out of him, why couldn't Miles? Would love to have the guy on offense this year. I think all those who bitch like hell when Talley or Ray go one on three at the end of the shot clock and launch a bomb would like to have him as well. Sure, it would be great to have him. And while we're stealing ex-NU players/commits back from Hawaii, let's take Joaquim, too. It's possible that Christian needed the NU experience to get him more focused and more integrated with his team. I'm happy the guy's finding success and being a star for another team. I really am. But he didn't work out here.

heh heh. nebraska's got talent!
