NBAWhat jobs are open that make sense for a B1G coach?

Well not according to the Director of recruiting for IG…(inside Illini joke- one “analyst” is VERY high on Michigans portal additions… there’s only 3 Illinois analyst that know their stuff. The rest…pretty embarrassing)
Yeah but then he’d be coaching the pistons so no win situation
Yeah they did. The 3rd period was so frustrating to watch. They were playing not to lose and basically abandoned what got them there.Minnesota choked hard on the penis tonight
If I was Howard I would take an NBA job. He’s turned down jobs the last 3 offseasons and college coaching has become a much more difficult job.
Speaking of, pretty solid first year for Ivey given how bad they were and Cade got hurt.Yeah but then he’d be coaching the pistons so no win situation
MSU should be the favorites next year imo if they all return.Sounds like MSU is getting Hall, Akins, and Walker back.
Hall just had foot surgery. Definitely wasn’t the same player down the stretch but when he was healthy early, he was great. Definitely excited to have him back if healthy.
You think I wanted that slug? lolIllinois lands a backup that Wisconsin targeted as a starter. Someone help @jwardelt, his program is poor.
Easy there, Beilein!You think I wanted that slug? lol
haha. We need to get more athletic, not less. Illinois can waste money on no results with the best of them.Easy there, Beilein!
Spend money, get players, and maybe suck, or spend no money, scrape the bottom of the barrel, and likely suck. Which do you prefer?haha. We need to get more athletic, not less. Illinois can waste money on no results with the best of them.
I really don't care.Spend money, get players, and maybe suck, or spend no money, scrape the bottom of the barrel, and likely suck. Which do you prefer?
Real question is why are all the rats jumping ship at Illinois? Nobody seems to want to play for Underwood for more than a year or two.Gard certainly did
Who is jumping ship outside of some walk-ons and a guy that was told he is being recruited over?Real question is why are all the rats jumping ship at Illinois? Nobody seems to want to play for Underwood for more than a year or two.
They did spend a lot of money on nothing this year.haha. We need to get more athletic, not less. Illinois can waste money on no results with the best of them.
Epps, Melendez, Sky, etc.Who is jumping ship outside of some walk-ons and a guy that was told he is being recruited over?
I don't give a shit about how much we spend/don't spend. Results on the floor are all that matter. This tourney alone should prove that spending $$ doesn't always equal results.Sure, Jan.
Coming from the program that just spend 4 years of TJD to get a single second round appearance, it’s quite rich.They did spend a lot of money on nothing this year.
He was recruited "legally" and it's why we fired the coach that brought him in. Just interesting to see how much Illinois spent on last years roster to achieve nothing after you hyped them all off season. It looks like we're going the mercenary route so will be interesting to see next year, I won't hype, others I know will, but it'll be interesting to see what they can do.Coming from the program that just spend 4 years of TJD to get a single second round appearance, it’s quite rich.
But as I’ve said before, Congratulations!
Whenever you say “achieve nothing” just remember that your team won a game more than that team. TJD won a SINGLE tournament game after 4 seasons😂He was recruited "legally" and it's why we fired the coach that brought him in.

Got that stranglehold on the Ben Affleck title.Look out B1G. Iowa just got another white boy
This tourney has several bought teams play deep into it.I don't give a shit about how much we spend/don't spend. Results on the floor are all that matter. This tourney alone should prove that spending $$ doesn't always equal results.
Also two mid majors in the final four. And plenty of blue bloods out very early.This tourney has several bought teams play deep into it.
That’s it. 3 guys that were in the rotation.Epps, Melendez, Sky, etc.
You lose 5-7 guys every year it seems.
And Wisconsin at home. The new norm or an adjustment to a completely new playing field?Also two mid majors in the final four. And plenty of blue bloods out very early.
Chucky isn't the only one being poached.That’s it. 3 guys that were in the rotation.
1200 guys in the portal last year = 3+ per team. If your program had any desirable players outside Chucky, you might see more too.
The guys leaving for the pros and graduation obviously shouldn’t count. The Skyy Clark’s of the world bounce programs every season. Nothing you can do there except see if it works out or not recruit them. I’d rather take a shot at a 5-star than sit in the in-season thread till the death rattle of the NIT rolls out.
New norm. You guys are so cute.And Wisconsin at home. The new norm or an adjustment to a completely new playing field?
So after watching the tournament this year, your takeaway was you should build your roster like those mid-majors? Interesting.Also two mid majors in the final four. And plenty of blue bloods out very early.
So what’s your argument? Are you advocating to be Blockbuster instead of Netflix? Don’t adapt to them changing landscape and hope and pray the old way works every 4 years?New norm. You guys are so cute.
