Without Kofi???… LOL… what?
Underwood can’t even keep the players/coaches he recruited lol
Okay. If Illinois gets Kofi back and Garcia comes we will be ranked higher. I will take that bet.
No, bet me straight up right now who will be ranked higher. No if’s.
It’s significantly more likely they get neither of those players lol
We’ve lost 3 players so far, 1 being to the NBA. And another who’s foreign and wasn’t staying regardless once he got his degree. No Illinois fans are even upset about Miller. Kofi still may come back. Keep up kid.
If making the Elite 8 is so easy, when’s the last time Illinois did it?
You lost 3 five star players lol. Two of which wanted no part of playing for Underwood. You also lost two assistants who clearly wanted no part of being with Underwood.
Why? I never claimed all scenarios we’d be higher ranked.
In a week things will be way more clear.
None of them were consensus 5-stars… casual ass fan.
Go check composite once before you come at me with half baked takes.
And still lost to an 11 seed after playing two coaches that routinely do less with more. Impressive.
Lol should I have said you lost the 3 highest ranked players you could possibly hope to get? I mean your current best recruit is Luke Goode lol. Not a single school in Indiana wanted that scrub.
If it’s so easy, what’s taking Illinois so long to get there? How old were you the last time Illinois made the Sweet 16?
Oregon State made it further in 2021 than Illinois has in 15 seasons. Yes. embarrassing, I agree.
Nobody was impressed.
Not all NCAA runs are created equal.
Some years you go for role players. Illinois will our recruit Indiana in 2022. You obviously don’t keep up with recruiting much based on our “3 5-stars” that left last year…
Gillinois is getting the crowd riled up tonight I see.
How old were you the last time Illinois made a Sweet 16?
Lol so if those were all 4 stars, who were your last 5* players? It’s been 5 years since we didn’t have a 5* lol.
Why would you want only role players when you have a bunch of mediocre players returning?
Hahahah
😂
get this:
@Archetype19 signed up for Rivals April 11th, 2005. Meaning not only did he sign up as a bandwagon fan after their tournament run but they haven’t made a Sweet 16 since 😂.
Archetype has never been able to post about an Illinois Sweet 16 on Rivals.

Did Archetype jinx Illinois’ program by signing up here? It’s debatable.
Yikes. Bragging about stars next to players names.
They must’ve done something right at Illinois considering you thought they were 5-stars lol
They almost got to a sweet 16, so that was pretty impressive lol.
FYI, Tom Crean won the Big Ten twice and got to the Sweet 16 3 times… we consider him to be a terrible coach…
Luke Goode going to lead Illinois to the Final 4 though lol
No chance you joined rivals as a 9 year old, dumbass.
Archetype signed up in 2005 and has never been able to post about an Illinois Sweet 16.
I signed up in 2012 and have gotten to post about Michigan making it 6 times.

Hahahaha that ****ing blows.
Like Goode won’t be anything more than spot minutes for this year.
Bragging about firing Tom Cream is a weird take considering the guy you hired after.
Underwood is better than any Indiana coach not named Knight. Takes time to turn around where Bruce and Groce had us going.
Hahahahaha. No wonder you think people give a shit about random head to head games. You were in diapers the last time you got to experience what winning a couple tournament games is like.
Hahahah
Mike Davis > Underwood
Kelvin Sampson > Underwood
Tom Crean > Underwood….
…
Archie >>>>>>> Groce
Underwood had a decent year with two All Americans where he finished second in the Big Ten and didn’t make the sweet 16. After losing those two All Americans, an additional 5*, and his two best assistants, things aren’t looking great.
Your loser fanbase was here pimping Groce for years the same way you’re pumping Underwood. Now he’s a program black hole that it’s impossible to turn around 🤣
Weird a guy used to so much success is so insecure and needs everyone to say your elite 8 run was some sort of magical run…
It wasn’t impressive
Some did, some didn’t.
First year we got hosed against Miami and should’ve made a sweet 16. All downhill from there. Fortunately Illinois has Underwood now.
