    Perkins to Mizzou

    They’re paid what it takes to keep someone with their resume from going to a competitor … not some grand conspiracy.

    Two Kentucky boosters have just pledged $4 million for basketball NIL. Our AD has to put pressure on boosters and alumni for NIL...

    John Deere might be a possibility even though it’s in Illinois, but State Farm? It’s just down the road from Champaign and literally bankrolled Illinois’ last multi-million dollar arena renovation. I get they supported Caitlin Clark, but come on … everyone knows she was a uniquely transcendent...

    Illinois vs. Clones

    A-L-L-E-G-E-D-LY And I’m bewildered how anyone can read the available evidence and not determine that it’s exceptionally weak and more than shaky enough to presume him innocent until proven otherwise, Try to honor his rights in this country, eh? 😉✌🏻

    Washington Post story on Kim Mulkey

    I always wonder how much of a tool you have to be to enthusiastically bring up a divisive political opinion like this COMPLETELY unprovoked while discussing a totally different topic. 🤦🏼‍♂️🙄

    ELI5, how is Terrence Shannon allowed to play?

    Because he’s innocent until proven guilty in this country and a federal judge ruled that Illinois had to legally and meaningfully treat him that way?

    So Boyz….a moral/ethical Question for you all……..

    Let’s be real, too … Iowa/Illinois has been a better basketball rivalry than Iowa/ISU for going on 5 years now.

    "Their character is high..."

    There is zero evidence besides an accusation that Shannon is guilty of anything, and the police affidavit is an paper thin and contradictory. The man deserves to be treated as innocent until proven guilty, ESPECIALLY considering the total lack of circumstantial evidence. Unfortunately, most of...

    Alabama just signed Oats to a huge extension.

    This line is stupid enough when hacks on ESPN repeat it … it’s twice as dumb with our own conference’s fans parrot it back. Underperform?? Compared to what expectations?! You can’t shit on the league all year and then say March Madness proves it’s overrated. That’s having your cake and...

    Regular Season or Tournament title?

    They’re both awesome, and I have no tolerance for BTT haters … it’s such a fun event. With that said, “Big Ten champions” has always and will always refer to the regular season champ 90% of the time. It’s much more meaningful and impressive.

    What do you think the pointspread is going to be on Sunday?

    I think it will be closer than that. I saw it was Iowa's first sellout of the year, and the Hawkeyes are playing for their NCAA Tournament lives. While there will be a decent number of Illini fans like usual, I think the 6:00 pm start time will keep some away ... in other words, I think the...

    Come Sunday

    A federal judge literally told Illinois it had to treat Shannon as any other student athlete, as he has been convicted of exactly the same number of crimes as you have. Sitting an All American would quite clearly be violating the judge's orders, as there is zero reality where Shannon is ever...

    Down goes Illinois!

    Shannon says emphatically with no qualifiers he is not guilty. And the details of the case appear … pretty weak. If an Iowa player was accused of something and there was very little evidence he did it, I would not expect your fans to consider him guilty until proven innocent and for you to boo...

    Average Attendance for MBB = 9,712. Scanned Tickets Ave = 5,202 (35% of 14,998 Capacity)

    Yeah, I REALLY enjoy going to Carver for away games because there isn’t a bad seat in the house and it gets surprisingly loud, but students ringing the court or at least closer to the actual players is just simply the way to go, IMO… Ideally, you have your students ring the court AND be...

    2023-24 Big Ten MBB Discussion Thread

    The federal judge ruled that Underwood should treat him as any other player who hasn’t been convicted (or even indicted) of anything. So, Underwood sitting him (presumably because he assumed he’s guilty without any verdict?) would be defying the ruling pretty blatantly. Also I’m sure you look...

    You’re probably right, but it’s always the fans whose teams look awful who are screaming this the loudest. 😂

    Said the same thing about Kofi myself two years ago … guy would have been drafted top ten a few decades ago. However, the NBA has changed so much. Athletic wings are gold now.

    Come on, man. We gotta save the ginger label for those who truly have no soul like Goode! Domask is more blonde. I’ll give you that he might only have like 75% of a soul, though.

    Northwestern

    Yep, exactly. Marquette, Tennessee and Gonzaga all have great guard play, and Purdue beat them all. I get we all have March Madness PTSD when it comes to the Big Ten, but as recently as three Tournaments ago the conference overperformed and had multiple teams make deep runs. Each season is a...
