Illini Basketball

After an illustrious four years at the helm of the Illini basketball squad, Demetri McCamey is featured in a film called “Meechi Movie” with exit interviews from himself and his mom. No joke.

Illini seniors went out with a bang against bitter basketball rival, Indiana. They won handily. It helped that the Hoosiers are simply terrible. On to the Big Ten Tournament.

After another kinda-close performance against another Big Ten team, this same old storyline is starting to get, well, old.

Lewis Jackson, a Decatur-bred point guard playing for Purdue, goes on the record about how he got all up inside the Illini’s Brandon Paul. That and more on the way later in the day.

Illinois avoided an apocalyptic scenario by handling the Iowa Hawkeyes at the Hall last night. What comes next, remains to be seen.

Mike Davis: “I have a shoe fetish.”

With a thick tension in the air, and a lead that dwindled from thirteen to one with just seconds left, Weber maybe the proper adjustments and pulled out the tight win.

With a feared impending collapse of Illini basketball, Rob gets the goods on what the players actually think about Weber’s post-game comments, as well as why they are not divided, despite what you might have read.

Just as quickly as Illini were off the Bubble, they are right back on with a big home loss to Purdue. That report, recruiting news, and video of Deon Thomas, and what Brian Randle likes to eat, inside.
