I used to like Underwood, but he's now one of my least favorite coaches in the game.

Not Cockburn's fault he's still in the game, and if he's playing, he should be trying to dominate us. Up to Underwood to pull guys, not the players to stop trying.

Fuel for future fire. Illinois won’t always have this large a talent gap over BJ’s teams.

Wa thinking the same thing. Nothing season ending but miss a couple of games.
No, but we'll still find excrutiating ways to lose to them.
We have not shot it well at all. We really don’t orebound well so this is thr result. Tough matchup, we are going to have a few of these this year. Ball movement hasn’t been as good tonight, bad game and matchup. Move on to the next one.

I was hoping that ankle roll in the first few minutes would be a 40 minute injury.

It’s not about trying…it’s about showboating a defeated opponent. I can’t cheer for a guy who can’t win with class. Seems a grade-A dickhead.
And a cheater to boot.

For those who say Underwood is tempting fate with Cockburn in the game Johnson has his season riding on the court down 20+ Maybe time to get the guys who play 37 minutes a night out

I don't see Cockburn doing anything egregious. It's Underwood who's the dink.

Ignore my other question. He died a while ago it looks like.
I think one of Willis/Loewe/Sutherlin has to be in there for them to function on offense, but it shouldn't be Wilis.
Maybe I missed it, but seems to me like he's just having fun and celebrating. We got our asses kicked, he deserves to celebrate a bit.

I’m not saying take out all rotation guys but Willis being in seems very dumb.
I wonder if Johnson is trying to give Willis a bit of a chance to get going, maybe get some late easy buckets and get some confidence back.

Probably odd to be invested in how the B teams do.

He also got “Shaq” treatment by the refs at an away arena in the B1G. He could act like he had a fortunate night and be a sport about it. I know that’s asking a lot from some people…
It's a reason to watch to the end. I figured to have to do it more this year...and they covered.

Ben Johnson just isn't the man I thought he was.
