Bruce Pearl is not a douche…..he’s the biggest douche alive

I agree with you that Demtri has looked good running the pt so far. And I agree with Bruce that he will be key..he will have to master pushing the tempo.

You might say that he’s my new man-crush like Keller is yours

Umm…they aren’t that good. I think that’s the simplest assessment I can give. They don’t have that defensive stopper, and any time they switch up to a zone they look completely lost. It looks as though, at least early on, that their goal will be to outscore teams. I’m not sure how well that’s going to work, but that’s how it looks so far.

Hey paulie… so I’m semi-watching on 360, but I want your thoughts on the illini D… are they just not sure of trusting each other yet, or not interested in the high intensity D we’re used to seeing from a Weber team?

I don’t think I can reiterate enough how impressive this team looks together offensively this early in the season. They look like they have been playing together forever….
