Not even close. White with dark hair is the only similarity. If you have that much trouble ID'ing someone in a well lit situation, just think how hard it must have been to make a positive ID on TJ in a dark crowded bar after some drinks and waiting until the next day...

Agree on your three teams. I'd add northwestern.

I'm not sure how much people realize this but our historic season in 2005 was helped by the fact that it was a pretty down year for the big ten.

Knowing that I'm sure really takes some of the shine off it, doesn't it?
6 of 11 won 20 or more games...5 of 11 made the tournament...3 of 11 made the elite eight...2 made the final four...and Illinois was the best team in the country. It's tough to send more than five teams to the NCAA's when one of the teams beat everyone twice!

No. That team was great. Not our fault if you think the rest of the league was down which it wasn’t.

Indy, You seem to be in the know as far as high school talent. Where would you rank Riley in the 2024 class? I know as far as the 2025 class most have him in the top 10 so I was curious your take on his 2024 ranking?

Or other opinions appreciated also......just curious!!
