POSBANG IN PRACTICE JERSEYS
Looked pretty blue collar when Mo hit the floor and we pushed it ahead for Zak's dunk.
Enjoy the NIT, Maverick.
edit: btw, Morgan was a massive liability every time he was on the floor. Talk about making a guy eat it - he couldn't even hang out there today.
That team was an inspiration today.
Instead of focusing on the challenges, they came out and played with joy, energy and spirit.
Great group of young men, terrific leadership by the seniors and Coach Beilein.
Wow, they are fun to watch these days!
Doesn't get much less white collar than stepping off the plane, out of traffic, into practice jerseys, and onto the court. And that defensive performance wasn't very white collar either. Mid-day early round conference tournament games are forgettable as a rule, but this is legend no matter what happens the rest of the week.

Long live practice jerseys. Does WD have these already??
in all of this, can anyone begin to fathom what that dude was thinking?
Thank you Maverick Morgan, you did us one hell of a solid!
Also, even sour ass Bardo could do nothing but give praise once that ass kicking was over.
three this weekend, then SIX MORE.
in beilein we trust, baby.
Dagger after dagger, lmao
We do need Mo to get his 3 going by tomorrow, though, or that could be a long second day at the office.
Honestly, after everything that's happened, anything else this weekend is gravy.
kids played like they were just so grateful to be there.
I am still so pumped from that game!
MDen jersey numbers 1 and 17. I could see the confusion on Purdue telling each other to guard number 17 right now! Great win! GO BLUE
The turnaround from January to now is amazing. This team is a blast to watch. Let's work our way out of that 8/9 seed this weekend! Go blue!

Here's to an inspired beatdown of Illinois. Both of them!!
Shouldn't that count as two wins?
Bang me!!
I'd like to take this opportunity to wish Maverick Morgan and the rest of the Illinois men's basketball team the best of luck in their upcoming NIT bid.
Oh yeah, just one more thing...who's white collar now, motherf#*ker?
Screw the practice jerseys. Tomorrow against Purdue we'll just run shirts versus skins.
Blow them out and be the team that no one wants in their bracket! WOO HOO!!!
Probably just got John Groce fired after that beatdown win for us. Have fun in the NIT Illini.
was pure magic.
That team was totally cooked after their improbable run to the tri-championship and wasn't headed anywhere in the Tourney, anyway.
Groce getting upgraded from Ohio got us Caris as well as a string of signature beatdowns we've put on him since he's been with the Illini.
...wearing their practice uniform?
what? oh.
Quiet, solid, hard working. NOW HE'S A DUNKING MACHINE!! LOVE IT!!
GO BLUE!!
