Illini Basketball Ranked In Preseason Top-10 For The First Time Since Dee Brown Ruled The World

I'll let Reags explain why their offensive scheme matches up well with Big Ten road match ups when you play an 8-man rotation and rotate your defense on the perimeter after giving a full court check on the inbounds. For now I'm here to tell you guys that this is how you save a fanbase that's reeling in the news that we will always suck at football. Death, Taxes and The University of Illinois football team being a complete dumpster fire. Those are the bedrocks of life. 

Just earlier today I had to go into the vault and pull out some 12 years old footage just to feel alive. I thank Eddie for letting us draft sweet quarterbacks and reminisce. The Good Old Days are very much Old, but equally Good.

This time we're going into the vault to pull out 15 year footage to remind you guys this is the first time since 2005 that Illinois basketball is in the top 10. If you remember that's the same year Illinois went to the championship game and got absolutely fucking hosed by the refs. If you remember it was a time Deron Williams and Dee Brown and Luther Head ruled the universe. A time when Arizona basketball died in the most disgusting miraculous fashion. 

I love hitting you guys with a Full Game but not nearly as much as I love the 2020 Illini basketball team starting the year 8th in the AP poll. That's how you make a statement heading into our biggest athletic season since my puberty. It's been awhile so let's soak this one up. 

Early predictions: Underwood Coach of the Year. Ayo Player of the Year. Ace Miller Freshman of the Year. Kofi defensive Play of the Year. Illinois National Champions. 

Tell me I'm wrong. 

Carl you're wrong. 

Fuck you.
