I-64 across the southern part is just WTF.  You have St Louis,  :Carl:, Mt Vernon,  :Carl:, and then Evansville Indiana.  That's it.  Everything else is 10 miles off the exit.  And folks think I-70 is bad from Salina to Limon.  At least you can reasonably pick which side of 80mph :driving: you're most comfortable with.  I think Illinois finally raised I-64 to 70mph. Not too long ago was still 65 :impatient:

Effingham is a city in and the county seat of Effingham County, Illinois, United States. It is in South Central Illinois. Its population was 12,252 at the 2020 census. The city is part of the Effingham, IL Micropolitan Statistical Area. Effingham is home to a 198-foot-tall cross, The Cross at the Crossroads.

eff this [redacted]

Effingham is a city in and the county seat of Effingham County, Illinois, United States. It is in South Central Illinois. Its population was 12,252 at the 2020 census. The city is part of the Effingham, IL Micropolitan Statistical Area. Effingham is home to a 198-foot-tall cross, The Cross at the Crossroads.

The first time I saw this bitch I thought I was dead. For those who haven't seen it, this cross is coming out of a blind curve in the interstate. I was driving from Manhattan to New England, it was nighttime and I was tired as eff, trying to get to Indy. You round the turn on I-70 and this bitch is right there eff in your face, if you're nodding off it will wake you up real quick.

Anyway I've been saying it for years, Illinois is a real shithole. The one metro in the state is an Uber shithole and on the other side of the state lies the armpit of an Iowa shithole and the armpit of a Missouri shithole. In the middle are cows, cops, old crusty fucks, and sex traffickers.

Guys, I’ve watched less Ill bb than Bread has posted on gE this season, but it seems like their guard play is one of the things that is dumb about Illinois. As a fan of good guard play, it seems like we may have dodged a choppy, non athletic, slow moving bullet that is frustrating to watch and prone to turn the ball over.

Same. 17% three point shooter that is only theoretically effective if he dominates the ball all while being a turnover machine. If he is running your offense, then you don't run good offense. If he transfers, we'll be better for it.

Thanks, winters. I'm very impressed with your new coach and his first assistant. Exciting times to be a gopurpleufightonstate fan. As for Illinois, I only watched the two NCAA games this year, BUT I just read some insidery recruiting thread that said we were getting some five star former Kentucky commit guard (Skyy Clark?) and some sand aggie transfer along with the three pretty stud recruits Brad and co. already had lined up this year. Also that Curbelo was probably leaving. So good crap maybe!

Call me when Brad gets past the first weekend in the big dance. Honestly if Brad had the same record at Kansas State that he had the first three years at Illinois, Casper Milquetoast would’ve fired his ass. Schools like K State just don’t accept underachieving mediocrity.

I know you're just bbsing, but in fairness to our guy Brad his third year they were a lock for the tournament. They were 21-10(13-7/4th in the big 10) and ranked #21 before the season was cancelled.  He had it fully turned around at that point and he keeps building on the momentum he created.  oscar put our program in a garbage can and Groce came along and took a crap in that same can.  Brad is out there winning regular season and conference tourney ships and getting a one seed.  He's better than I thought he'd be, particularly recruiting. 

The two second round losses don't mean anything at this point.  He's got great company.  Self, Wright, Donovan, Drew and Bennett all had multiple second (and first) round losses at the schools they won natties at.  If he keeps stacking talented teams and getting high seeds, he'll make some runs.  It's as inevitable as the early exits.

You sour pusses should unbend your dicks and start being happy for a fellow fight on state u purple cat.  I feel confident in saying that if the roles were reversed our guy Brad would have nothing but warm smiles and hearty handshakes all around as opposed to the current cunty insincerity itt.  Black Jack would not approve.  #nohandshakes

AND 6.5 boards, 2.7 assists along with 45.2% from three on 3.1 attempts per game for a certified dude that's 6-10.  :eek:  Apparently his addition will move Illinois from #13 up to #4 in the t-rankings heading into next season, which I think we all know is hugely significant.

Think they have two spots left.  I have been told our guy Brad likes to keep one or two open nowadays.  They just forced one dude out.

Shot 41% from three the last two seasons.  Very experienced.  Cagey even.

Yeah, the thing is I fully expect several of those this season with the hope of maybe finally getting hot in the tournament for a fun little run.  Too many freshmen playing key roles, and the only two seniors are first year in the program and were role players at their previous joints.  Lot to put together in one season to be consistent early on.  Our guy Brad says they're the 2nd youngest team in the power five.  I have no idea if that's accurate, but maybe.  His ass was righteously chapped in the post game presser.  Outside of making the tournament I don't have expectations for this bunch.

I don't know, but everyone that passes themselves off as having connections to the program universally agree he's much worse behind closed doors.  Raging piss baby is his preferred coach em up style.  Can't say it isn't a concern if he wants to be a ggregggg or a bobby, but I have the luxury of being able to walk away if he burns it down like a dumbfuck.  Shannon tweeted some crap about him being the best coach in the country after that presser.  I can't see how that behavior flies anymore from coaches.  I suppose it does until it doesn't.

He got credit for fixing the offense Pullen's Sr year. 

I don't have much of a problem with Underwood's style.  I'd rather win without it, I guess, but as long as he isn't crossing any lines then whatever.  I do think roster turnover could become a bigger problem with the new transfer rules.  I also think nearly every player could play for Tang, whereas only about a third could play for Frank/Undy.

If the Jerome Tang approach to life and coaching youngsters can still get them to play like JYCs then I’m here for it.
If I’m being honest, what I loved about Frank was the style of play he got out of his players, not his fiery temper (liking a coach for being a hot head feels very Iowa/Iowa state-y if that makes sense?) although time will tell if these things are mutually exclusive

I've said this before but I've evolved on Frank over time/age/experience. I totally accepted and excused the way he behaved, but you don't need to behave like him to get players to play hard and it's really insulting to your players to think you do. Berating/verbally abusing/screaming has no place in teaching or improving the lives of kids.

I think having kids has put it in perspective for me more than anything. It’s a natural progression. That said, I do believe Frank genuinely cares about his players, and did back then as well.

You know what? Guys who are winning in the sport now don't act like that. Self, the now retired Jay Wright, Drew, Few, Bennett.

This Bobby Knight bullshit is a dead model, no one does this crap anymore. I was watching UMass last night and Frank wasn't even on camera acting like this. He was on Jim Rome's podcast last week justifying "coaching hard" but frankly, he isn't winning anymore either. Huggins doesn't even have tantrums like Brad seems to have every damn game.

Sometimes in baseball the skipper marches out of the dugout knowing goshdarn well he’s going to get himself tossed. The getting riled up gives them the opportunity to express the frustration to the umps the players are not allowed to do, and lets his players know he thinks whatever happened is horse manure. Sometimes it works and rallies the troops. Part of the game IMHO

I was gonna say. Usually this is directed at the refs. Self will try to secure a T sometimes in the hopes of defibrillating his squad. Doesn't always work, but it usually does.

Yeah I'm just thinking of a guy I worked with who would scream at members of his team all the time but was nothing but nice to me. To me it seemed more sadistic because he could not be a complete bad person when he didn't want to, while a guy with a temper just has a temper. But I can see it both ways.

Post by: nicname on January 05, 2023, 01:32:49 PM
There are times when it is appropriate for a coach/father figure to show righteous anger, and even give admonishment. I think what is being said and why is of upmost importance in this regard. If you’re going to go off, it should be rare and almost directed at the group. It’s almost never appropriate to single put on players individually in public like that.

A non-demonstrative coach can be just vile and hurtful as a blowhard.

Tang was visibly irate at our bench Tuesday night near the end when our guys started giving the horns down, and rightfully so.

In the end, if you have to consistently make a spectacle of blowing up on players, calling out players behind their backs, it shows that generally, you as a coach, haven’t appropriately prepared them for the game.

I’d say routinely blowing up on refs falls into the same category.

Throwing kids under the bus in a press conference is especially self-serving and immature imo.

After therapy and an additional 10 years of being a parent (seeing how useless/harmful it is to dump displays anger on my kids) I could not agree more.

He better start winning again. Usually can only act like such an bad person if you're winning.

You know what? Guys who are winning in the sport now don't act like that. Self, the now retired Jay Wright, Drew, Few, Bennett.

This Bobby Knight bullshit is a dead model, no one does this crap anymore. I was watching UMass last night and Frank wasn't even on camera acting like this. He was on Jim Rome's podcast last week justifying "coaching hard" but frankly, he isn't winning anymore either. Huggins doesn't even have tantrums like Brad seems to have every damn game.
Chris Beard went to a title game and has Texas in the top- oh wait and coaches as angry as any- um, yeah ok

Hey guys!  Just wanted to say great work itt.  I completely agree.  Behavior like that is demeaning to the student athletes and embrassing to the university.  I've never had any respect for an adult who thinks it's okay to behave in a way that society wouldn't accept from a toddler.  Massive disappointment. 

Had only really paid attention to the results of the games the past two years without really watching any games outside the NCAA tournament.  Clueless as to the depths of #notourguy brad's clownery.  Oh well, so much for renewed basketball fandom.  Once you've dropped it enough times for years at time it really becomes meaningless any way.  C’est la vie.

Nice to see the go purples rubbed their slick tang all over those cow people.  #fightonstatehoopsketcats #fuckyea

I feel like that speech is one you give in the locker room. Just comes off like an ass when having a tantrum to the media.

Ain't no way he would be that dismissive of Terrance Shannon to his face. Sure be critical of things he did or didn't do, but making a fart noise about someone leadership? complete horseshit.

Oh man MIR, holy crap.  Had to come back to this one.  It's like he lurks here and took your post as a challenge.  Honor culture style.  That rough rider squared up and did it point blank right on camera.  Guess those itkers weren't blowing smoke after all.  Disgraceful.

Ok full disclosure I’m known in several circles as somewhat of a “public relations guru” and as such I just have a couple of observos (observations):
Alright so those of you with a keen eye might also have noticed that the photo they used here has both coach and players with their backs to the camera. I think this message would be far better received if Brad (or both) were facing the camera, arms open like it’s time for a big ol’ hug. I’m getting chills just imagining it in my brain, wow!

Mr Bred if you can free up the funds to get gE premium you could have arrived at this conclusion about a week ago but I still think you’re doing a great job and if the mods are reading this (they are) I would nominate Mr. Baerd as a gE.c scholarship candidate?

Hey guys it's me Mr bread here with another native American appropriation institution update on the hardcourt!  We're bad again now.  Twist tho!

Brad is totally fine with it.  Not only not inconsolable piss baby mad, but rather he excused it entirely away.  Tired legs, unfair schedule, somebody was sick!  Oh eff!  He actually said they were due for a loss!

They won a whole 4 games before they were due based on the immutable Laws of the Universe to be ruthlessly butt mumped on their home court in front of a full house by a team missing two starters! 

Quote from: Brad now apparently
In a scenario like that you just have to hope they don't tear it too much.

Boy howdy!  The inevitability of rape, I tell you what.  Anyway, congrats on still being good this year.  Enjoy it basketcat fans.

no one in the the big 10’s shaft has been more lubricated than big game brad.  hell. he’s single-handedly keeping the big 10 relevant and from becoming the mountain west.  the big 10 should pay him to stay “home”   ;)

Clams fwiw I’ve heard from several sources that brad cannot wrap his hand around his wet dick and get his fingers and thumb to touch. And it’s not because he has small hands or short fingers iykwim

I dunno. To read the letter from the Orange Krush you wouldn’t have known that 1) they tried to use a charitable organization to get themselves discounted tickets 2) the money they spent on tickets was fully refunded or 3) that those tickets were re-allotted. Liked you’d think those hundreds of seats were just going to be empty.

I don’t have a problem with Iowa raising a flag, they just should have given them the opportunity to pay the correct price, and they should have mentioned it a lot sooner than 3 days before the game

It sounds like they actually are a charitable organization, although if they falsely claimed to be the Boys and Girls Club, then I have no sympathy.

The Orange Krush releasing that letter after they knew they were busted for lying is very telling. The Illinois fans in the replies, making excuses for the lie, are pathetic. I love sports, obviously, but sports fandom can be so weird and toxic. Imagine caping up for college students attempting to get into a sports arena by posing as a boys and girls club.

Then I got to the dets about the Krush presenting themselves as a boys and girls club in order to get cheap group tickets #thumbdown

Too lazy to try to find the truth, but both statements are lacking context, including exactly when Iowa inquired about the Boys & Girls club thing, or whether there was an opportunity to purchase the tickets at full price. Iowa just cancelling because they found out it was for a rival group would be petty af, but that’s what makes college rivalries great.

if the allegations against the orange krush are true- and I need to remind everyone here that i have no reason to suspect that these allegations are not true, then i feel that iowa’s actions were justified

with that said, i have to wonder, who was behind this ticket fiasco?  we all know that someone hatched this idea. 

there’s a lot of people speculating that it was brad underwood that directed orange krush leadership to mislead iowa’s ticket office.  having established brad’s involvement, the real question is- what is the appropriate punishment? i would be shocked if the b10 home office doesn’t address the situation tonight- and i’m hearing a long suspension is pending.

i guess what they say is true-  some tickets are not for sale…

According to Iowa the order was made by "an Illinois Chapter of the Boys and Girls Club." I find it very hard to believe that an order for an out of state boys and girls club, which happens to be from the state of the team you're playing, didn't raise suspensions when the order was made in August. It's certainly plausible but not likely.

If we take Iowa at their word, there are two scenarios in which they could have found out either this week or late last week. Scenario one is that whomever is in charge of that group, at the Iowa ticket office, called them to take care of the last minute details you would need for a group that size and discovered something was up then. Scenario two is much more simple, someone from Orange Krush was running their mouth on the internet and someone affiliated with Iowa saw it.

The dumbest thing about what OK did is that the price for the tickets would have been the same if they were with orange krush or boys and girls club, there's no NFP discount for a Saturday conference game. OK lied because they didn't think Iowa would have sold them the tickets if they were honest, and they very well might be right. If Iowa told them no, in August, they could have just picked another road game. If Iowa really wanted to be nasty, they could have waited until OK got here before they told them they weren't getting the tickets.

I've learned Brad likes a little poop on his tang.  It's how he gets down.  He definitely fucks with it.  He's into crap dick.  Sad, but he's too damn old to get that out of his system now.  This tiger is not changing his crap dick stripes.  I find poop gross, so this is more than a bit distressing.

Yeah a real barn burner.  I had already taken it for granted they were going to get butt mumped.  Losing Epps after he got knocked out in practice the day before the game seemed like it would seal the deal.  They're submediocre on offense when everyone is healthy, but without their starting pg and not having another on the roster I expected the shittiest of shows.  Pleasant surprise to get the win.

It does not appear that he has the recruiting chops that he had when he was at ISU. I may be completely wrong here, but I think that working in the NBA may have lessened his desire to spend the time he needs on the road, or maybe he's just a crap evaluator. I think once he takes hi next job, outside of the power 6, he will be much better, when the level of talent is more equal. oscar Weber had more talent at K-State than he had at Nebraska, that seems inexcusable.
