You think so? I guess I don't remember hearing it at that time. At least not in reference as the team being toxic.

Only one year since 2004 have we had more draft picks than we had last year. Which would include all Callahan's classes. But whatever makes you feel better. Doesn't change the fact that we won't have that many this year and he was clearly referencing this season. We had a senior laden team with no depth behind them that could maybe get 2 drafted. I think he has a point. Eh, the story last year was we didn't have as much talent as Purdue and that didn't really turn out to be the case. And what Pelini left clearly includes last year's team so it's pretty obvious that not all the struggles can be blamed on talent. And #9Wins used to be guaranteed by the schedule. Now it's apparently pretty impressive. People weren't expecting as many or as high of draft picks as we got last year so I guess I'll wait until it's actually over before casting judgement. There is so much bs in your post. You take artist liberties pretty seriously. I seriously think you are the biggest troll here. I guess this doesn't seem like trolling it just seems like what all of us actually think but that some don't want to say. 9 wins was made fun of...over and over...a monkey could get 9 wins...the schedule is a joke and so on but now last years 9 wins was really impressive... And we really did have posters posting how Purdue had more talent and/or higher ranked players than NU...shoot we still have people pretending like that loss to Purdue was "okay" even though Purdue has like 2 conference wins in the last 4 years. Lets face it...the SECOND that BYU caught the Hail Mary pass...was the same exact second that 9 wins became impressive and it was also the same exact second that the word "toxic" became part of the message boards.

I just finished 13 Reasons Why. I agree with some of your take on it. Most of the characters seemed really clichéd and they tend to cover some things multiple times and tell you stuff you already know. But I couldn't quit watching it. I watched the last 5 episodes last night and didn't get near enough sleep because of it. I'd highly recommend watching it, especially for anyone who has teenagers or works with or teaches them. The show can be addicting in it's own way, that's for sure. I have been reading some other reactions recently and have had a few more thoughts about the show in recent days: I could probably write an essay on what I liked/disliked but those are two pretty critical things for me. It was an excellent show. My problem is that how do I keep that out of the hands of my teenage daughter in a handful of years? That scene was horrifying and for my teenager who could be having a bad day, to see that? Goodness gracious. It's really scary and these are the reasons why we have helicopter parents, etc. in this day and age. Everyone is so afraid of what could happen, because of the things our children are exposed to at an early age. It's scary and I hope I know if/when my kids are going through tough times so that I can be there to help them, without smothering them. I'm feel an extreme amount of pain and am deeply sorry for any parent who ever has to go through something like this. This might help you - here is one mom's take, and she also happens to be a psychotherapist. This woman's 12-year-old daughter wanted to watch it because all of the daughter's friends were. The mom said the daughter could watch it under the conditions they 1) watch it together and 2) talk about it afterwards. The daughter didn't want to so the mom said no, then the mom decided to watch it from a psychotherapist's point of view, and came away with a ton of concerns. I'm not a parent, but in my opinion (and knowing my younger/teenage self), I would've gone to just about any length to watch it if my friends were. I think you're better off offering the same deal to your daughter in the future, or at least requiring to talk about it. The show will probably have a significantly different impact on your daughter since she'll be in the same age range, and as this psychotherapist points out, suicide and death don't register the same way for a teen as it does for an adult. They often can't fully comprehend the finality of suicide. FWIW, I couldn't disagree more with that therapist/mother's take on the show. I got no sense at all of her so called suicide revenge fantasy. However, I did think it unrealistic that a person who had given up caring about life would go to the trouble of telling her story like Hanah did. Agreed

They often can't fully comprehend the finality of suicide. So the mom is mad about a fictional show? I don't understand the question. Should parents not be allowed to be worried/upset/mad/etc. about the content of a show and the way that content is portrayed? If you read the article, 'mad' isn't necessarily the word I'd use to describe her opinion on it. They can be mad about anything they want...she can be upset that Fonzie jumped a shark and that was "dangerous" and she can start a movement to educate young people to not water ski jump over a shark...I'm guessing she won't... Sadly...this is getting more and more press and will make "it" a bigger deal...

This kid, had he not focused on baseball all his life, would be a 5 ⭐️... for Illinois it's probably a good thing that he did focus on baseball.

Promotion? More like getting out before...

Haha!

73 a game? Wow that seems freaking high once conference play starts. Also, Like ColodorkoHusker said...the rotation won't be 11 deep...it will be 7 deep, maybe 8.

We don't have enough talent to only rely on vetrans/transfers. We need every bit of production we can get, and then some. Unless your standards and goals are much lower than mine. The problem with the vets is the lack of scoring. Shoot even 15 from Watson and 10 from Jordy gets you to 25. Which means the other 3 starters need to come up with 40 points.

Yeah, that would be what I would define as decent production.

I remember trying to count the windows and floors to figure out the phone numbers of people in the dorms!

I do think that Morrow will always have foot issues while he plays. I also think that Miles will be very lucky to get any "decent" production out of those freshmen.

Kentucky? Nope Michigan St? Nope Illini!!!!

Sometimes guys have really odd offer lists, like you will see some top 25 guys with only 12 offers. College BB recruiting isn't the same as CFB recruiting; teams tend to stop recruiting kids once intentions and commitments have been made. Yep, they seem to honor it a bit more.

Sometimes guys have really odd offer lists, like you will see some top 25 guys with only 12 offers. I got ya. Yea I usually don't really look at those guys cause I really don't give a squak about the dukes, NC's, Kansas etc... and those schools seem to be the only ones who get those players. I was just looking though and thinking why not? Crazier things have happened. I don't understand how Missouri lands the number 1 recruit in the nation and Alabama gets a top ten recruit, so why not at least throw the offer on the table when we have 2 scholarships available. Butbyew typically don't pay much attention to them. Missouri got their guy because his dad was on the staff at Washington and now he's on the staff at Mizzou Bama probably paid a lot of $$$$$$ for their guy Bama has a HC with major NBA ties...it was a great hire for them when it comes to recruiting. Holy sh#t. I forgot Avery Johnson was their coach So did I!

why do you say that? Because Riley's not the a**hole Pelini was. If Riley had identical records to Pelini he would never be fired as long as SE is in charge. Yep...and if Riley keeps going 9-4 he will stay here until he wants to retire.And because he is a nice guy, fans will still think Riley has the program trending upward. I call BS on that. The fans got tired of going 9-4 under Bo. What was once praise for a fiery coach became an excuse to lynch him. If Riley can't get us over the 4 loss hump in say 5-6 years, nice guy won't matter. It will be the excise to lynch him too. I guess I could see where fans all of a sudden pretend that they don't want "nice" anymore...you know what I mean?

Until he has to scramble.
