Illinois future big ten champs
I-L-L
So good that Shannon's first two touches were assists, rather than shots. I hope that means the high level of team play they developed in his absence will continue, without too much reliance on his scoring.
So good to see Shannon back. This Illinois team is special and I see them playing in the Final 4 in April!
Best chance to win it all this year.
Shannon owned that game, what an impact when Rutgers got within 4
great to see terrence shannon back after all that nonsense, yall have a super exciting team. In the long run it may have been better for the team that he was out for a bit because it really let domask and gurrier come into their own and theyre probably better for it now that terrence is slotted back in. they got four stars now at least
I Love My Illini now go Beat Northwestern like they Stole something!
Good to have TSJ back and when the Illinois basketball can function like this, I'm sure they can beat Purdue at home in March.
Nice to see they let the (alleged) rapist play
The ncaa is so done bro. When a player can get a restraining order on the institution and play right in their face and they can’t do anything. Are the rules legal at all? Makes you think. Who are they shutting out who they don’t have a right to do so
