Give this kid a chance… nothing to lose this year.

Jimmy Crooks hit 2 more home runs last night. He’s hitting .302 with 6 HR & 12 RBI’s. 1.063 OPS.

Just a reminder Pedro Pages is hitting .211 with 1 HR & 5 RBI’s. .604 OPS.

Brads kryptonite is Dan Hurley… can’t beat him

You should live here to get the full experience.

Right after I made this post, the Illini changed their coverage on Stirtz. Basketball gods were listening.

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

Not a fan of the Illinois defensive game plan , especially on Stirtz

Fairly confident in saying I have never seen this ever before in a ncaa game. Maybe a middle school game but not at this level. With all the assistants a team has, this should never happen.

Nebraska only had four players on the court 🤯🤯

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

I am not sure this years team can handle the physicality of Michigan at any time. Hope I am wrong down the road .

[Lon Tay @LonTayESPNCU]

I’m old enough to remember when Illinois kicked Michigan’s ASS twice in ‘89

Let them beat us tonight and then we will hopefully get the chance to take care of business in March!!

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

With all that’s wrong in our country, thankful we have USA Hockey to bring us together today….

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

Just an awful defensive performance from the Illini tonight. Give up a layup at the buzzer with a 7’2 guy protecting the rim. Terrible.

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

Yes it did, great footwork to set up the shot. Good luck in post season

@Channel1450com @SpfldClinic @UHigh_GBB This move will make you smile!😃 @grimsleyr @CoachDestinyJ @RoyaltyHoopsEtc @Coach_McDowell1

Playing Slow vs Playing Fast

When I talk to coaches that play a slower pace about their thoughts on fast pace offense, I find it interesting what a lot of them say.

Would love to get your thoughts on this.

[Hoop Herald @TheHoopHerald]

This first dunk made me drop my phone 😳

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

Still use his full court man defensive concepts. Awesome Coach and even a greater person.

Morgan Wootten passed away on this day six years ago. Rest in Peace.

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

Can Illinois ever play some kind of defense at the end of a half or a game to stop giving up layups…

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

Woke up everyone in my house on this one, including the dog.

“We will see you tomorrow night.”

14 years ago today, David Freese delivered one of the greatest moments in World Series history, a walk-off home run to force Game 7.

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

Always enjoyed having him ref my games…. He was one of the great ones.

[BBall Museum of IL @BBallMuseumIL]

With a sad heart we report that IBCA HOF Official Dan Snodgrass has passed. This is also a tough loss for the Basketball Museum of Illinois Board of Directors where his contributions were enormous. Dan officiated the Boys Class A State Finals 3 x including the title game in 2006.

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

Safe to say Mikolas isn’t fooling any of the Cub hitters today. Hope the fans in the outfield stands have batting helmets on

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

I don’t have a dog in the fight , but this has been the worst officiated final four game I can remember. Just brutal both ways. Hope this crew doesn’t see Monday night .

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

@chadhutson7 @TheMasters Could be interested .

[Rodney Grimsley @grimsleyr]

The Illini have went from being a potential #5 seed to a #12 seed that could be the team that upsets a 5, if they get back to being healthy.
