This Orange Krush VP actually sounds pretty reasonable compared to the rest of the fan base.

He basically just said Iowa handled it how they should have and didn't throw a fit and act like a victim.

This is a pretty significant game in consideration of BTT seeding. A win obviously also means we hold the tiebreaker over Illinois.

I take a one game at a time approach like Castic, but finishing 6-3 is certainly possible which would lead to a top 4 finish and a double bye.

A 5-4 finish would probably put us in the 5-8 seed range. 1st round bye, winnable game 1, challenging QF.

Ah, he said that they were A boys and girls club. Not THE Boys and Girl’s Club.

That clears it up.
They are pretty much the worst student section in CBB, and this brouhaha confirms it. Misrepresenting yourself as an organization for underprivileged youth so you can buy tickets for an away game is a sleazeball move.

Misrepresenting yourself to get access to tickets is gross.

Then releasing a self-righteous statement, void of all pertinent details, trying to shame Iowa, is stupid. Whomever is "leading" this group is a colossal dipshit.

I don't think Iowa was going to say anything publicly, until the Illinois kids decided to speak.

That basically confirms that the Krush got caught because Iowa was actually planning on doing something kind for the Boys & Girls Club when they showed up.

What colossal douches. And the fact is, they brought this all on themselves by releasing that stupid ass whiny statement.

This is exactly what I told my Illinois buddy yesterday.

They have won 5 in a row, which seems impossible. We won 5 in a row before that.

Nice column trashing Illinois from Gregg Doyel of the Indy Star

Anyway….Mayer takes some terrible shots. He can be streaky so hopefully he’s off tomorrow. Shannon’s good. Hawkins is good. Everything else is pretty meh.

lol, just got an ESPN alert, ‘Illinois fan group apologizes for lying and posing as a charitable organization.‘

Well, this has been a very satisfying lead into the game.

4 of the 5 losses have been away from home and 4 of the them have been by 5 or less. We owe these fuckers.

The last win was Super Bowl Sunday in 2020. Great crowd and intense, fun game. Carver got about as loud as it gets when Connor threw the home run pass and Joe dunked on them. Luka talking shit, CJ (before he became a bitch) telling them to get off his fucking court, Fran taking the team from the handshake line.
