SleepyWhiteSox Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 18, 2015 -> 08:36 PM) Louisville's point guard was suspended tonight. Good thing Wayne Blackshear stepped up with his 19 minutes of 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, and 5 fouls. Epic. Still remember going to see him at Curie before he transferred to Morgan Park and him looking like an NBA-bound beast. Blackshear, Abrams, Shaw, Randle, Henry, Thompson, Marshall, Henley...soo much hype for years for the Chicagoland Class of 2011 and soo much bust. Davis doesn't count since he came out of nowhere. Boatwright has done just fine. And Kaminsky has developed nicely (awesome game at uic pavilion when benet beat Parker and simeon). But yeah, gotta love Chicago high school hoops.

I don't think he is too high on any draft boards though. He should stay another year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackshear at Curie to me looked disinterested and was alway pouting when I saw him. Don't blame him since his coach was a clown. He was good at MP but him and Irvin there always ran their mouths and couldn't back it up. They may have won a city tournament, can't remember, but don't think they got out of a regional in the state tournament. He always seemed like a huge question mark to me despite being an explosive high school player just because of attitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before last night, I didn't think much of him, but yeah, that was a dominate PG performance. Felt UNC choked that game away. Up 7 with 90 secs left, you should be able to hit FTs and take care of the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Now there's a quality road win for ISU. Now have road wins over two ranked B12 teams. Looking better. Jameel McKay is the real deal. At Texas Saturday will also be a challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprising that he left or where he went. My point was that with all the hype those guys got even going into high school, then their first couple of years, they sure fizzled out.

I just mean that even if he was intent on taking a 3 himself, he could've taken a better one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan99 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Aaron Cosby no longer with the Illinois basketball program. What an incredible disappointment. Two years of proven production at a major conference including a really strong sophomore year and he was horrible this year and didn't even make it through the season.

Good riddance. edit: Derek Piper @DerekPiperBSH 37s37 seconds ago Per a source, Aaron Cosby wanted to leave #Illini in December. Felt situation had shot his confidence. Suspension was cherry on top.

Sometimes I feel like people get way too excited about transfers. Sure sometimes teams strike gold, but a lot of the time, there is a reason why the school is letting the kid transfer in the first place.

When it is a kid like Alex Legion who hasn't proven anything yet and wasn't productive at his prior stop there is a reason to be very skeptical. If it is someone moving up a level or down a level there is reason for skepticism. When you have a guy who was a proven player at the high major level there is no reason not to expect him to be productive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) Michigan inexplicably takes down OSU in Ann Arbor. And Iowa up 30 over Nebraska, ON THE ROAD. I don't think ANY team has been that dominant in Lincoln all season. So beat UNC in Chapel Hill, OSU twice, have MI down 20+ points in Ann Arbor and pin one of their worst home losses under Beilein, wipe out Maryland by double digits and ahead by 20+ in the first half...but lose at home to MINN and at Northwestern to ruin all positive momentum. What an inconsistent team. They'll probably lose to Illinois at home, win at PSU, lose at IND and beat NW by 30+ at home and then lose in the 2nd round of the B10 tourney and be firmly on the bubble. In many ways, that Illinois at Iowa game next week becomes another play-in game for the Illini, like tonight's game against MSU. Only two of Illinois, Purdue and Iowa will make it imo. Although OSU now is 8-6 too with that inexplicable loss to MI. Parity. Edited February 22, 2015 by caulfield12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
