Sean May was not who he is now.

 

Hindsight is 20/20

 

Im sure we can dig up alot of your false/dumb posts.

 

BTW, Duke won that one.

i'd be shocked if you couldn't

 

i just felt it was appropriate for the moment

Yeah, Sean May was pretty bad early this year, and most of last year. He was like this big clueless giant out there.

 

I haven't been saying anything but good things about him for the last 2 months or so.

 

If I wrote that again now....well, then I'd be dumb.

 

If your point is simply that May has improved rapidly, or rediscovered his game, then I agree completely.

i guess that's the point i was subconciously making

 

i just was surprised at the difference between then and now

woohoo. this is awesome. finally got back from the dome, what a game. and sitting in a crowd of annoying as f*** Illini fans makes it that much more fun. who woulda thought that this senior class would survive a season from hell, an NIT trip, a coaching change and make it here

 

ive got some pictures comin soon

Congrats to Carolina and their fans, they were the better team. Both team played 1 good half and 1 bad one, and it came down to a couple late plays and Carolina made them.

 

I don't blame anything for us losing other than we weren't good enough. I heard some people blame the refs, but that's lame and unfair. I heard some people blame Bruce, and they are all morons. I even heard some people blame our players, which is the worst of them all.

 

This Illini team had more heart than any i've seen in any sport. If your asking me, we weren't one of the 10 most talented teams in the nation this year, yet a combination of the coaching of Bruce Weber and the effort and execution of some of the toughest college kids i've ever seen almost took us to a National Title.

 

It does hurt to a degree that we lost, but I can't be any more proud of the players, they gave all they had and that's all a fan can ask. These guys will forever be my favorite Illini team, even if we are lucky enough to be National Champions someday.
