last thing you want is an unmotivated team...

[jayc88]

bookmakers will adjust their lines

[jjgold]

No clue here

Coach Webber will not let it happen though

[Iwinyourmoney]

I bet coach is pissed the players are saying this stuff

[pdx107]

bookmakers will adjust their lines

if not they have some serious issues, an unmotivated team is the last thing you could ever possibly want...

[jjgold]

Any underclassmen that does not try in game will never ever play again for Illini

Throw out IWin's theory NOW

[Brock Landers]

Guys, Illinois is one of the best teams in the NIT, IF they want to win, they will no problem. This 1st game should be laid off the see the effort, they couldn't play at Assembly hall as a 1 seed because circ du solei has the place booked for the week LOL

[flyingillini]

Dumb advice, illini rolls! I am betting them huge!

[suckerforparlays]

dammmmmm. good post man

[EaglesPhan36]

Pretty sure this is what all the big programs that end up in the NIT use this tournament as - a build-up for next season. I think the interesting one to watch is North Carolina. Roy Williams did a horrible coaching job this season, but if he's worth a F ... he should motivate his young kids to use this as a momentum builder for next season.

weber has no voice left

Illini players playing mind games with books to adjust lines in their favor. Since their families are not going to NCAA what a better gift to give to daddy than covering a -6.5 spread with his gambling money.

Hank Webber?

[nobs]

They will probably win by 20

[THEGREAT30]

Illinois should not be in NIT, NIT should be reserved for Lehigh, East Tenn State, Vermont, North Texas, and so on, good day

[nobs]

Just disappointed on not making the NCAA. You say things that later on you realize you didnt mean.

[talnted]

good info. thanks. will stay away

[awholelottalumps]

Will see if your right on this one.

[collector]

I bet coach is pissed the players are saying this stuff

I know what you mean I WOULD BE PISSED

[robmpink]

again like someone said, they, Vegas, will adjust if they perceived it to be true.

[callim105]

thanks for the heads up, you saved me big time. biiiiig timmimmememe

[Bigmikesm]

I'm thinking they are gonna try and make a point for their case of playing in the ncaa tournament. They will come out strong and may even win the NIT.

[Sawsi]

I could see the Illini playing real good in the NIT. I'd watch out for them.

exactly. How bad would it make him look if UNC cant even advance high in the NIT

[talnted]

The more I think about it, I think the Illini will still show up. Despite what they have said. It is embarrassing to lose in the opening round.

[Patrickz0rs]

I don't think Illinois shows up. PASS
