Let the Illini Madness Begin!
That's enough pig skin...it's time for round ball! Tomorrow night, the Illinois Fighting Illini Men's Basketball Team will
tip-off the year by hosting Illini Madness on Friday night at the Assembly Hall. Head Coach Bruce Weber has been looking forward to it
for many months. For those of us outside Champaign, we will be able to watch the festivities at
the official site.
Neil Milbert at the Chicago Tribune wonders what this year's team will look like without
Brown and Augustine. Illini Wonk will take it one step further and ask how the team will do having lost four NBA draft picks and a CBA All-Star over the past two seasons? According to the Daily Illini, there are no shortage of players
ready to make an impact.
