Well, that's one way for a new coach to make his presence known in a conference

    I imagine there are a few U of I message boards in total meltdown mode right now.

    Weber's either full of shit or a complete fucking fool if he believes basketball coaches don't keep recruiting kids who have verbally committed to other schools.

    Verbal commitments and $1 will get you a cup of coffee

    I'm sure Illinois fans will find a way to blame Bruce Pearl for this. :'(

    You reap what you sew, IU. Not only will Sampson not win anything there, he'll leave the program in shambles when he's out in three or four years.

    Fuck Illinois. Dirtiest athletic program in the Big 10.

    Not anymore. That's part of the problem, unfortunately. Bruce Weber, for a big-time college basketball coach, is a nice, honorable guy.

    On the other hand, I eagerly await the future-vacated Final Four appearance Indiana will soon make.
