[Dogdeacon]

Rooting for nothing but upsets now.
Go Loyola!!
Go you high-scoring Badgers!!!
Not taking that to Syracuse
Go Pikiell!
I hope Florida doesn't get Oral
Go North Texas!

 

[Jaker]

Lets all watch Kofi and just enjoy what a true big looks like.

 

[BugsyCT]

Loyola off to a good start - could be a fun game to watch

 

[Jaker]

LOyola comes out swinging!!

 

[Jaker]

KId from Loyola doing a great job against Kofi

 

[Jay-Bone]

Love the big boy matchup of Kofi vs Krutwig. Hope neither get in foul trouble and they duke it out.

 

[Jaker]

LOyola is good!

 

[Jay-Bone]

Krutvig just keeps bouncing in and out.

 

[Jaker]

Krutvig reminds me of Ed Nelson, a scrapper!!

 

[BugsyCT]

Very impressed with Loyola - solid team.

 

[Jaker]

Kofi getting warmed up

 

[navery12]

The Kofi miss isn't as disappointing now that we have Sanogo, but I really wish we got Curbelo

 

[Jaker]

Loyola a team full of workhorses

 

[Vuce]

Krutwig every bit as good as Kofi today. Went beast mode on Kofi

 

[Jaker]

Krutwig having a monster game, LOyola firing on all cylinders

 

[BugsyCT]

Getting into the danger zone for Illinois

Krutwig has 18 11 and 5. Dude is dominating the game and has since the opening tip. What a player.

 

[Jaker]

Kofi can make freethrows atleast. LOL

 

[Drew]

Is Krutwig a NBA guy? He’s obviously so talented but his skill set is so unique and he’s got virtually zero NBA level athleticism

He has no outside game so no.

 

[Vuce]

Krutwig will make a ton of money overseas for a long time. And he will always have this game dominating Kofi on his resume

 

[Jaker]

Illinois went away from Kofi for like 10 minutes-15 minutes which was a huge mistake

 

[ASweet3781]

Can the Big East replace DePaul with Loyola Chicago?

 

[Drew]

Their guard play has been non existent but this game totally exposed Kofi’s limitations. Krutwig is such a bad matchup for him, brings him away from the paint and is an incredible passer. That’s been the difference in the entire game is the bigs for Loyola getting the ball at the elbow and everyone else cutting off that

 

[Vuce]

Kofi ain’t doing anything on defense to stop Loyola. They are doing whatever they want

thats the great ball movement from Loyola, tough to stop, alway on your heels

 

[Vuce]

Can the Big East replace DePaul with Loyola Chicago?

Not sure you are going to want that after Loyola graduates the 6 seniors on this roster unless they decide to come back?

 

[Vuce]

thats the great ball movement from Loyola, tough to stop, alway on your heels

And Kofi isn’t up to it.
He’s immobile on defense
Kofi also got used by Krutwig on defense 1 on 1
