Only relationship to baseball in this post is the fact that James Augustine played baseball at LW Central for a couple of seasons.
I propose we start a collection and provide the Illinois basketball program with some "smart" blazers and slacks and shirts for their travel throughout the country representing the University and the people of the Illinois.
Saw some of the team members getting off the bus to get to their hotel. Looked like the "worst" characters from MTV and other similar programming. "Thugs" would be a generous description.
Navy blue and/or orange blazers would be a nice start. Only need to buy 15 now and add one or two a year.
Fellas....You represent the University and the people of the State of Illinois!
Gees...How embarrassing to be seen as representatives of the U of I!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
