DISQUS

Inside the Hall: Jamar Smith violates probation, now a wanted man

    HAHA great pic! Maybe if they kick him off the team we'll actually be better than the Illini again in the big ten!! Wishful thinking though ...

    I responded to bahickma below, but feel I also need to state that I agree with you as well:)
  • bahickma · 1 year ago
    Man, this is unfortunate and really sad. I hope this kid gets his stuff together and everything works out for him in the end.
  • BGleas · 1 year ago
    I agree. I want Illinois and especially Bruce Weber to be at the bottom of the Big Ten, but not this way. Hopefully the kid gets his act together, although I do agree that Weber definitely has to cut ties.

    even though I hate bruce with all the passion in the world, I feel depressed when any kid does actions to hurt a team. i hope he someday gets his stuff in order, and betters himself down the line.

    I feel bad that it's had to end up this way for Smith, but the fact that Illinois has allowed him to remain on the team after what originally transpired is unbelievable to me.

    If anyone is raising their hand, I'm chopping it off...freaking Illini
  • HoosierSmitty · 1 year ago
    let me clarify...I do not feel sorry for Illinois...for the kid, that's a different story...i echo the sentiments of others, and hopefully he can get his act together
  • jgongora86 · 1 year ago
    I know we had our problems but other than a few inhales of marijuana, our players never commited crimes that hindered others. Illinois should have tried to help the kid out instead of finding ways for him to play on the team. When IU sacrifices playing time and overlooks a kid who really need help, I will stop watching IU basketball without any regret.

    That's what happens when Brucey recruits all his players from the United States Penitentiary in Marion. Take note of all the orange jumpsuits in the student sections at Dis-Assembly Hall in Champaign, that's not a coincendence. Have you ever heard their chants, like orange crush (the official prison beverage) or their favorite, thug life. Really, who cares about Prison Shank University though, in 3-4 years, Coach Tom Crean will have the IU program eclipsing them again, and Brucey will be coaching at Chipola Junior College.

    This is exactly why I am grateful for a TC around hoosier country, he's got the right stuff man.
  • msdiu81 · 1 year ago
    Sorry to hear about this. We have had our share of problems, so I guess I'm happy no more bad news has come from IU and the problems are at another school this time.

    Not sure how this fits in with the whole "Indiana basketball blog" theme.
  • TomCoverdaleIUHero · 1 year ago
    This is completely off topic but i was playing call of duty 4 an xbox and some1 told me that IU will never ever win a National Championship again and that players no longer want to play for IU way off topic but it really really angered o well....



    SORRY BRUCE WEBER AH HAHAHA

    Don't you think that high level news of conference competitors is relevant to IU basketball?
  • NC Fat Boy · 1 year ago
    I think the subject is relevant, but the editorial comment at the bottom is unnecessary.

    Any situation such as this is not a positive for the image of the Big Ten and is unfortunate.
  • BGleas · 1 year ago
    Can't argue with you there.
  • NC Fat Boy · 1 year ago
    When you live on Tobacco Road rather than the heart of the Big Ten Conference, the perspective changes and becomes more conference oriented. Y'all don't know what it's like in ACCville.... :-)
  • BGleas · 1 year ago
    Ummm, I live in Maryland...ACCville:)

    I miss the days of taking off my shirt and getting drunk with a bunch of dudes.
  • hoosier07 · 1 year ago
    HAHA! I guess that's how they do things in Champaign ...
