Just saying! It’s a tough day- #RealHooper ILL

Forever an Illini legend. Hold your head high, Dee. 🫡

Now you run Hollywood. Show them how it's done. Wishlist 'Hollywood Animal' on Steam NOW!

I remember it well ! Was wishing a couple of those late 3’s would have gone in !! Plus Augustine playing less than 10 minutes didn’t help!

You are the best Brian. Keep being great. ILL

Did everything you guys could. Will always be thankful to you guys for how loyal you were and what you did for the program. Gave us fans some amazing memories that will be hard to beat 🔶🔷

This is what we Illini fans have had to deal with. And if you also remember 1989… The best team twice in 2005 and 1989, did not win the natty. But one day when we do win… nobody except us will understand any of this. And that’s okay. ILL

Still can't believe the refs took Augie out of the game, but let that obese center for UNC maul you guys.

We love you Dee! Met you in Dallas 15 years ago and told you I was illini and you treated me like family! Never forget that! You are a real one! Legend always!

No doubt. You are.

Was there cheering you on with my brother. Still hurts for us too but what an incredible ride you gave us! Also…you’re doing great! Bought this at one of the parties outside the arena. #deelicious

Come home and finish unfinished business. I-L-L !!!
