It's actually pretty easy.

I don't blame Illinois or Ayo, at all, for being cautious. If it's the right thing for them, it's the right thing for them. They could win this game and they'll still probably finish second, so it's a risk with low upside, and a guy like Ayo can carry you to the Final Four. I would fully support this decision if we were facing the same situation.

Still, it's disappointing, and honestly Coach Brad merits a light troll for this after his comments alluding to our COVID layoff.

Illinois will get the sympathetic whistle tonight. They’ll try to mitigate a key piece to Michigan’s lineup to make the game more even. My guess is that Davis may get a fair amount of pt tonight against Cockburn.

Well, bad.

I'd rather play them at full strength. Win, lose, it's better basketball, a better accomplishment if we win, and better seasoning for the postseason... where we may well have to play them with Ayo in the lineup another time or two.
