Shaun Pruitt doesn't like the Assembly Hall

Once again, Shaun Pruitt is again telling media people (Terry Bannon of Tribune) he does not like playing in the Assembly Hall. Could the boos from earlier this year still be bothering this fragile Illini team?

"A lot of us personally like road games maybe sometimes as much as home games," senior center Shaun Pruitt said. "We just have to bring our own energy. If we do what we did at Indiana, we'll have some success. We'll have to play very hard. Purdue just beat Iowa, something Michigan State [couldn't do]."

Could it be all the negativity? Could it be fans booing? Could it be fans all being better coaches then Weber?

Hold on to your recruits, cause the door is starting to open for other schools. Once the chink in the armor is exposed, coaches like Samscum are going to open it right up...

Just what we need, a troll from the Hoosier state on this blog!

Seems like Weber is thinking like a fan, since he benched Pruitt tonight for "team issues." Sounds like an official way to describe a bad attitude.

Don't count on stealing more recruits once the sanctions are revealed!

Also, in the interest of civility, I encourage posters to refer to the IU coach as Cellvin Sanctions, unless you want to use his real name.

Samscum is how he is referred to by the Knight section of the Indiana fan base. If you assume most fans support K.S. you would be mistaken.

I said it before, and I will say it again. The similarities between Illinois with Weber and IU with Davis are so close it boggles the mind. In the end, just a couple years away from a runner up NCAA championship, the fans drove Davis and his recruits away and the same may happen with Weber.
