07:51 AM ET 02.12 | While Internet message boards, Twitter and the Assembly Hall concourse after games tell a different story, Illinois coach Bruce Weber said the team's recent skid hasn't influenced the way fans have treated him. The Illini (16-8, 5-6 Big Ten), who play at No. 22 Michigan on Sunday, have only seven regular-season games and the Big Ten tournament to sway the NCAA tournament selection committee of their worth. Weber might have only as long to impress athletic director Mike Thomas. Thomas said he will not make a decision on Weber's future until the end of the season, which he noted is his protocol for all coaches.

This can't even serve as a pic thread since 0-6 is cruising the Caribbean!

Unless someone else picks up the slack!

Well, the bright side (if you can envision one) is that the large white grubs often found in pucky piles are awesome fish bait.

My endeavors equate with a doctorate at NMSU. ;)

No truer words have ever been spoken. Probably two Phds. One in Animal Science and another in Plant Science.

Could also include that school in Bryan-College Station in that group.

Did you hear about the Aggie that transferred from NMSU to Texas A&M? The school IQs both went up.

Sorry Mr Thomas, lost another one to a ranked opponent. No sweat, at least the fans don't mind.
