State Farm Center

Illinois has an outstanding home in State Farm Center. Known as Assembly Hall from its construction in 1963 to 2013, the iconic arena was renamed State Farm Center on April 29, 2013, with the announcement of a 30-year, $60 million naming rights agreement. State Farm Center is undergoing a major renovation, which began following the conclusion of the 2014 season, dubbed the Illinois Renaissance. The $169.5-million project will include a renovated seating bowl and the addition of four levels of premium seating; improved restrooms, concessions and a team store; air conditioning and many other amenities. Construction is occuring around each Fighting Illini basketball season in order to avoid displacing the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teams, and the project is scheduled to be completed in the fall of 2016. The historic building opened on March 2, 1963, and continues to attract attention for its design and construction. Four hundred feet across, it at one time was one of only two edge-supported domes in the world. The roof is supported by 614 miles of one-quarter inch steel wire wrapped at the base of the dome under intensive pressure. The architect was Max Abramovitz, a distinguished University of Illinois alumnus. Illinois opened play at State Farm Center on March 4, 1963, with a 79-73 victory over Northwestern. Since that first game, the Illini have accumulated a 564-155 (.784) record. Illinois has sold out a total of 251 games at State Farm Center and has ranked in the top 25 nationally in home attendance for 36 straight years, including in the top 17 for each of the last 15 seasons. Fans help turn State Farm Center into a sea of orange for every Illini home game, with practically every person in attendance proudly wearing orange. That, combined with the Orange Krush student cheering section surrounding the court, gives the Illini one of the best home court advantages in the country. In seating capacity, State Farm Center ranks among the great arenas of major cities and is the largest arena in the state of Illinois outside of Chicagoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s United Center. State Farm Center has nearly 16,000 permanent seats, but when portable chairs are placed on the floor for an in-the-round performance, there is potential for up to 17,200, depending on the size of the stage. Seating capacity for Fighting Illini basketball is 17,085 for the 2014-15 season.

The 45-station Fighting Illini Sports Network brings Illinois basketball to fans across the state and Midwest with Brian Barnhart and Jerry Hester calling the action from courtside. Barnhart is in his 13th season as the “Voice of the Illini” after a long stint in professional baseball, including two years as the play-by-play voice of the Anaheim Angels. Barnhart serves as the voice of the Fighting Illini Sports Network, providing play-by-play coverage of football and men’s basketball and as the host of the statewide “Tim Beckman Show” and “John Groce Show” callin programs held weekly during the season (Tuesdays at 7 p.m. for Beckman, Mondays at 7 p.m. for Groce). A native of nearby Tolono, Barnhart graduated from Unity High School and Liberty University before beginning a 15-year career in professional baseball in 1986. He served as the play-byplay voice of the Lynchburg Mets and Salem Buccaneers before moving up to the Oklahoma City 89ers, the Class AAA affiliate of the Texas Rangers, from 1988-94. Barnhart did high school football and other sport play-by-play for 11 years and was also the voice for Oklahoma Baptist basketball from 1992-94 and Oklahoma City Blazers minor league hockey in 1993. From 1996-98, he handled news, sports and play-byplay at WWLS in Oklahoma City. In 1998, Barnhart was named the play-byplay announcer for the Angels and spent two full seasons with the American League club before returning to the Champaign-Urbana area in 2000. He currently is a news and sports announcer at WDWS-AM 1400 in Champaign.

During the 2007 season, Barnhart was honored by the Illinois Broadcasters Association with the Silver Dome Award for Best Sports Play-by-Play for his call of Illinois’ football upset of No. 1 Ohio State. He received the Silver Dome again in 2008 for his call of the Illini’s ninth straight Braggin’ Rights win over Missouri, and earned a third-straight Silver Dome in 2009 for his playby-play description of Illinois’ school-record come-from-behind win at Clemson. Barnhart was named the 2008 Illinois Sportscaster of the Year by the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association, becoming just the second downstate sportscaster to win the award since 1959. Jerry Hester is now in his 10th season serving as the expert analyst on Fighting Illini Sports Network men’s basketball broadcasts. Hester started at Illinois from 1994-98 and was a key member of the UI’s 1998 Big Ten Championship team. Following graduation, he played professionally in Poland, England and Italy. Hester is currently a financial advisor with The Downey Group. The statewide Fighting Illini Sports Network is managed by Learfield Sports, including distribution, sales operations, affiliate relations and programming. Fighting Illini Sports Network programming includes Illinois football, men’s and women’s basketball, volleyball and baseball, along with the “Illini Today” series.

The Coaching Staff

Head Coach JOHN GROCE “Why can’t we become the standard of excellence among those teams in the Big Ten competing for championships? Why can’t we do that consistently here? The answer is, we can.” –– John Groce at his introductory press conference (March 29, 2012) John Groce enters his third season in charge of the Fighting Illini program in 2014-15. He has led the Illini to consecutive 20-win seasons and postseason appearances in his first two years in Champaign, owning a combined record of 43-28.

the GROCE file Born Sept. 7, 1971, in Muncie, Ind. Hometown Danville, Ind. Family Wife, Allison; Sons, Conner and Camden Education Taylor University B.S., Mathematics, 1994 playing Experience 1991-93 Taylor University Coaching Experience 1994-96 Assistant Coach Taylor University 1997-2000 Assistant Coach North Carolina State University 2001 Assistant Coach Butler University 2002-04 Assistant Coach Xavier University 2005-06 Assistant Coach Ohio State University 2007-08 Associate Head Coach Ohio State University 2009-12 Head Coach Ohio University 2013Head Coach University of Illinois

Groce guided one the youngest and most inexperienced teams in the nation last season to 20 wins and a No. 2 seed in the NIT, as the Illini narrowly missed a trip to the NCAA Tournament. Entering the year with nine newcomers and returning just three rotation players, Groce emphasized defense to his young squad and it delivered, finishing the season ranked 11th nationally in defensive efficiency. Illinois won 13 of its first 15 games, highlighted by thrilling wins at UNLV, in the Braggin’ Rights game over No. 23 Missouri and against Indiana in overtime on New Year’s Eve. The Illini then played some of their best basketball late in the season, a staple of Groce’s teams throughout his coaching career. Illinois won four of its last five regular season games, with three of those victories coming on the road at Minnesota, at No. 18 Michigan State and at No. 24 Iowa. The Illini added wins over Indiana in the first round of the Big Ten Tournament and at Boston U in the first round of the NIT to finish the season with six victories over its final nine contests, with both postseason losses coming by just one point apiece.

Illinois recorded two more top-10 wins during conference play in one of the most difficult seasons in Big Ten history. The Illini defeated No. 8 Ohio State on Jan. 5 by 19 points, the UI’s largest margin of victory over a top-10 opponent since 1964. Then on Feb. 7, Illinois garnered national headlines with a thrilling last-second home victory over No. 1 Indiana. The Illini won it at the buzzer on a layup by Tyler Griffey, leading to a court storming celebration as Illinois defeated a No. 1-ranked opponent for just the third time in school history. The Fighting Illini earned a No. 7 seed in the NCAA Tournament and defeated No. 10 Colorado in the Round of 64 as Groce improved his record in the opening round of the Tournament to 9-0 during his coaching career, and 3-0 as a head coach. In addition to the success on the court, Groce also made an immediate impact on the recruiting trail, signing a top-25 ranked class in less than eight months on the job in Champaign.

Groce directed the Illinois program to a number of achievements during his first year – including a 23-win campaign that marked a six-win improvement from the UI’s previous season – culminating in an NCAA Tournament appearance and subsequent victory to advance to the Round of 32. Illinois won its first 12 games in 2012-13, equaling the sixth-best start in school history and matching the best start ever for a first-year UI coach. Included in that stretch was a dominating performance in Hawaii as the Illini captured the school’s first-ever EA SPORTS Maui Invitational championship. Illinois also recorded arguably the most impressive win of college basketball’s pre-conference season, winning at No. 10 Gonzaga by double digits. The Illini spent eight weeks ranked in the Top 25, Fighting Illini head coach John Groce with his wife, Allison, reaching as high as No. 10 in the national polls. and sons, Conner (left) and Camden.

Head Coach JOHN GROCE GROCE’s career coaching record HEAD COACH

University of Illinois Overall/Conf. (Finish) 2012-13 23-13 / 8-10 (7th) 2013-14 20-15 / 7-11 (8th) Two Years 43-28 (.606) / 15-21 (.417) Ohio University 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11 2011-12 Four Years John Groce has led the Illini to 20-win seasons and postseason appearances in each of his first two years in Champaign. The Illini advanced to the third round of the NCAA Tournament in 2013 and the second round of the NIT in 2014.

Groce was named the 17th Fighting Illini men’s basketball coach on March 29, 2012. He arrived at Illinois after four seasons as head coach at Ohio University, where he led the Bobcats to an 85-56 overall record as well as Mid-American Conference Tournament titles and NCAA Tournament appearances in 2010 and 2012. Ohio was the story of the 2012 Tournament, advancing to the Sweet 16 as a No. 13 seed with victories over No. 4 seed Michigan followed by No. 12 seed South Florida. The Bobcats finished just short of the Elite Eight, falling to top-seed North Carolina in overtime in the regional semifinal. It marked just the second time in Ohio’s school history and first since 1964 that the Bobcats won multiple games in the NCAA Tournament. Ohio finished the 2012 season with a school-record 29 wins and was known for its pressure defense, ranking second nationally in turnover percentage and third in steals percentage. Ohio also made noise in the 2010 postseason. Playing in the school’s first NCAA Tournament game in five seasons, the Bobcats received a No. 14 seed and defeated No. 3 seed Georgetown. With the 2010 and 2012 NCAA performances, Ohio became just the sixth school ever to win Tournament games as both a 13 and 14 seed.

The Coaching Staff

director of athletics mike thomas Mike Thomas is in his fourth year at the University of Illinois in 2014-15 after being named the school’s 18th director of athletics on Aug. 10, 2011, following six successful years as the director of athletics at the University of Cincinnati. A 29-year veteran of college athletics administration, Thomas is leading the Fighting Illini athletic program to national prominence. In three years leading the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics at Illinois, Thomas has executed a number of major projects. Thomas launched the three-year, $170 million State Farm Center renovation project – including a landmark 30-year, $60 million naming rights agreement that is the largest for a college-only venue in the country. Construction started in winter 2014 and will be completed in full before the 2016-17 season. Thomas spearheaded a $7.2 million project at Memorial Stadium that included a new video board, ribbon boards, auxiliary video boards, sound system and control room to enhance the fan experience at Illini football games. Along with head coach Mike Small, Thomas oversaw the fundraising for and construction of the $5.5 million Lauritsen/Wohlers Outdoor Golf Practice Facility. In addition, the $1.2 million second-phase renovation of Huff Hall, which featured a new floor and lower bowl bleachers among other upgrades, was completed in summer 2014. And in spring 2014, Thomas moved forward with two studies – renovating the south and east sides of Memorial Stadium and developing a master plan for Olympic sport venues – to be completed in September 2014. On the branding front, Thomas guided Illinois through an 18-month collaboration with Nike, completed in April 2014, that resulted in a new brand and identity system including new uniforms and consistent colors, logos, lettering and numerals. He also led a group that signed a 10-year agreement with Learfield Sports estimated to be worth more than $60 million to become DIA’s exclusive marketing partner and multimedia rights holder, and launched “Illinois. Our State. Our Team.” as the theme for Fighting Illini athletics. During Thomas’ tenure, the I FUND has seen impressive growth in donations fueled by the launch of the Illinois Renaissance to renovate State Farm Center, with first-year fundraising efforts for the campaign totaling nearly $95 million in cash and pledges. Total I FUND fundraising of $29.2 million for 2013-14 marked a record high and is 73 percent increase over 2011-12. Thomas and the I FUND also announced an ambitious long-term goal of “15 x 15 x 2020,” which aspires to more than double both the donor base to 15,000 and total amount donated to scholarships to $15 million annually by the year 2020 On the competitive front, Illini teams have compiled one NCAA championship, six Big Ten titles, and 11 individual NCAA titles during Thomas’ three years at the helm. In 2012, Thomas’ first year at Illinois, the Fighting Illini finished 21st overall in the Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup standings, marking the program’s second-best finish in the 21 -year history of the award. Thomas began his tenure in Champaign-Urbana by hiring Tim Beckman as the Fighting Illini head football coach in December 2011 and naming John Groce and Matt Bollant the head coaches of Illinois men’s and women’s basketball, respectively, in April 2012. In the classroom, Fighting Illini student-athletes posted an impressive 3.23 overall GPA for the Fall 2013 semester and 3.14 for Spring 2014. Ten teams posted a perfect 1,000 in the NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) for the 2012-13 academic year – baseball, men’s cross country, men’s golf, men’s gym, wrestling, women’s golf, softball, women’s soccer, women’s tennis and volleyball – while five earned the NCAA Public Recognition Award by ranking in the top 10 percent of their sport nationally for the four-year period ending with 2012-13: baseball, men’s golf, women’s golf, soccer and women’s tennis. For the third straight year, Fighting Illini student-athletes, coaches and staff completed over 7,000 hours of community service. Prior to his move to Illinois, Thomas revamped and led a vibrant Cincinnati Bearcats athletic program from 2005-11, directing the school’s launch into the Big East Conference and earning several Big East championships, as well as multiple Big East academic excellence awards. In 2006, Thomas hired head football coach Brian Kelly and the Cincinnati football team made program history in the three following seasons by achieving a 34-6 record, consecutive Big East Championships and appearances in the Orange and Sugar Bowls. The 2009 season ended with UC finishing 12-0 and No. 3 in the final BCS rankings. Thomas also hired Butch Jones, who went on to ensure Cincinnati’s dominance on the conference scene, sharing in a Big East title in 2011 and 2012. Thomas brought back a Bearcat when he hired former UC assistant Mick Cronin as head men’s basketball coach in 2006. Cronin returned the program to national prominence with appearances in the NCAA tournament the past four seasons. UC grew to be one of the most recognized schools in the 16-member Big East for academic success and earning multiple Big East Academic Excellence Awards, including a league-high five Big East Academic Excellence Awards in 2009-10. The overall APR of all Bearcats programs also increased during Thomas’ tenure. In the final APR report from his tenure, five UC athletic teams earned perfect APR scores of 1,000, including men’s basketball. In that same time period, the Graduate Success Rate (GSR) for student-athletes increased from 66 percent to 77 percent.

From 2006-11, UC’s student-athletes emerged as community leaders, with annual community service hours growing from 1,000 to over 5,500. On the external side, the University of Cincinnati grew at a tremendous rate. Thomas increased UC’s athletic department budget 20 percent, while simultaneously reducing the annual operating deficit by more than $6 million. UC established single-season attendance and revenue records for football in each of the three seasons from 2008-10. Football attendance skyrocketed, with season-ticket package sales exploding by 277 percent since 2006 and resulting in record football revenues. In terms of donor development, membership in UCATS increased by almost 300 percent during Thomas’ tenure and the department raised $70 million during his arrival. Thomas raised private funds and built the Sheakley Athletics Center, providing football and other UC athletic teams much needed additional practice and competitive space. In 2008-09, Thomas revamped UC’s multimedia rights partnership, reaching an agreement with IMG College for a new multimedia rights partnership, increasing overall revenues in this area by over $17 million. Prior to taking the athletic director position at UC, Thomas spent five years as the Director of Athletics at the University of Akron and seven years as associate athletic director at the University of Virginia, an institution known for achieving impressive success both academically and athletically, before bringing that model to Akron. Virginia finished in the Top 25 in the Director’s Cup in each year of Thomas’ tenure there while at the same time finishing in the Top 10 nationally in student-athlete graduation rates. Under Thomas’ direction, Akron rose from last place to second among Mid-American Conference schools in the Director’s Cup annual rankings. Simultaneously, Akron vaulted from last to second place in the MAC Academic Achievement Awards. Thomas increased the financial base of the Akron athletics program through increasing corporate sponsorship levels by 750 percent and boosted annual giving to athletics to its highest level in the school’s history. Community support was rallied, with record increases shown in both football and basketball attendance. During this time period, the Zips won their first and only MAC football championship and participated in the program’s lone FBS bowl game in history. Thomas’ hire of men’s basketball coach Keith Dambrot led to unparalleled success on the hardwood with Dambrot’s program becoming one of the most successful in the MAC over the past 10 seasons, including eight postseason appearances. While at Akron, support services and facilities for academic support for student-athletes were significantly improved, resulting in jumps in grade point averages and graduation rates of UA student-athletes. During his career in collegiate athletics, Thomas has coordinated over $350 million in facility construction and renovation, including $25 million in capital improvements at Akron that featured a new indoor fieldhouse and golf facility, a football practice complex, and a softball facility. He also spearheaded the new on-campus football stadium and was instrumental in the development and launching stages of the $61 million facility, which opened in September of 2009. At Virginia, Thomas served as a member of the senior staff and was sport oversight for eight programs. He served as the department liaison for the $86 million renovation to UVA’s football stadium and oversaw several other capital projects. In addition, Thomas served as the Chair of the Atlantic Coast Conference Men’s and Women’s Swimming and Diving Committee and also served on the ACC Sportsmanship Committee. Recognized for his administrative acumen by his peers, Thomas has served on several national and conference committees, including the NCAA Division I Championship/Sports Management Cabinet (where he also served as the NCAA men’s basketball liaison to the cabinet and as a member of the cabinet’s four-person Administrative Committee) and the NCAA Men’s Basketball Issues Committee. Thomas also previously chaired the Big East Championship and Competition Committee and served as a member of the NCAA Division I Championships/ Competition Cabinet, the NCAA Division I Women’s Basketball Issues Committee, the NCAA Division I Academics/Eligibility/Compliance Cabinet, the NCAA Postseason Bowl Licensing Subcommittee and the Division IA Athletics Directors Association Legislative Review Committee. Thomas presently serves on the Big Ten Legislative Review Committee and the USTA Athletic Directors Advisory Committee on College Tennis. Twice during his career, Thomas has received distinction for his efforts and dedication as a director of athletics, garnering the General Robert R. Neyland Outstanding Athletics Director Award in 2005 at Akron and then again in April of 2008 at Cincinnati. He has been recognized by the Cincinnati Sports Professionals Network as the 2009-10 Sports Executive of the Year. Prior to his experience at Virginia, Thomas spent seven years at the University of Denver as assistant athletic director for internal operations, serving as chief financial officer and overseeing the departments of compliance, merchandising, and facilities. He began his athletic administration career at the University of Iowa as an administrative and operations intern. Thomas received his bachelor’s degree in business administration from Colorado State University in 1983, and his master’s degree in athletic administration from Western Illinois University in 1986. He and his wife, Jenifer, have four children: Vince, Joey, Mick and Meredith.

richmond endowment

Richmonds Endow Basketball Coach’s Position The legacy of Jack Richmond abounds at his alma mater, the University of Illinois.

It also made him further appreciate the University of Illinois.

The Champaign resident, retired businessman, and U of I graduate and benefactor died April 17, 2011. But his love of his university lives. One of the more recent gifts from the lifelong Fighting Illini fan and his wife, Marge, endowed the salary of the men’s basketball head coach position. This $2 million gift significantly increased their previous seven-figure commitment to the Division of Intercollegiate Athletics.

His years at the U of I were greatly satisfying. He was a member of Phi Gamma Delta social fraternity and was active in sports. As a freshman gymnast who earned his numerals with the U of I team, Jack broke his sternum following a dismount from the flying rings. No longer able to compete as a gymnast, he focused his attention on weight training. At that point, weights weren’t popular and were nonexistent at the U of I.

Their generosity extends across the U-C campus. In 2004, Mr. Richmond made a six-figure gift creating the Jack C. Richmond Scholarships for members of the men’s varsity gymnastics team. In 2003, the Richmonds made a $1.5 million gift resulted in Richmond Family Gallery, the first floor reception area in the Alice Campbell Alumni Center. The Richmonds also provided a $2 million gift to the College of Communications in 1998 that created the Richmond Journalism Teaching Studio, a broadcast facility for journalism students in Campbell Hall for Public Telecommunication. The Richmond Studio and the Richmond Family Gallery honor Jack and Marge as well as the memory of Jack’s parents, Arthur Dean and Mildred Hummel Richmond. “The Richmond Family Endowed Men’s Head Basketball Coach” is another example of the generations-long benevolence of the Richmond family. Jack’s ancestors helped settle Champaign County, and his parents contributed to the U of I for the construction of Memorial Stadium. Seven-year-old Jack was on hand for the dedication of Memorial Stadium on Oct. 18, 1924, a day forever highlighted by Red Grange’s five touchdowns during an Illinois romp over top-ranked Michigan. Jack Richmond was hooked on Fighting Illini sports for the rest of his life. But before he could attend the U of I, he learned a few lessons in life. The Richmonds were devastated by the Great Depression, losing their significant holdings of farmland and other assets. The dramatic change in lifestyle had a profound effect on young Jack.

Still, he convinced Seward Staley, director of the U of I School of Physical Education, to purchase a set of Olympic weights. A small but dedicated weight lifting team was formed, and the sport spread to first to the intramural level and then was adopted by the physical education department as a P.E. course.

Above: Jack and Marge Richmond with Mr. Richmond’s mother, Mildred. Right: Jack Richmond, 1940.

Today, the benefits of weight training are widely recognized and top-notch equipment is available across campus. Those muscles paid off for Jack, who was a railroad worker, wrecking crew member, meat truck driver, corn detassler, lifeguard, bouncer and even a model for the U of I art school to pay for his education. He graduated in 1943 with a bachelor’s degree in agriculture. He followed up his four years of ROTC at the U of I with a tour in the Army. Then he put his degree to work when he joined the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Soil Conservation Service as a county farm planner, opening district offices in Macon County and Clark County. Later, Mr. Richmond was recruited by a former member of the U of I gymnastics team as a salesman for Marchant Calculators. His capacity to sell was exceptional, and he soon had clients from area grain elevator operators to the U of I. He remained with Marchant, which was acquired by Smith Corona and became known as SCM Corp., until 1972. Then he was ready to embark on a new course — the stock market.

He had dabbled in the market since 1955, but by the early 1970s he had the time and resources to become more active in the stock market. He enjoyed success in this realm as well, and was more than willing to share. A donor since 1965, his generosity to the U of I increased significantly over the years. Jack and his mother became members of the Presidents Council in 1976 and Marge became a member in 1990. Always interested in athletics at the U of I, Jack and Mildred Richmond had made a $1 million commitment to the Athletic Department in 1981. He became an honorary member of the I Man’s Association and had been a member and former president of the Illini Quarterback Club since 1955. He also joined the Rebounders Club shortly after former head coach Lou Henson founded it and had been a life member of the Fighting Illini Scholarship Fund. The Richmond name will be forever associated with athletics at the U of I through the endowment of the men’s basketball head coach position. For lifelong Fighting Illini fan Jack Richmond, that always seemed most appropriate.

The Fighting Illini

2014-15 season preview Plenty of Production Back in 2014-15 Last year saw a major overhaul of coach John Groce’s roster, as the Illini lost five of their top eight scorers, returned just three rotation players and added nine newcomers to the fold. This year, however, the Illini welcome back four starters, a total of eight letterwinners and a majority of the talent from a team that won 20 games, including six of its last nine. Illinois returns nearly 59 percent of its points, 61 percent of its rebounds and 60 percent of its minutes from the 2013-14 campaign. Abrams Out for Season with Torn ACL Illinois expected to have even more production returning, but lost its most experienced player prior to the season. Point guard Tracy Abrams suffered a torn ACL in his right knee during a skill workout in September, forcing him to the sidelines. Abrams had been a starter for the Illini since midway through his freshman campaign. He ranked second on the team in scoring last year, averaging 10.7 points, and led the Illini in assists (3.2 apg). Abrams will redshirt this season and return in 2015-16 for his final year of eligibility. Rice and Egwu Poised for Big Senior Campaigns Rayvonte Rice and Nnanna Egwu return for their senior seasons after starting every game last year. After sitting out the 2012-13 season as a transfer, Rice has made an immediate impact for the Illini as a prolific scorer on the wing. He registered double figures in 31 games, highlighted by 25 points at UNLV, 28 versus UIC, a career-high 29 in a home win over Indiana and 28 at Boston U. Rice finished the year with a scoring average of 15.9 points to rank eighth in the Big Ten. An honorable mention all-conference pick, Rice also led the team with 58 steals (sixth in Big Ten) and is one of the top perimeter rebounders in the league. He averaged 6.0 boards – just one rebound away from the team lead on the year – and was second in the conference in defensive rebounding during league play. Egwu has earned a reputation as an elite defensive center with his shot-blocking prowess and mobility to defend both around the basket as well as on the perimeter. Egwu led the Illini with an average of 6.0 rebounds and was the top offensive rebounder in the Big Ten, averaging 2.5 per game. He tallied 73 blocks, the second-highest single-season total in Illini history, to rank second in the league with an average of 2.1 bpg. Egwu also averaged 6.9 points to rank fifth on the team. Nunn and Hill Emerge The old sports adage goes that the best thing about freshmen is they become sophomores. Based on the contributions the Illini already received from Kendrick Nunn and Malcolm Hill as rookies, if that saying again holds true the sophomores have bright futures ahead. Both players moved into the lineup on Feb. 9 at Penn State and started the UI’s final 12 games. Nunn averaged 10.3 points and 2.4 rebounds as a starter, earning a spot on the Big Ten All-Freshman Team and receiving Big Ten Freshman of the Week honors during the final three weeks of the season. Nunn led the Illini in 3-point shooting at 38.8 percent and made 20-of-43 over the final 12 games, a clip of 46.5 percent. Hill averaged 6.5 points and 2.5 rebounds as a starter, scoring in double figures four times. After struggling with his shooting at the beginning of the year, he made nearly 45 percent over the last 12 games (25-56) and connected on nine of his final 15 attempts from 3-point range. Hill’s versatility will allow him to play both the “3” and “4” spots.

Also Returning for the Orange and Blue Rounding out the returning letterwinners are a trio of sophomores in Jaylon Tate, Maverick Morgan, and Austin Colbert along with junior Mike LaTulip. Tate showed promise at the point guard position as a rookie, recording nine games of three or more assists. He set a career high with eight assists in just his second contest versus Jacksonville State. Following the injury to Abrams, Tate has the opportunity to take on a bigger role directing the Illini attack this season. Morgan appeared in all 35 games as a freshman, providing back-up minutes to Egwu and shooting 58.3 percent from the field. A physical presence in the post, Morgan continues to improve his strength and conditioning and will again bolster the Illini frontcourt. Colbert appeared in 22 games last season. Known for his athleticism, he has the ability to play both frontcourt positions. LaTulip is entering his third year as a walk-on, providing invaluable leadership and competitiveness in practice. The sharpshooter played in 12 games last season, knocking down a trio of 3-pointers. Transfers Ready to Make Their Mark Illinois will have more offensive firepower and depth on the perimeter with the additions of senior Ahmad Starks and junior Aaron Cosby, who are both eligible after sitting out last year as transfers. Starks played three seasons at Oregon State. He was a career double-figure scorer (10.2 ppg) and left as the Beavers alltime leader in 3-point field goals with 185. Illinois petitioned the NCAA last season to grant Starks immediate eligibility, but his hardship waiver was denied. That ruling has worked in the UI’s favor over the long run, as Starks is an experienced point guard who will vie to fill that position following Abrams’ injury.

Black is a top-50 recruit from Memphis. He averaged 20.2 points and 12.9 rebounds at White Station, earning Mr. Basketball and Gatorade Player of the Year honors for the state of Tennessee. Black is a high-energy forward who attacks the glass and can score and defend. Finke averaged 19.6 points and 9.3 rebounds as a senior at Centennial High School in Champaign. Standing 6-10, he is a tremendous 3-point shooter who will fit the “stretch” role in Groce’s offense similar to previous bigs Tyler Griffey and Jon Ekey. Austin arrived at Illinois following two seasons at Eastern Illinois and will sit out this season as a transfer. He will aid the Illini in practice along with Liss, who joins the program from Glenbrook North High School.

2013-14 in Review

2013-14 Season In REview The identity Illinois coach John Groce wants his teams known for is “TNT,” which stands for toughness and togetherness. Groce’s second Illini squad showed it had those qualities, rebounding from mid-season adversity to surge late in the season. Illinois entered the season with many unknowns, featuring a roster of nine newcomers while returning just three players from the previous year’s rotation. But the Illini did not show signs of inexperience early, storming out of the gate in November. After opening the season with five straight home wins by an average of 20.6 points, Illinois made its first road trip of the season to Las Vegas. There the Illini fought back from a 10-point second-half deficit to defeat UNLV behind Rayvonte Rice’s 25-point, 10-rebound performance, including the game-winning basket with 28 seconds remaining. Following another two-point win, this time at home over IPFW, Illinois suffered its first loss of the season at Georgia Tech. The Illini quickly recovered by dominating Auburn five days later in a return trip to Atlanta. Illinois led by as many as 32 points while torching the nets to the tune of 61.5 percent shooting, including a season-high 12 three-pointers. After a home win over Dartmouth, Illinois traveled to Portland for its first test against a ranked team in No. 15 Oregon. The Illini were on the cusp of the upset, leading by one with less than four minutes remaining. But the Ducks ended the game on a 13-5 run to prevail. Illinois wrapped up non-conference play with two more victories, including a thrilling Braggin’ Rights win over No. 23 Missouri in St. Louis. The atmosphere in Scottrade Center was electric as the teams traded blows, the lead exchanging hands 15 times in addition to six ties. With the Illini trailing by one point and the game winding down, Tracy

Abrams drove the lane and was fouled on a shot with 4.6 seconds left. Abrams stepped to the line and calmly drained a pair of free throws to secure the win and give the Illini the Braggin’ Rights trophy for the first time since 2008. Illinois entered the Big Ten with an 11-2 record and quickly added to that win total by opening conference play with a pair of home wins. Rice scored a career-high 29 points – the most by an Illini on the season – to lead the Illini to an overtime win over the Hoosiers on New Year’s Eve. Then, with members of the 1989 Flyin’ Illini on-hand at State Farm Center celebrating the 25th anniversary of their trip to the Final Four, Illinois notched a 20-point win over Penn State. A prolonged bump in the road followed though, as the Illini lost eight in a row to fall to 13-10 on the season. Groce, however, saw improvement from some promising young players during the slide and elected to shake up the starting lineup for the first time on Feb. 9, inserting freshmen Kendrick Nunn and Malcolm Hill as starters at Penn State. The Orange and Blue got back on the winning track that day, beating the Nittany Lions behind Nunn’s career-high 19 points. After dropping their next two games, the Illini reeled off three straight wins, beginning with a 13-point road victory at Minnesota. Illinois connected on 8-of-13 from 3-point range and Nunn tied his career high with 19 points as the Illini won in Minneapolis for the second year in a row. Illinois next snapped Nebraska’s five-game winning streak, defeating the Huskers by 11 points in Champaign. The most impressive win of the season followed, as the Illini traveled to East Lansing, Michigan and knocked off No. 18 Michigan State to record the UI’s 900th Big Ten win in program history. The Spartans managed just 46 points on their home floor as they became the fourth straight Illini opponent to score in the 40s. It marked the first time since 1947 that the Illini defense held four straight Big Ten foes to less than 50 points. The three-game win-streak came to an end at the hands of conference champion Michigan. But the Illini showed resiliency by next claiming a third straight road win and fourth out of five, defeating Iowa on a game-winning 3-pointer by John Ekey with 0.9 seconds left. After winning four of their last five regular season games, the Illini finished Big Ten play at 7-11. Illinois then set its sights on a strong showing in Indianapolis in hopes of securing an NCAA Tournament bid.

Tracy Abrams had 12 points, four assists and a career-high five steals in Illinois’ 53-46 victory at No. 18 Michigan State on March 1. Illinois finished Big Ten play strong, winning four of its final five games.

The Illini got off to a good start, defeating Indiana 64-54 in the first round behind Abrams’ seasonhigh 25 points. Up next was an opportunity for a signature win against top-seeded Michigan. The Wolverines opened up a 13-point lead early in the second half and still led by 11 with less than 12 minutes remaining. But the Illini would not go away quietly, continuing to persevere and chip away at the deficit. That effort resulted in a 17-3 run that put the Illini ahead by three with less than four minutes remaining. Michigan took the lead

back on a layup with seven seconds left. Illinois had the final possession and the chance for the win, but Abrams’ runner in the lane fell short as time expired. Illinois received a No. 2 seed in the NIT, but due to construction at State Farm Center, had to play on the road at No. 7 seed Boston U. The Illini started slow, falling behind 30-13. No stranger to comebacks by this point in the year, Illinois staged yet another rally, and, behind Rice’s 28 points, earned its 20th win of the season. The 17-point come-from-behind victory marked the largest of the Groce era. The Illini were back on the road for the second round, facing No. 3 seed Clemson in front of a sellout crowd. Illinois struggled from the field but stayed in the game thanks to its effort on the defensive end. The Illini took their first lead of the game on an Ekey 3-pointer with two minutes remaining, but Clemson scored the winning basket with nine seconds left, ending Illinois’ NIT run and bringing the 2013-14 season to a close.

Records

year-by-year records Head Coach Elwood Brown (1 year, 6-8, .429)

Leo Hana was put in charge of building the basketball program at Illinois after a women’s program had existed for years. A team, led by its playing captain Roy Riley, beat Champaign High School Jan. 6, two weeks before Hana was able to replace Riley with a “professional” coach. Elwood Brown became Illinois’ first basketball coach Jan. 20, 1906, and proceeded to turn in a commendable coaching job, especially since the squad lost two of its mainstays during the season. “The results of the season were on the whole satisfactory. In the future, there will not be such a lack of material as hampered the coach (Brown) this season,” wrote the 1907 Illio.

Head Coach F.L. Pinckney (1 year, 1-10, .091)

Pinckney took over the coaching reins for a year in 1907. There was promise for a good season after the solid start the program had made in 1906. More than 100 men tried out for the team. Pinckney found at least three freshmen he thought would help the team and placed them on the varsity squad. However, the Western Conference Committee declared the three ineligible, leaving Pinckney with a much depleted team and Illinois with its worst record ever. The decision to make the freshmen ineligible gave Pinckney the same problem Brown faced the year before - turning out a winning team with limited talent.

Head Coach fletcher lane (1 year, 20-6, .769)

Fletcher Lane was Illinois’ third coach, but lasted just one season. His 20-6 team of 1908 benefited from a long Southern trip in which the team beat several YMCA and club teams from Tennessee, Texas, Alabama, and Georgia. The club was billed as a closely-knit group, due in part to the long trip. The players, however, did not appear to appreciate Lane’s coaching style. M.G. Dadant, the 1908 captain wrote, “Handicapped as they were by the lack of any competent coaching, the players went through the season in perfect harmony, each one relinquishing any personal feelings that the team might be better as a whole.”

Head Coach H. V. Juul (2 years, 12-10, .545)

H. V. Juul became the first Illinois basketball coach to stay for more than one year. He also became the first former Fighting Illini player to head the Illinois basketball program and was captain of the 1907 squad. After leading Illinois to a 12-10 record over two years, he departed to become a professional baseball player, enjoying stints with the Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds. Juul was the son of a former Illinois Congressman and, prior to his death in 1928, was a committeeman in the 35th Ward in Chicago as well as campaign director for the Republican Party headquarters at the Morrisson Hotel in Chicago.

T. E. Thompson also had a twoyear career as head basketball coach at Illinois, compiling a 14-14 record. Thompson claimed, at the time, to be the only player in Western Conference history to have played five years of collegiate basketball. He was at Northwestern for one year before playing at Illinois for four additional seasons. In addition to his duties as basketball coach at Illinois in 1911-12, he also served as Athletic Director George Huff’s only assistant in the athletic department, doubling as the school’s general manager of athletics and as ticket manager. After leaving the university, he founded The Thomas Thompson Company in Highland Park, Ill., a manufacturer of enamel products.

After arriving at Illinois from Purdue, Ralph Jones left an impressive legacy behind in Champaign. Besides coaching freshman football and baseball during his tenure at Illinois, he was credited by some with originating the fast break in basketball. After leading the Fighting Illini to one outright crown and the sharing of one other conference championship, Jones left to coach at Lake Forest Academy. In addition, Jones was head coach of the Chicago Bears from 1930-33, where, among other achievements, he was credited with the revival of the T-formation and the use of a man in motion to throw off the defense.

Head Coach Frank Winters

Head Coach J. Craig Ruby

While in his two-year stint as coach of the Illinois basketball team, Frank Winters was faced with having only a handful of veteran players available and was forced into installing an entirely new system of play. His 25-12 record in two years was a testament to the way Winters made negatives into positives. Upon arriving as head coach in the fall of 1920, he inherited a team whose best player, Chuck Carney, had just severely injured his knee in the last football game. Nonetheless, the team went on to an 11-7 record and improved to 14-5 in the 1922 campaign.

J. Craig Ruby was known as one of the great basketball tacticians of his time. He and legendary Kansas coach Phog Allen actively campaigned together for higher baskets to offset the advantage of tall centers. Ruby alone advocated the elimination of the dribble to do away with stalling, and wanted the hoop enlarged to 20 inches in diameter rather than the standard 18. Rubyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second season at Illinois produced a tie for the Big Ten Championship in 1924, but it was not until 1935 that he could lead his team to tie for top conference honors again.

Doug Mills was not only an extremely successful basketball coach at Illinois, but one of the University’s most prolific and long-standing administrators. He began his association with Fighting Illini athletics as a standout in both football and basketball in the late 1920s. Mills became the first Illinois head basketball coach to lead his squad to three Big Ten crowns. Also included in his 11-year coaching tenure was the formation of the legendary “Whiz Kids” team of 1942 and ’43. That team won back-to-back Big Ten crowns. After retiring from the coaching ranks in 1947, Mills retained his position as athletic director until 1966.

Head Coach harry combes (20 years, 316-150, .678)

Harry Combes only had to move across town after accepting the job as head coach at Illinois. Prior to joining the Illini, he had been head coach at Champaign High School where he posted an astounding 254-46 record, including winning the state title in 1946. Once at Illinois, he won three Big Ten titles in his first five seasons (’49, ’51 and ’52). It was also Combes who led the Fighting Illini to three third-place finishes in the NCAA Tournament in the four-year period from 1949-52. The squad won 79 of the 100 games during those four years. Illinois’ 1952 Final Four appearance was the first officially recognized Final Four. Until Lou Henson broke the record in 1990, Combes’ 316 wins were the most wins ever by an Illinois head basketball coach.

Head Coach harv schmidt (7 years, 89-77, .536)

Harv Schmidt, a former all-time great player at Illinois, returned to his alma mater in 1968 after serving as an assistant at New Mexico for three years. Within three years of his arrival, he had brought Illinois back to among the elite programs in the Big Ten. The beginning of his tenure marked what possibly was the high-water mark in fan enthusiasm. Illinois led the nation in attendance in 1970, averaging 16,128 per home contest, as students routinely camped out for tickets outside the newly opened, state-of-the-art Assembly Hall.

Head Coach gene bartow (1 year, 8-18, .308)

Brought to Illinois to continue the magical rebuilding jobs he had undertaken at Valparaiso and Memphis State, Gene Bartow was counted on by Athletic Director Cecil Coleman to restore the successful level of play fans had become accustomed to in the past. However, Bartow’s stay in Champaign was shortlived, lasting only one year and producing an 8-18 record. The lure away from Illinois was a strong one for Bartow; he was hired away by UCLA to replace legendary Bruin coach John Wooden.

Head Coach lou henson (21 years, 423-224, .654)

Lou Henson, the all-time winningest coach in Illinois basketball history, came to Champaign-Urbana after successful head coaching stints at Hardin-Simmons and New Mexico State Universities. He finished his Illinois career No. 12 on the NCAA all-time victory list with 663 wins. Illinois became a national power under Henson, being selected to the NCAA tournament 11 times. The highlight of the postseason competition came in 1989 when the spectacular Flying Illini team won 31 contests and advanced to the Final Four. Henson’s Illini were also seeded among the top four in their regional for six consecutive years (1984-89) for the secondlongest such streak (next to North Carolina) ever. Illinois finished in the upper division in the Big Ten nine consecutive seasons (1983-91), and had 11 straight years of producing a plus-.500 Big Ten record from 1981 to 1991, the fifth-longest streak of that kind in Big Ten history. Henson led the Illini to a 1984 Big Ten co-championship and No. 1 national ranking in 1989. He coached Illinois to nine straight 20-win seasons from 1983 to 1991 and finished his UI career as the third-winningest coach in Big Ten history with 214 victories.

Bill Self was hired at Illinois on June 9, 2000, succeeding Lon Kruger, who left to become head coach of the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks. Self came to Champaign-Urbana after three seasons at Tulsa, where he led the Golden Hurricane to an NCAA Elite Eight appearance in 2000. His previous head coaching experience included a four-year stint at Oral Roberts (1994-97). Self became the first Big Ten coach since 1912 to win Big Ten titles in each of his first two seasons. In his first season, Self led the Illini to a 27-8 record and a share of the Big Ten championship. Illinois earned a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament, advancing to the Elite Eight. His second team saw the Illini again share the Big Ten title and advance to the NCAA Sweet 16 with a 26-9 record. In his third season, Illinois won its first Big Ten Tournament title in 2003 and advanced to the Second Round of the NCAA Tournament. He left Illinois to become the head coach at Kansas in April, 2003.

year-by-year records Head Coach John Groce (2 yearS, 43-28, .606)

John Groce was hired at Illinois on March 29, 2012. Groce arrived in Champaign after four seasons as head coach at Ohio, where he led the Bobcats to a pair of MAC Tournament titles and a trip to the NCAA Sweet 16 in 2012. In his first season, Groce led the Illini to 23 victories, three wins over Top-10 opponents – highlighted by a buzzer-beating victory over No. 1-ranked Indiana – and culminating in an NCAA Tournament Round of 32 appearance.

orange krush “The Orange Krush are super, scintillating and sensational! They are a fantastic sixth man for the Fighting Illini. However, what makes them so unique is their willingness to help people in need and helping out with various charities, such as the V Foundation. Yes, they are special. To put it in ‘Vitalese’ they are awesome, baby, with a capital A!” –– ESPN Analyst Dick Vitale Orange Krush is a student-run cheering section of dedicated Illini students who love basketball, with more than 700 students standing courtside to cheer on the Illinois men’s basketball team. Members arrive hours before the game to get the best seats on the floor on game day, with the line of Orange Krush students waiting for the doors to open extending halfway around State Farm Center. Not only is the Orange Krush considered one of the nation’s premier basketball student sections, it also is a charity foundation as well. All students interested in membership in the Orange Krush must participate in the Orange Krush 3-point shot program, which raises money for local charities. Founded in 1998, the Orange Krush Foundation (formerly Team Krush Foundation) is a University of Illinois student-run foundation intent on improving the quality of life for the youth and young adults of the Champaign-Urbana and campus community by providing financial support and contributing community service to area not-for-profit organizations. Since the inception of the Orange Krush Foundation, Krush members have raised and donated more than $2.7 million to charity. The Orange Krush Foundation is almost entirely student-run and has donated funds to worthy causes including The V Foundation for Cancer Research, The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, MakeA-Wish Foundation, Coaches vs. Cancer and the Developmental Services Center.In addition, the Orange Krush Foundation also funds scholarship. In 2013-14 alone, Krush allocated approximately $150,000 to the University of Illinois and 58 charities. Krush began its scholarship endeavors by creating the Matthew Heldman Memorial Fund, which honors Matthew Heldman, a point guard for the Illini’s 1998 Big Ten Championship Team, who was tragically killed in a car accident in 1999. The fund, in his name, endows a scholarship for a future Illini basketball player. After five years, the Orange Krush fulfilled the $250,000 commitment, and the fund is fully endowed. During the 2003 season, the Orange Krush Foundation announced the formation of the Rod Cardinal Sports Medicine Fund. This fund pays tribute to Rod Cardinal, who was the University of Illinois men’s basketball athletic trainer for 30 years. The endowment benefits all student trainers at the University of Illinois, which in turn benefits all varsity athletic teams. Krush completed fundraising for this fund in 2006.

At the conclusion of the 2005 season, Orange Krush created the Louis and Dawn M. Weber Student Manager Enhancement Fund. Named in memory of former coach Bruce Weber’s parents, the fund benefits Illinois’ men’s basketball managers. Orange Krush began its newest endeavor in 2009, announcing the Lou Henson Coaching Development Endowment Fund. Named in honor of former Illinois head coach Lou Henson, this $500,000 pledge will be used as a fund to promote the basketball coaching profession within the younger generation, supporting people entering the coaching profession in positions such as graduate assistant, director of basketball operations and video coordinator.

Big Ten Medal of Honor

In 1914, the Big Ten Conference endowed a Medal of Honor, to be awarded annually at each institution to the student demonstrating proficiency in scholarship and academics. Since 1982, a female athlete from each institution has also been awarded the Conference Medal of Honor. In the 95-year history of the award, 18 Fighting Illini basketball players have earned the accolade, including Edward A. Williford, the University of Illinois’ first recipient of the award. There has been one father-son UI Medal of Honor duo, Lee Sentman (track) in 1931 and his son Lee Sentman III (fencing) in 1958. The following is the list of Illinois basketball players who have won the Big Ten Medal of Honor:

university of illinois athlete of the year

The University of Illinois Athlete of the Year was first given in 1940. The award was given annually until it was discontinued in 1973. There were no awards given until 1982, when the Big Ten began a Conference Athlete of the Year, in which each school nominated a male and female athlete. Since 1982, Illinois has recognized a male and female Athlete of the Year. In 1993, the awards were renamed the Dike Eddleman Athlete of the Year awards in honor of the 11-time UI letterman and Olympian. Over the years, 16 basketball players have earned the distinction of Illinois Athlete of the Year.
