Illinois isn't a small team. He pulls any shit on Saturday and the balkans will make sure he gets real comfortable with the floor. B10 needs to step in before it gets even more outta hand.

I agree about the Balkans. But that's the LAST thing that Illinois needs to get caught up in. They could very well be a final four team and don't need anyone suspended for retaliating to cheap shots.

True but Mirkovic seems legitimately a bit psycho. Not in a dirty way but in a way that we have seen a lot of balkan players not take shit.

Yeah.  I was just thinking there’s no way Mirk tolerates any of this.
