The only one who has been consistent is Thiero, who is the team's leading scorer at 16.1 points per game and the leading rebounder at 6.2 per game.

The 18th-ranked Illini (14-7, 6-4 Big Ten) have hit a rough patch. “It's frustrating for me,” he said after the loss to Nebraska, “because I know where we can be and what we were getting to.”
