    As I watch the game today, one thing is for certain: OG Anunoby needs more minutes. He is very instinctual on the offensive end (knows when to cut/spot up for 3) and adds another athlete to the floor.

    Sure, there will be freshman mistakes. He still commits way too many fouls and his defensive progression is lacking behind his progress offensively, but he will learn as he goes (just like all freshmen do).

    I'm not saying he should steal considerable minutes from a worthy veteran, but let's see what the young man can give us. Who knows, we may need an athletic shot maker in a big game this year.

    While I was at the forum tipoff classic at southport I went up and talked to Fran before the Fort Wayne Snyder game ( Fran was tracking Malik Williams) I wished him luck in the B1G and asked how he liked his team heading into the conference season. I told him I thought they were underrated compared to the rest of the upper tier teams, he smiled and said he loved the toughness of this years team and didn't mind being overlooked. His team showed toughness today. I will root for them a little more this year when we are not playing them just because he took took time out of his day to talk some college and high school basketball with a Hoosier fan

    At the half, Xavier over Butler 45 - 35.  A familiar name leading the scoring for Xavier - Remy Abell with 14 pts. on 5 of 6 from the floor. 
     
     
    Final score 88 - 69 in favor of Xavier.  Mr. Abell had himself quite a game with 21 pts. on 7 of 8 from the floor and he also had 4 assists.   Some players transfer out and it's just not a big deal but to me Remy will always be one of those 'ouch, that hurt' transfers

    I've always told people to not look at the rankings but pay more attention to who we are beating for these kids. You're correct, it used to be northern Illinois and Toledo that we would beat. Now it's power 5 teams and some pretty good ones. Delroy Baker? We beat Florida for him. I know he is gone, but Tommy mister? We beat out notre dame and mich state. I think coach does a great job of seein talent and going for it. Rankings are fun I do wanna see us improve it, but it's just the surface of the recruiting situation.

    So I was at Bankers Life last night to watch Adaway and Logansport take on Twin Lakes. (We live in Monticello and my wife graduated from Twin Lakes). This kids athleticism is unreal. He made a back door cut early in the first half and rose up for a huge slam. He had another dunk off an alley oop late in the game. He had several blocks and steals that were plays only elite athletes can make. He hit some jumpers, probably an area he still needs to improve on. But he looked like he enjoyed guarding somebody. Wouldn't mind see him get an IU offer if he continually improves.
