Big white boy from SIU E has been a handful

Thrilled that the old sleepy guy is still in the prime seat on the bench! That nodding off habit after 7pm is tough to break. Can’t believe he didn’t get picked up by another program. His recruiting and in game adjustment prowess is immeasurable. Final four for certain with sleepy gramps there! 

Bernie's still around? That's sweet. If BTN+ was worth anything, I would pay the subscription to have a P-P of Bernie Cam in the corner of the screen.

Mgbako pretty much proving true the old (outdated) adage

The best thing about freshmen? They become sophomores.

That galoot will be lumbering, travelling, and elbowing in the paint at Wisky in no time.

Several betting sites were at 27.5

Line moved all over a few points either way.

Anyway, avoid big point spreads on early season basketball games.  They aren't based on much.

Or Purdon’t

Did Goode leave his shot in Champaign?

[sirhoosierlot]

Details man!

[Hoosier DaDa]

Don’t think we’re gonna cover the 27 point spread are we?

[Home Jersey]

Really nice finish on that reverse layup by Baker on SIUE. Absurd that wasn't whistled dead when 5 players were rolling on the floor for the loose ball lol

[IUHoosier5]

Not happy with the close to the game so far. Point differential apparently matters and they got sloppy.

Nope, SIUE run sealed any chances

[WayneFleekHoosier]

Supremely disappointing start to the season.

Got the W. Only thing we can do is build.

More Gallo going forward.

To be fair…..

Although it does not appear he has shown any bodily movement his eyes do seem to be open. Surely you recognize that improvement vs last year.

We finally figured out how to use Ballo.

Can’t stand watching our play style. Dump to a big on the block/close to elbow. Only 16-3’s go up. Feel like there were 3-4 guys looking to get their shot up. Lots more I’d like to say but it’s just the first game of the season

Going to be watching him carefully this year. If he struggles all year, our staff needs to seriously evaluate what they're doing with guards. 

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Very unsatisfying win.

 

[TheWatShot]

I guess winning by 19 is better than winning by 9. Hard to feel great about a game where we had 16 turnovers. 

[str8baller]

Had to play a bench platoon in the first so we could finish with the starters against a satellite campus of directional school.  
 

lotta work to do.
