    Sucks to lose that one, but considering the circumstances you can't be too upset.

      That 3 Valpo hit early in OT was a killer. We score our first 3 possessions, play tough D then they hit a step back contested 3 over our big bag as the shot clock expires. Then we don't score the next 3 possessions and end up playing catch up.
      To avoid confusion - my username is baseball (Cy Young award) related, NOT for the Cyclones.

We have no chance of staying with Loyola in the standings after that loss. Of course we still have a shot at the #2 seed in St. Louis. Really disappointing to not win after we were leading most the game. Noah played and hell of a game and once he went out it was going to take something special to keep us in it. Not a terrible showing by these guys just couldn’t make the plays when it mattered. Hopefully AJ is a go this weekend so we can stay in that top 2 discussion.
        Still plenty of games to play. Valpo took Loyola to OT too. And Loyola has some tough scheduling left. They will lose a couple games here and there. A 1-seed isn’t much better than a 2, so as long as we stay in the top four, we will be in good position for Arch Madness. Tonight was just a clunker.

            Our best player is out. Another guy steps up and scores 33 points. Then he gets a cramp just bad enough to keep him out of OT. I mean you just can’t write this crap. The amount of nonsense this program has dealt with in the last 5 years is nuts.

              It really is remarkable.

                And none of it would've happened if Doug would've honored his commitment to UNI!

                  It's not healthy to do so, but I can't help but ruminate on that "what if" from time to time. Not just for the program, but the university as a whole.

                  None of that matters now, now all that matters is hoping that AJ gets the all clear for Saturday, and if not, and then finding a way to balance the rotations on Saturday, because a lot of guys played a lot more minutes than they're used to.

                      At least Drake lost tonight vs Bradley, so that helps us a bit.

                        That Drake loss is magnitudes worse than ours

                          I'm damn near positive that we wouldn't be in the Valley any more and would be playing FBS football.

                          Imma go cry now.

                            That's why I said it's not healthy to think about it lol.

                              Tough loss. Noah Carter is a monster. He is just so damn talented. Talk about a matchup problem. Heise didn't have his best game tonight. Born struggled for the most part after starting out decent. Berhow hit some big shots and he also took some really poor shots. You kind of live and die by the sword with Trae when he makes a couple of those. Tytan was a non-factor tonight. Kimmons wasn't able to get much of anything going. And Phyfe... I love how hard all these kids work, and I know Austin is battling, but he was a major liability most of the time he was in. He had a nice little baby hook and a nice putback, but it was rough otherwise.

                              This is a game where they just needed a sliver of the the kind of defense they had been playing up to this point. They just didn't have it tonight. And I will say, Kevion Taylor is a bucket. We were going hard after him when he was in the portal and it's easy to see why. I love that kid's game. Kobe King was their go to guy for iso and he was great at the end. There's a reason this Valpo team pushed Loyola to double overtime in Loyola. Their talent level is not bad at all, and I expect them to be a tough matchup the rest of the year as long as they stay healthy.

                                I'm puzzled as to why we've seen so little of Henry since the MSU game. I get it that Noah has been on a tear but are those two mutually exclusive?
