Game 31 - March 2 - At Bradley

[BCPanther]

We blew them out up here. They blew us out down there.

None of it means anything come Saturday plus I like our matchup on Friday a whole lot better than theirs.

..to those who said earlier you can't win at this level with players under 6' on your roster...

I really like RJ's game and Bowen was a lot of fun, but they are not really similar to Duke or Jaquon. Duke can shoot from just about anywhere and Jaquon is as effective inside as a guy 4-5 inches taller than him because he is so stocky and strong.

You can succeed with sub 6 footers but they have to be ridiculous athletes or incredibly strong or some combination of both.

Bond with a good amount of first half minutes but not second half, I think this was a glorified exhibition

Honestly I’m totally ok with it. I don’t think it was throwing the game, but a calculated risk that this isn’t worth pushing for when it became rather non competitive . The team has what it needs to going forward and that was the most important thing coming out of this game.

I think he probably believed it wasn't worth the effort to stage a full blown comeback when it was likely Bradley wouldn't blow that lead. UIC or Valpo on Friday. Game time isn't ideal but it is what it is.
