More of the same from UNI, but I will say, this Evansville team is much better than the last several years. Their 2 bigs are solid and they've got decent guard play. Im not saying theyre a top of the league team, but they won't lose every Valley game...

Did we get a single stop in overtime?

Wow. Foul called on us on both ends, three trips in a row. I guess these refs want FT attempts for the final 12 minutes....

We need to be working inside out. Hut and Ty are having their way in the paint....

Anyone know what Bowen's shooting % is for the year? It's gotta be near 20%.

We are worse in transition than a junior high girls team

The silver lining is that our schedule is 100% exhibition games until March ...

Is it just me, or have we gotten off to a terrible start every season since we implemented the Flow offense?
I think it just takes a while for a team to really settle in with this offense. Even for a veteran team like we had for Berhow's Sr ye...

As soon as I designate Heise as the top dog on this team, he puts up this 2 for 9, 0 for 4 from 3 performance.

Every year it's the same trash in Valley game #1. SMH

Man, we've missed a lot of close in shots tonight

#10 hit the ball outta bounds and they gave possession to Belmont anyways!...

It might be too early to say this, but with all due respect to Born, and maybe he is banged up right now, but Nate Heise is the best player on this team. And I think he will continue to be all season long.

Last season we were both short...

What you call Picking apart, others call transparency. It was a dominant win and we're all encouraged by it. But we did not play well for the entire game and there are still improvements that need to be made. That's the reality of the situation....

Anyone who paid attention during the Stanford game saw that we had the same offensive lull in the 2nd half as every other game this season, (we scored twice in 7 minutes). The difference was that Stanford was just as bad over the same stretch and could...

Hutson is a legit 5 man. He largely neutralized three 7 footers in this tournament and he should be one of the better 5s in Valley play. I'm more encouraged for him now than I was after the opener. If he could hit the occasional 3 ball, it would really...

The midrange 2 point jumper is situationally a great weapon to have. Not something you want to rely on all game, but when you need a bucket, it's often the way to get it. Most end of half (certainly end of game) situations come down to a midrange jumper....

Looking at the scores, we might've been the 3rd or 4th best team in Bahamas. Stanford was just plain trash, but hung right with Arkansas and Michigan all game....

Bowen looked a lot more like Bowen tonight, although the shots weren't all falling. At least he was looking for his shots and taking them in rythem. That's more than you could say for any other game this season.
He doesn't need to be the same...
