I always love the..."could easily be" posts. They could also easily be 2-2 since they had an OT game.

As an SIU fan--they have to show consistency for me to completely buy in--yet they HAVE won those three games with out having their top scorer (injured foot--Fletcher). That's fairly impressive--also a starter from last year is out for the season (Smithpeters only played one game) and of course Bola transferred.

6-5 sophomore guard Sean Lloyd, true freshman Aaron Cook (five steals in the game against Drake), and 6-6 JUCo guard Jonathan Wiley have stepped up. Plus Seniors O'Brien (two double=doubles in last three games) and Mike Rodriguez (22 points against MSU) have played well.
