Honestly it may be better to have your starters out now. We lost some games because of it but losing our backcourt early forced players like Williamson, Satterwhite, and Skokna to play a lot more and in my opinion all three are better off because of it; especially Williamson.

Totally agree with you Blers. If ISUr is to win Arch Madness they most likely can't do with just their big 3.
They will need consistent contributions from Williams, Ndiaye, Bruninga, Tinsley and Clarance. Hopefully they can build off last nights showing and the extended time they should see the last 5 games of the regular season!

Drake beats UNI 71-64. Nick McGlynn had 17, Timmer 15, and CJ Rivers 12 points 9 rebounds and had a great game, Noah Thomas and Casey Schlatter hit some big three's. UNI always seems dangerous to me.

Not sure why our guys can’t hang onto the ball when they play Lansing, close game thanks to some big boy threes by Barnes in the second half. That kid can shoot.

Barnes is the most overrated player in the league. Give me Custer all day

Definitely don’t disagree, the shots seem to come with lots of head scratching decisions.

I also don’t know if there’s any players I’d trade Custer for. Him Ingram and Townes really have shown that X factor late in games. The will to win is huge with those guys

UNI is now an absolute lock for Thursday. I'm hoping we do it right and get the 10 seed.

I feel like it has been a lot of years since the 10th seed was not a team who was about to fire their coach... I don't think either Valpo or UNI is in danger of making a change.

No, both should be fine, but I sure hope one of the Thursday teams is planning on it.

Since Drake and Bradley appear to be escaping it this year, does Drake Night now become Marty Night?

Don't count Bradley out of Thursday quite yet. They have a tough stretch in front of them. I have a gut feeling the ISUb @ Bradley game to end the season will be to stay out of Thursday night.
