You're missing that UNI is the softest team on earth right now and that starts with the guy at the top. He's not the same guy anymore.


Sorry for all steroetypes within - but UNI isn't the "tough nosed, gritty gutty white scrapers" anymore. They are more "country club, preppy white dudes". At least that's what it looks like when watching them.

Funny you should mention that....

We had that discussion the other day. We've got a roster full of suburban kids that never wanted for anything in their lives and it shows itself over and over again. West Des Moines, Norwalk, Edina, Lake City and Grand Blanc aren't exactly 'mean streets'.

Xavier Johnson may want to have a word with you on that lol. Still early though.


Imagine how good SIU could have been last year if they used Xavier Johnson like this a year ago.

Bradley and MoSt need to show some toughness before the night ends.

Bradley had a 44-41 lead and the ball with 11 minutes left and ended up losing by 15. Awful.

Bradley is soft, but not as soft as UNI. Mo St is showing some fight, healthy Mo St will be a force.

I still don't get how Xavier Johnson turned into prime Kemba Walker in one season

Was really hoping MSU would pull it out after getting to OT. That game stunk.
