It’s not anyone on here that the Mullins backers need to worry about. 

It’s the guy with the actual power to make a change. 

👀👀👀

When we were up by 6 late in regulation, I really expected to win. Just couldn't hit some big shots. Tough loss for the Dawgs, but I sure respect the way they played their rears off after the 1st half.

Great game for XJ to finish his college career. I imagine he'll play in Europe if he wants to.

Bradley will beat the crap out of UIC I expect.

So that's a 2-5 mark for Mullins in the MVC tourney, compared to 4-7 for Hinson.  Barry made it to 3 semis, Bryan just 1.  

Either way you look at it, it's depressing.

I thought they had the game won.  X missing the 1 and 1 was huge and then Brown missed one.

The key to this game was X intentionally fouling for no reason in regulation to get his 4th foul.  I'd be interested in what happened there because that was the game.

he is and he knows his fate.  It's over.  Time to admit it. Let's move on.  We lost to an 11 seed. Not the least bit acceptable.

UIC appears to have enough talent to win more games than they did. I watched the Drake game and thought they outplayed Drake and only lost because of some critical non-calls late in the game.

That was a really tough game to watch. Free throws to close it out with your two best FT shooters and they go 1-3…I’m sure those guys are gutted. Still had opportunities to close it out in OT and couldn’t get a stop.

Nothing else really to say other than thanks XJ and Trent for representing this university with class on and off the court.

They made 50 points tonight on drives to the hoop and layups.  A capable coach would have stopped that from happening and forced UIC to beat them from outside... but that didn't happen.

Well boys, we can still watch Marcus and Lance and hear "SIU" from time to time.  That is about as close as we are gonna get in the Dance. I feel sorry for Bryan, and I  hate to say it, but maybe he just doesn't have it to be a head coach. I for sure thought at the end of his 5th year we would be doing better than this. He needs to take a good couple of weeks off but I don't think the guy knows how to relax.

50 minutes of basketball and Scottie Ebube played 3 minutes today.  His defense I'm sure is the reason why but what a way to go out.

There has to be more to this, because Ebube's been a spark on quite a few occasions during the season.  It's unconscionable that he only saw 3 entire minutes in a double-OT game when you already have such a short bench to begin with.

It's insane.

UIC drove the paint at will and we have short Brown trying to control the paint instead of a beast that could have filled the paint and flattened some of those guys. No one else was playing defense so what's to lose?

Also-he can score.

Bryan simply cannot adjust.

He collapses in the stretch run.

I desperately wanted them to hire him. It's time to say goodbye for now. He will be fine and get snapped up as an assistant making $350k.

If not, we will see a lot of Salukis in the portal anyway
