Salukis 82

Sounds like the camera man is playing the old Matel Electric Basketball game.

I think that the something that changed in the Tulsa game forward is that Fletcher and McGill are back in rhythm after being injured. Team looks very much under control now...very hard to pressure them in this game.
This was a big game because Salukis can rattle off some wins now against SIUe, hopefully Saint Louis, and SEMO before the Murray State test. Murray State has an NBA point guard on their roster, gonna be a tough one.
Mike's Mom is 90 tonight. Happy Birthday.
Mike Is the best. Besides being a great announcer, he loves SIU! 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
Go DAWGS!
Armon player of the game - when Armon and McGill play well, we are so much better.
First insider post, I love to watch Lloyd and Cook play off each other. Fletcher was the real deal tonight. Trying hard not to get my hopes up too high but we were a very strong team tonight.
Mountain West video was amazing. we need to schedule a lot of games with those teams.
That was the best I have seen them play in a long time. You can't ask for much more on the road and at that altitude.
They play like that - no injuries - they can win the MVC.
Congrats to our players and coaches, very nice road win. Haters always gonna hate, but this is going to be a competitive fun season if we can stay healthy

That was a great game to be at and watch. A good number of SIU fans in the crowd...
That was a solid win... Felt like SIU was in control all night, even when CSU took a couple short lived leads.
One point though, Pippen is so easy to score on in the post. Thik can play between his man and the rim and alter shots, I think our coaches need to work on Pip being more active to keep his guy off the block and not let them catch so easy. Any big man so far this year who catches the ball on the block is either going right around Pippen or easily scoring over the top. Rudy was better than him defensively against Tulsa. Concerning trend, if it keeps up Thik is going to be looking at more minutes and Pippen is going to be backing him up.
Other than that, winning a game where Bartley can't make a shot, true road game after being gone for a week, really good win. Hopefully Umass was just the slice of humble pie this team needed to push them the rest of the year.
Something changed in the 2nd half of that Tulsa game. Team looks comfortable together on offense since that point.
I agree and I hope we can keep it together. Hinson has a tendency in his career to check out when things start to click. We will see what happens at Edwardsville College coming off such a complete game by this team. Last night was a lot of fun and I'm glad I made the trip.
Sam Shafer had a large group of family at the game. I'm not sure why they would travel for this game unless he has extended family in Denver. They all had on custom hats that said SAM on the front with 23 on the side/back. It was pretty cool.
