SIU down just 2.  This feels like I'm watching an exact replay of the UNI game.

Jones 3 and suddenly down only 2. 

The thing about our offense is how bad they look, like they aren’t being coached at all.  

They don’t gel. The talent can’t possibly be that bad, can it?

In the interview with Wonders he himself said he was surprised at the defense at this level and thought redshirting was the best case.  Ebube might have been a numbers game, but regardless.  If either one of those 2 was an absolute game changing stud, they would not have redshirted.

Domask was not a true Mullins recruit, he fell in their lap.  He signed with Northern Kentucky and only decommitted when the coach left and it was during the summer. 

I still give credit to the staff.  He had a previous relationship with Pat Monaghan and they recognized his talent and went out and got him.  Easily the best move they've made so far.

sure sounds like recruiting to me - if that's not recruiting, then neither is getting a guy from the portal

It's 100% recruiting.  They did luck into him but that's how it works in college basketball.  I can't imagine where they'd be without Domask right now and I hope we won't have to find out.

Credit to D'Avanzo.  If SIU wins, he'll be a big reason why if not the biggest reason

If you want to rely on players decommitting and then scooping them up and calling it "100% recruiting"....???  I'd rather recruit a very good player, have him commit, come here, not redshirt and make a difference.  But that's me.  You can hope all you want for lucky breaks.

A couple nice shots and patient !!!  I think the POG (if they win) will be the player who scores the most point from here on out.  Just a guess.

Probably needed to get up more than 6 when Drake couldn't score because SIU is due for a scoring drought themselves

If we win by 1, POG will be JD for that miracle FT!

SIU can't get on any sort of run here.  Offense has looked much better but Drake keeps answering back
