WAY TOO EARLY predictions, but I've got both Davis and Dibba making all conference.
Interested in how people at Banterra Center are feeling. I can't even keep up with Luke Martin, it sounds like SIU's pace is something we haven't seen in awhile

To me in person you could tell we were more up tempo but it wasn’t like my basketball viewing experience was vastly different.….we were faster, yes but we were efficient due to playing an inferior opponent. We have a huge height advantage against this squad. At one point I looked at the scoreboard and realized we were at a 100 pt pace. We did a zone press one or two trips, one resulted in a made 3 pt basket for the opponent. Good things happened and some will need to be ironed out. Overall come away from it with the feeling we’ll be in ok spot this year. Barring injury Kennard will be at least 2nd team this year….personal take.
North Park is 8-19 from 3 with 15:52 left. That's not gonna fly.
My biggest takeaway so far has been the play of Aligbe as a true freshmen. I'm looking forward to seeing if this team can not only hang with, but beat COC next Monday.
XJ, I mean, EE has been shooting lights out so far !!!

Can't watch so I don't have much an opinion but Massey has 7 rebounds and 5 points in 11 minutes off the bench. I think the big depth is looking pretty good.
17 turnovers against a D3 team isn't going to fly against D1 teams either
