Holy sh*t. We are 10-11 overall now against a horribly weak schedule.
I was excited about this team after the Colorado win and even after the two debacles in the rest of that tournament.
But damn. This is just unacceptable.
JD Muila POG with 9 RBs, 1 blk, 1 steal, and 4 pts. I thought he played well tonight. Great effort.
Unfortunately we couldn't stop Knight - their big guy! He's tough.
Dawgs now 324th out of 358 D-1 teams at 62.4 PPG. Hard to believe this team actually averages 62.4, doesn't it?
But hey, they're now 14th in the nation in defensive PPG, at 60.7. They're doing just fine on D, but just so, SO bad on offense.
BM says we're a good shooting team, so we got that going for us, which is nice.
March on triumphantly!
@gobluesaluki and you lost $100 - the
BillyGoatWolverine curse maybe!
I would gladly lose it again for the Salukis to beat that team.
Disappointing season but I really love what I'm seeing on defense and effort. Haven't seen that for years. We have 2 of the 3 parts. Rebuild will happen but gonna take a while.
Tomorrow, some losers: aw, cmon guys don’t you think you’re being a widdle too tough on da guys. If we win our next 11 we could win conference. And there’s this 7 footer from Texas who scores 8 points a game and averages four rebounds playing Class A ball on 3-player teams outside Amarillo…and once Harvey comes back and they really work with Muila’s footwork.
They’re toast. Toast. You better pray Foster Wonders wears sandals and walks on water or we’re gonna lose 20 next year, too.
Bow Em
I can't get over 3 assists in a game
Get over it! Can't do a darn thing about it. When you only score 37, won't have too many assists.
Reiss and Watson sure putting a good spin on this loss. I hope SIU can get back to the NCAA's before Reiss retires, I would like to see him go out with a winner.

Oh I'm over it now, I turned on Big Ten basketball to cleanse my palate
This head coach is COMPLETELY in over his head. COMPLETELY. Can’t draw plays. Can’t coach offense. Gets completely PANTSED in key situations.
It doesn’t help that he never recruited any size, made hardly an effort to grab play-ready transfers, nor adjusted to his player’s strengths.
That performance was outright disgusting.
Now, the rest of the RAH-RAH YAY WE PLAYED WELL CROWD can enjoy yet another loss. Enjoy your nice guys/played hard team. They’re not good. Not good at all. And the future looks worse.
Some people in this board are living in la-la land. This guy is overwhelmed, and the team STINKS.
It doesn’t appear that he has much of a clue as an in-game coach. But at least if he recruited good talent, like I think a lot of us thought based on the Chicago-area recruiting tree, we would be better than this.
But we aren’t.
So we will beat Valpo and lose to Missouri State and be 11-12 overall and 4-7 in conference by February 3.
Ok so this game may have set basketball back 60 years. It was bad.
I still have hope. That is something I have not had since 2008
