So was St.Louis right ?

Yes, St. Louis is at #121 and is our best win.  Zero top-100 wins. 

Looking at KenPom's numbers, we don't have a top-100 win since 2016.

Dale was awesome and I am still not happy he was let go. I will get over it one day lol 

We disagree there. His record against conference opponents in 8 years was miserable. After Kill's guys were gone, never sniffed the playoffs.

6-5. 5-6 in the best FCS conference is not that bad.  I understand why he was dismissed . That does not mean I have to like it

Just watched the replay since I missed the game earlier. Nice win. Now if we had played with that intensity, hustle, and desire every game, we'd have a far better record. So many games we sleep walk. Still thought our offense was very confused and sloppy many times, and Pippen spent a lot of time 23 ft. from the basket setting picks. Loyola shot poorly also.

I thought our offense looked disorganized much of the night but give credit to Loyola, they have the 7th ranked defense in the country.

making a sign for the game... It's not about firing Barry, it needs to be about Mullins... Help me with what it should say... although I know I will be giving my identity away...

We want Mullins?

Save us Coach Mullins?

Coach Mullins for SIU Basketball 2019-2020

others?

Did you catch any crap today?

I did not... However, it was a bad day to hold up a sign considering we played relatively well and hard all night... I never felt mad.  I held it when they announced Mullins back. a few people laughed, a lady yelled "sign him up" but nothing was said to me.  I have to confess when they are playing well I try not to say a whole lot to upset people because Armon's family literally sits right beside and behind me and I don't want them to feel I am being disrespectful to him or his teammates.  But nobody seemed to mind the sign.

I have been yelled at for trying to start a "Fire Hinson" chant before and "booing"... Those people have since become my buddies in the section that I talk to so clearly we are over that any way.  They know where I stand and seem to respect it.

Also when they announced Barry I heard more boo's that I ever have from my area.  At least a handful of people booing which is more than the normal.

Just no.  I can’t tell you everything but BBQ is a self serving weasel that care only about himself.  

Some of us knew that going in.  Some thought once he had repaired the off court damage caused by Captain A$$hole, that he would ride off or be ridden off into the sunset.  It was only a matter of time before the act wore thin and his true colors emerged.

Those often are the hardest to dump. They get their hooks everywhere with their slickness. Doesn't work with the kids. Just ignore these kinds of people.  It's over anyway.

Good win, but too little too late. There's no single victory in this version of the MVC that'll swing the tide in another direction, and the tide is on Barry's doorstep ready to carry him away.

In my mind, winning this game is perhaps more damning than another blowout loss. It shows this team is capable and should be far better than their record.

Exactly!

This team should have about 3-4 more wins then the record shows. This team shouldn't have been swept by both Valpo and Drake and sure as hell shouldn't have lost that home game to Bradley.

No doubt. Could/should be in 1st place. Sad.

Furthermore, I refuse to sweep the mediocre or worse non-conference performance in each of Hinson's seven years under the rug. Should this year's team have gotten destroyed at home by Murray and lost a home game to Winthrop? Gotten clobbered on a neutral floor by UMass (3-11 in the A-10)?

Even if SIU somehow met expectations in MVC play this year, which it has fallen well short of, they'd be looking at a 15 seed in the NCAAs because of another lousy non-conference showing.
