Might have been prudent for someone on the bench to keep a closer eye on the postgame situation with how chippy the game was: not entirely unpredictable for things to devolve. I’ll all for a feisty rivalry with Murray but that went a little too far. Learning experience for many, and I’m guessing Murray wasn’t completely to blame for all of it.
Glad the Dawgs pulled it out, though!
no matter what fans are saying to you, you leave the damn floor, unless you are Murray State.Murray showing their true colors trying to go after an old guy in the crowd
Yeh but that old guy was talking trash - I don't think he said "Nice game young fella!"
Probably said "Nice green tooth Hillbilly!"
Guess you don't remember Bradley coach Dick Versace running into the stands to pound a heckler.
Bullshit. If a fan says something really racist or really offensive, he deserves to be bitch slapped or banned or at least scared shitless.
Fact is, the Murray haters on here, who have no idea how this all started, are ridiculous. All I'll say is what I saw. Some Murray players and some Salukis were jawboning and threatening. And Murray's coach was acting like an idiot chasing down refs after the game. I have no idea how it started, what was said, etc. I am sure as hell not gonna blame it on a football game 20 years ago. That's just ignorant.
Heckling: Where's the line, and did Novak Djokovic hecklers cross it?
17th win of the season, passes Mullins' previous best of 16 wins last year. Record may end up beating the 05-06 team. This team just keeps finding ways to win. https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/schools/southern-illinois/
Saluki Insider? I barely know her!
I went to the fights and a basketball game broke out. Bada~boom!
We better end better than that team, if we finish any worse than 24-7 we won't win the regular season. I really don't think we can lose more than two more games.17th win of the season, passes Mullins' previous best of 16 wins last year. Record may end up beating the 05-06 team.

Lance Jones postgame:
No doubt in my mind, if Burns was not there, none of that would have happened. He’s the trouble on that team, and I’m sure even the Murray fans are tired of watching his antics every game. I’ve watched them quite a bit, and it’s not a coincidence he’s right in the middle of any skirmish.

That was a hell of a game. We didn't play our best but were tough enough to grind it out. I just love our toughness and grit.
I know he's a first team all league defender, but still I can't get over just how TOUGH Jones is on Defense. Sure he gets steals and disrupts plays, but there are intangible things like wearing the other player(s) down that he also does. Add in XJ and Newton, this team can really stick it to the other team.
@wk-saluki You're exactly right. I was at the away game at Murray and Burns acted the same way. I don't like players like that and I'm glad our guys show class for the most part.
Gutsy win, but we didn't play great. Murray outrebounded us badly. I don't get Mullins' fascination with the five-guard line-up. It bites us every time.
I was out the door after the buzzer and missed the skirmish. But I will say, Murray's Coach deserved at least two technicals tonight.
If a player or fan says something racist or out-of-line, players are supposed to report it to their coach, the officials, or both. Suspension or other disciplinary action is then taken. No, you do NOT go up into the stands after them.
Prohm was an ass the 1st time he was at Murray he is an ass now and his team seems to think they never foul and complain after every call not just with normal facial expressions of disbelief but always going up and challenging the official sometimes even putting their hands on the official which I thought was a no no the valley needs to assign more veteran officials in these type of games to try to take more control and put the thugs in their place
