It was great to see guys like Johnson, Newton and Muila play well Saturday, and D'Amico and Banks have also had some good moments in recent weeks. One guy who it would be nice to get going again is Rupert. Not going to look up the stats, but it seems like he's gone pretty quiet this month offensively when he had been scoring pretty efficiently in the first half of the season.
I think Rupert will catch a second wind, but if not, I wouldn't mind Ebube seeing more of those minutes as he knocks off more and more of his injury rust. Still holding out hope that Rupert, Muila and Ebube can all be in good form by season's end, which would be quite beneficial at both ends of the floor.
4-1 on the road is just plain awesome. But gotta protect home court.
GO DAWGS!
Stadium Bracketology has SIU as a #14 seed against Texas in Orlando
@salukiworld id probably kill to see the dawgs play in orlando, not far from me here and some other fans that live in this part of the woods. flights are probably decent too, i think we would have a pretty good crowd if they miraculously draw orlando
also that projection is insane if it happened and we beat creighton to advance to the sweet 16. really hope it falls through
i cant remember which thread someone asked if anyone was going to the illinois state game, my buddy drew boehler is going, he is an admin on the facebook fan page you could track his tail down on there cool dude and long time fan dont think he is on here though
@salukimodemrowe 30 students are traveling by bus with the SIU Dawg Pound as well. The Illinois State game should feel like a home game. Not sure how many ISU fans will be waking up before 2:00 on a Sunday.😂
SIU favored by 7
Not to hijack the My Little Pony thread, but my kid will be on the bus for the ISU game. It seemed to fill quickly. I don't know how deep the waiting list is but it would have been great to add a second bus. I know the Pound raised hell up there last year. 😀 I think they got stuck in the empty upper deck and you could still hear them chanting SIU on TV. Love it!!@salukimodemrowe 30 students are traveling by bus with the SIU Dawg Pound as well. The Illinois State game should feel like a home game.

I'm not sure what this is about, but I like hearing that an extra 680 people will be in the stands...
"Tuesday is FFA night with a record-setting 680 students registered from 32 colleges joining the Salukis at Banterra Center."
@saluki-69 “Ag night”. My old high school is sending a bus of kids to the game.
That's kind of what I thought, but the part about "from 32 colleges" confuses me.@saluki-69 “Ag night”. My old high school is sending a bus of kids to the game.
EDIT: The SIU website edited the mistake. It now says high schools instead of colleges.
