Jones Player of the Game. Hope he remembers this at UIC.
Really nice to see Brown, Domask, and Jones have such good games on Sr. night.
Brown's parents were here from Arizona, Domask's from snowy Wisconsin, and Lance's Mom from Evanston.
Nice to see Wonders swish one too.
As I've been saying for a good portion of the season, as Lance goes, the team goes. He has struggled for about a month now and so has the team. He played like a STAR tonight and the team won easily (although Born was out). If he can somehow shoot well for the next 4 + games, we just might have a surprise ending to the season.
Now let's take care of business in Chicago. The wife and i will be there and I will do my best to lose my voice again like I did in Valpo to bring us a win.
A complete game displayed tonight for Senior night. Especially elated for Mr. Lance Jones. Quite the game. Let's take this mojo to Chitown on Sunday, there will definitely be some Salukis in the house. 🙂
21 wins...impressive! Guessing some folks are regretting not taking the Dawgs on that dirty line. LOL!
GO DAWGS!!!
Seems like SIU has the head to head tiebreaker with Indiana State in a 2 way tie based on this. So if SIU wins, they are the 3 seed.

Couldn't ask for a senior night to go to script any better unless Muila went 8 for 8 from the foul line.
Glad this group could go out in style - very well deserved.
And as a bonus, Jimmy Chitwood, I mean Foster Wonders, drained a 3. Chris Cross slashed in for 2. Good times.
Listening to Lance after the game seems like the young man is dealing with a lot in his personal life with his family he owned up to his problems a talked to his teammates seemed to make amends which to me shows maturity and maybe we as fans should cut him some slack because we never know what these kids have to deal with and how they react to it hopefully he has come to grips with how to handle it and is a force going forward

Unless Belmont loses and Indiana State wins. Then we’re the 4 I think. Regardless, win Sunday and get Thursday off.
EDIT: I think I’m wrong I misinterpreted the way that “record be best team goes” thought it only went vs the champion then went to the NET. I guess I’m wrong and the Belmont record still helps us and we get the 3

There's not a scenario on the chart where SIU wins and they aren't the 3 seed. From what I understand, it basically comes down to the fact that SIU beat Belmont and Indiana State didn't. Because both beat Drake and didn't beat Bradley.
