One point to make… Loyola having Williamson, Missouri State having Prim, Drake having A few of their top guys, would be like our current team having Aaron Cook… can you imagine the difference he would make?

I'd like to watch this game, but the Olympics is having the shiny streamer thong dancing competition tonight.

Praying we win this game tonight so we don’t have to hear:

1. If we would have made our free throws.

2. if we just made our open shots

3. if Illinois State didn’t have extra players because of the Covid year

4. The refs were bad 

I want more Fillawich tonight.  I don’t care about his defense or his quickness. Our problem is SCORING and he can do that.   He also looks like he has a clue in the paint.  

Go Dawgs!

Just find a way to win and get some confidence to build back up.

@gobluesaluki I agree.  That song is getting old.  This game is a toss-up.

It’s a classic at this point.  

I want a big win tonight.  Being a Thursday team in Year 3 would be an embarrassment. 

Get the effing job done.  Certain things are not working.  Try something different.

Good start on the offensive end.  Jones 2-2 from 3.

Not much. Cook was a decent assists guy...but he had a good offensive big man inside in Pippen which greatly helped that number.  Not a great defender or a great scorer.

I'd rather have Fletcher, Pippen, or McGill back!

Cook was good enough to be recruited by Gonzaga and Georgia (granted Georgia is horrific but still SEC).  I'd say he would have helped out greatly.

Trent Brown on Antonio Reeves is not going well

I listen to Reis and sync it up, but that guy that announces the Redturds has the worst announcer voice ever! Could have been a munchkin in Wizard of Oz.

Just feels like SIU can't ever get their offense and defense playing well at the same time.  When they look good on offense, they usually look awful on defense and vice versa.

Barely played for the Zags. Recruited? No way! And after you have three years D1 experience, you become more interesting to other teams. Never understood the fascination with the guy.    Only excellent game I remember Cook playing was at Kentucky, and he was great that game. Most of the time he was so so.    Terrible FT shooter too.
