It doesn’t matter how many players you have that can score the ball, if you have next to 0 inside presence, gimmick defenses like matchup zones will expose you. Without Ebube, this is the same team we’ve seen for the last few years now. We need a big fella.

Simply put, you're NOT going to win when you're 2 best players go 3-10 (Domask) and 4-14(Jones). This team NEEDS someone else to step up when these guys falter and, if they don't, they will lose those games. That being said, I don't see Domask and Jones both shooting this poorly in the same game much for the rest of the year.
Shoot good you look good shoot bad you look bad and everything is magnified
5:50 left. Not over.

They've shot bad for 4 years
Maybe the threat of making them walk home woke them up. Decent little 7-0 run now to show there's some life left.
I’m gonna not be here for a bit. I need to take a break from sports.
I hope everybody involved in Salukis basketball is embarrassed by this effort. It’s a program-wide loss. Top to bottom. A total embarrassment. Im done.

HUGE 3 by Lakes to stop the Dawgs run.
SHOOT THE DAMN BALL!!! Jesus we give up open shot after shot. We're looking for a 3 when we have looks in the lane.

no foul?
Welp, a ten-point deficit at the under four TO isn't impossible... but it's gonna take a LOT better effort than the first 36 minutes were.
not sure why some of you guys are this upset. USI lost AT Missouri by 6.... anyone who thought this game was a gimme or was going to be easy wasn't paying attention. USI is good, and we are at their place playing in front of a sell-out crowd at their first D1 home game. I thought this game was trouble from the moment i saw it on the schedule. I honestly kind of expected us to lose this one.
If SIU somehow makes a miraculous comeback again, even then, this still feels like a loss.

Can’t give up 60 to USI if you’re gonna be a 1950’s offense again
