This is a serious question...does anyone really know what is Mullins' "thing" regarding Scottie?  I mean other than the BS he spews when asked why he doesn't play him much.

This team is in 4th place. LOL! The difference in 3rd and 4th in this conference feels like we’re on different planets.

The class of the league will be on national display in about an hour. 

Both Indiana St and Drake should be dancing in March, but they won’t be.

Bradley is really good too.  Indiana State-Bradley last Saturday was like watching a different sport

It is just my opinion but when a team plays 5 out Scottie has trouble on the switches can he make it up in other ways yes but when you have a defensive minded coach these things happen you don't have to agree or like it but this is the current philosophy unfortunately I think Mullins matches the other team instead of matching him but this has been debated at length and it is what it is and it worked out today for a hard fought road win

  Thanks for your perception of why Mullins plays Scottie so little.  That would have been sufficient.

I am sure you're right, that this is what Mullins sees (trouble with switches). But I think we have that problem across the board; I don't think it's just SE, but for whatever reason, he seems to be on a shorter leash than some others. 

I find it baffling and frustrating.

In my opinion, the switching is a much bigger issue with Trent.  He almost always ends up trying to guard a bigger, stronger, more athletic player.

The only legit reason for sitting Scottie would be a conditioning thing.  Anything else is BS.  He'll make a nice dominant Big for some other team next year.

Luke Martin screams: " Trent Brown drains it and listen to Banterra Center North!"

SIU really made the right choice with LM.

Whoever was responsible for the LM hire should get a big, fat raise.

mullins says this all the time if you listen without throwing him directly under the bus… the actions with bigs who can shoot are a huge problem for Scottie, he really struggles. Playing him a lot is living with wide open 3s from knock down shooting bigs. It’s a bad play to keep him on the floor too much against UIC.

I was more surprised with Hensley playing ahead of Rupert because Hensley has really struggled on defense lately but again it worked our today
