Great finish by Kyler there
Nice passing - KF playing way better tonight - got some energy
I love how D’Amico MOVES WITH PURPOSE. How a young player moves WITHOUT the ball tells a lot. Once again, great effort on defense.
Absolutely agree !!!!
This is the best SIU has played all season
Great to see Kyler responding to a little adversity with a strong effort. We're gonna need him in the Valley.
KF the spinning highlight reel shot! I like it! We are really playing like a team tonight - great effort, great D, great passing!
A REALLY nice win which was needed. Tulsa is going to be a really tough game on the road. SIU will need to play at their best to win that game. I expect they'll be a 1.5-3pt dog on the road.

That’s what you do to a young, struggling team! Way to finish!

Our best game so far - especially the 2nd half. We play like that, we will win at Tulsa.
Nice, balanced scoring and minutes. Filewich played really well in his 11 minutes tonight - good to see.
Truly a team effort tonight, to be boring and cliche. Unselfish play, good D and a nice mix on offense. A bit of momentum, hopefully, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Brown returns at Tulsa.
D'Amico player of the game because of his total overall effort all over the floor glad to see this type of effort rewarded also as any other Saluki on post game very good interview
I have nothing against Filewich. I hope he steps it up. But through the first 9:30 minutes of his playing time, he had 2 points, 2 turnovers, and 1 rebound. The rest of his numbers came in garbage time. D'Avanzo had better numbers tonight.
And he never gets a rebound that he has to compete for (a rebound where he and an opponent both have hands on). He'll only come down with it if he alone has hands on it. I'm simply saying he should not be second in the rotation, but be third.
I'm not sayin' -- I'm just sayin'!
D'Avanzo should be second in the rotation. Filewich has no business playing right now. Can't play defense. Can't score. And honestly, is his vertical 12 inches? But at least he has alligator arms.
Sorry you can't see his talent. Don't sell this guy short. He has some skills. He and D'Amico are gonna be a nice tandem to watch next year.
A REALLY nice win which was needed. Tulsa is going to be a really tough game on the road. SIU will need to play at their best to win that game. I expect they'll be a 1.5-3pt dog on the road.
Tulsa isn't very good, but they did get by Little Rock at home. I think you are about right on the spread. It's a winnable game.
