Great news coming out of that preview that AJ Ferguson has been practicing. Wouldn't be surprised to see Davis start and AJ come off the bench to ease him back into action. I think he will end up starting again eventually though. We could really use him against the long athletic guards and wings of UIC.https://twitter.com/siu_basketball/status/1740897101020586358?s=46&t=7s0hTttieSER8wqRSA0LoA

Really interested to see how the rotation shakes out with 12 scholarship guys now available, if Ferguson is indeed back. He could be a very key piece at both ends of the floor once he gets his sea legs back and will give Mullins a lot of versatility to work with. Southern’s depth should be in a very good place. I do hope Davis still gets close to 20 minutes a game because he is a winning player.
The Dawgs could win every game by 20 and people would find something to complain aboutUIC isn’t a pushover. If SIU overlooks them and doesn’t come prepared to play they’ll embarrass themselves. Play Hensley and Ebube and good things happen. Rebound! Rebound! Rebound!
If memory serves me right, we defeated the UIC Flames by 2 last year at home, and were in a decisive battle at their place. UIC ( 7-5 ) has won some good games this season, but have recently fallen off some. It is also the start of league play, so most certainly anything can happen. There's going to be some rust after not playing for over a week. I just hope when the Salukis win by only 7 or 8 points people on this fan message board don't do the usual complaining.
SIU 74 UIC 65
GO DAWGS!
They literally do. Playing time! WAHH!! Lol
You're saying that playing XJ for these minutes is not only sustainable, but a good idea.
'Nuff said.
Crikey.
(Inflammatory political snark)
SIU -6.5. Vegas does not think it will be a blow out.
in the words of boromir in fellowship of the ring, “it is but a gift”
A few people on this board love to tell other people how to be fans
AJ Ferguson is back tonight per Saluki Radio
Great news for Ferguson any news on Cade

Cade's not there again apparently. Still haven't heard why other than it might be surgery-related.
Looks like a big crowd on the broadcast
X on fire as usual, 9 points through 7 minutes.
Why is grabbing the net not goal tending ?

I'm not sure I get what goaltending is anymore and I hate the reviews on them
X and Rupert both have been great so far and good to see AJ back in the mix. Would like to see Ebube get a shot to build on his recent strong play.
