Great job by Dave. I only saw the second half, but he was in control, making good decisions, and imposing himself on their bigs. IW great again. Off night for AJ. Great job by Ibn and really good contribution from Bebis.

Is it me or can they not run some type of offensive set? Welcome kavo! With the exception of the weave, since when has iona run a half court set. The program is built to run, gun, space out the court. Street ball, helter skelter style. |

Good second half, defense showed up in second half. Laury with an amazing last 10 minutes, put team on his back. Williams with an amazing first 32 minutes. Sed with a couple of big shots late. Aj just had an off night and they did a good job defending him. Cluess actually did a good job of getting others minutes, Bebis with 2 threes and Amayo made some nice passes during a few minutes in the first half. Hines despite no stats did bang with their bigs, gave us a big body which we needed against their size, Cluess chose him over Dublin, we needed someone with size to give Laury a blow and come in for IW when he got 4. Wasn't happy with some of the Missouri Valley refs calls. Needed to win this and did a nice job coming back from 15 down.

Gutsy win.....Indiana State played their best game all year...We took their best shots in the early rounds but though we were not at our best we never lost our composure...A tough loss for them, but I think they will be much better team for it...
Some of our fans may not like it, but that's the way we play...Exciting, but nerve racking basketball.....

If we can get the effort Bebis gave today from a total of 3 bench players each game, we'll be fine.

The program is built to run, gun, space out the court. Street ball, helter skelter style. Thanks for the greeting java. I hear you, they are built a certain way, ...but its just so frustrating seeing them in the 1st half jog to a spot and sit there. Often, no solid screens or picks and very little ball movement. I saw very little ball support in the 1st half, ....not to mention, how many times does a shot go up and no one is under the basket to even have a chance to get a rebound |

Run out of steam and no better half court set than the other guys. |

Good win against a good team..did a good job getting it to under 10 by half..AJ had his worst game ever and we still WON. Don't worry...be happy..IS shot lights out in first half.

good job by cluess using bench today, aj atrocious 2 games in a row on defense and with the ball, lat game kept shooting and got real hot today not, but his defense gets williams and laury into foul trouble,
we have enough weapons that he should sit when he is a t/o machine just to calm down
bebis gave us a spark, hynes might have 0 numbers but he sets picks, boxes out and doesn't do anything stupid to hurt us

I'm guessing but it looked like the game plan was to stop AJ. But then 3 other guys stepped up.

Great game plan by Tim and staff. Exploit Laury mismatch, switch D up here and there. Bebis had a really nice day - great energy and enthusiasm. Was certainly nervous after that first half. But Isaiah is one helluva leader.

Isaiah does all the things that pick us up at key times...big rebound, awesome follow up dunks, big defensive plays, crucial 3pointers. I love this guy!
