Pull this off and I will MAYBE start to believe the talent is more than just on paper. Good luck

Need to win this tournament to (sorta) make up for the home loss. Redbirds kinda got screwed when LSU and Clemson took a dump in their openers down there.

I realize Vegas has them as a slight dog but this is a game ISUr should and needs to win.

Ill State up 24-10 w/8 to go in first half. Great zone defense so far, generating 9 turnovers so far

33-24 ISUr up at the break.

Redbirds up 33-24 at half. Our 1-3-1/2-3 zone tandem type thing gave them fits for most of half til they hit a couple threes and layups late in half. Reggie recorded his 100th career block, and our scoring was pretty balanced between everyone.

Knight 5 points 6 boards 4 assists
Hawkins 8 points
Purcell- 4 points

Good half ISUr. I need to see more, but MAYBE just MAYBE there is some hope after all. Time will tell. Finish this one out, beat Seton Hall and I might believe....

Redbirds just scratching the surface of their potential. Not sure how close they will get to their ceiling, but lots of room.

Why doesn't Muller play Man-to-Man? It seems so obvious that he should be running at least 50% MTM with this group.

Show glimpses of big potential but have to learn to play for all 40 minutes. To contend for first place in conference and win big games can't have lapses for a couple minutes in each half like we tend to do so far thru this early season
