Hey Redbird 2000. Any word on Foster as the week ends? Thanks.

Anyone know Burford’s health status?

Another patented long period of time where we struggle to score….over 5 minutes with only 1 field goal to rnd the half. Maybe Coach should have burned some sage in Valpo’s gym.

That’s two passes Banks has thrown badly while driving inside. Take the 10 foot shot Dalton!!!!

My frustration with this offense is the idea of taking the ball to the whole and then seemingly not knowing what to do with it, so we throw a wild pass out to the perimeter that is sometimes successful sometimes goes to our opponents! I would much rather we pull up and shoot a 12 foot jumper...

222 has the some of the same thoughts that I do. Next time we have BU (later this month in Peoria), I am suggesting the following defensively. Don’t follow Hannah ( or the Serbian or Kyle Thomas) out when they set perimeter screens. Darius Burford can stay with Deen one on one, but he either...

This is the worst off the ball defense in some time. Was anything in the scouting report regarding how Darius Hannah rolls to the bucket on a pick and roll? Did the scouting report show how BU guards go back door the hole? The defensive off ball IQ of our team is horrible.

Someone has already alluded to this but we need to recruit over Kasubke, Poindexter and Banks. Two thirds of the season over, we know what the current players can do. Though I like Lewis’ rebounding, he has to have 6-8 points a game to make an impact. Start Foster, Walker, Kinziger, Davis and...

Actually Bradley is very good. They play great defense and are very patient on offense. They are a little thin at guard, so if you can get a couple fouls on Hickman early in the game, their offensive flow is hurt. They most likely will lose in Terre Haute and Des Moines, but may be able to eke...

Did not have a chance to see the game, but noticed in the box score that Lewis did not start, and reportedly only played 13 minutes. It seemed that he and Foster were playing well together the last 10 games…was Lewis not feeling well or was this a coaching decision?

There are a couple of ways to attack this moving forward. My first thought has already been mentioned earlier… pound the ball inside and space accordingly just within the arc and pass out if needed. Or when driving the lane, take the 12 foot shot. We average approximately 65 possessions a...

I have been watching Redbird basketball for 60+ years. This is the worst half ever. Listless, no energy and the worst shooting ever. Normal Community would score more than 20 points in a half against Valpo.

Avoiding Thursday would be awesome, but probably not practical this year. We will not finish in the top 4 thereby avoiding Thursday. Just hoping for a .500 conference season and catching lightning in a bottle in STL!!

Double D, please tell us what you know. Zobrist family not happy with current staff?

Malik Dia is a load for Belmont.

In our last three games, our opponents have shot 44%, 48% and 52% from three. This cannot be just a coincidence. Granted some of those shots in all three games were still defended well, but they still go in! We need a continued focus on three point defense and we need to have two people step up...

Boy, I am going to suggest we try to hire Metamora High School head basketball coach Danny Grieves to be our offensive Coordinator. His teams run a wonderful flowing pass and cutting offense that wears teams down. A small town Central Illinois Team that regularly beats Chicago powerhouse...

Can we hold open tryouts for a 3 point shooter?? Our staff better be scouring every NAIA team, every D-2 , hell every D-3 team to find JUST 2 decent 3 point shooters. JUST FIND SOMEONE!!!!

Watch Brian Wardle at BU yank players….. he has Pedon beat in that respect!!

Sorry I guess it was Normalbird giving Maya props! My bad!
