Mahorcic to start . . . as he should.

F_CK YEAH!!

 

[TIMMY]

My Daughter lives about a half-hour from BSU. In a normal year.... Damn this pandemic.
Let's get a win!

 

[ILLST25]

Mahorcic to start . . . as he should.

Will get his first career double-double as well.

Howard Fleming Jr. eager to stay on the court as Illinois State travels to face Ball State

Illinois State freshman guard Howard Fleming Jr. is hoping to avoid the injury bug which curtailed him during high school as Redbirds head to Ball State.

I like that Dusan is starting. The competition for the 4 spot should be heating up in practice. Should be fun watching this team grow.

I think ISU wins this game 76-68

 

[Redbird222]

I watched Ball St play UIC. They played decent defense and announcers said they were one of the better teams defensive efficiency prior years. Their 3 point shooting wasn't great. I think it will be a competitive game

BS Birds 67
Redbirds 64

 

[ILLST25]

Let’s go birds! All I care about this season is continued growth and improvement.

 

[WoodlandWarrior]

Awful start.. Can’t guard the 3 point shooter (12 points already) and apparently can’t adjust.

 

[Redbird222]

Where is Reeves? He's sat for a long time. Horne looks slow today

 

[V Boy]

We are really poorly coached

 

[JHBird]

Boyd hasn't played this well since early last season..

 

[Rollbirds]

Boyd hasn't played this well since early last season..

Why is he sitting out now

 

[V Boy]

I cannot believe how bad of a defensive team we are.

 

[SoCalRedbird]

I get why Muller's pissed. Bad defense. Minimal teamwork. Weak rebounding. Poor off ball positioning.

But why no emotional reaction whatsoever from the players?

 

[WoodlandWarrior]

We cannot defend. At this rate Ball State will score 90-100 points. i thought maybe we were turning the Corner, but we are not.

 

[MadBird]

Agree with all of the above, bad D, don't we have any plays on offense, pass the ball around some before someone chucks one up.

In the meantime, ISUblue is leading Purdue at Purdue.

 

[JHBird]

Why is he sitting out now

He's coming off of injury/sickness. He'll probably be minimized this game.

We must lead the nation in layups allowed.

 

[Redbird222]

I cannot believe how bad of a defensive team we are.

Agreed .... its sickening to watch us play defense

 

[CaliRdBrd]

We cannot defend. At this rate Ball State will score 90-100 points. i thought maybe we were turning the Corner, but we are not.

What in the hell made you think that? 30 years of horseshit and a junior high school coach is not a recipe for successful.
