vs UIC (1-11) - Wednesday, 2/7/2024 - 7 pm - ESPN+/Marquee Network

[Birgs]

Pedon apologists? Didn’t you want Yaklich to get this job? If anything, there are more Yak apologists than Pedon apologists on this board.

The Birds win by double digits tonight and Yak finished last in the Valley.

If, indeed, I ever mentioned Yak, I was clearly talking out of my ass, as I doubt I would suggest hiring someone "too close to home" especially after what Dan went through. As far as his body of work at UIC - unfortunately, "ouch" for sure.

Granted, yes, I was and am guilty of being a Muller apologist. You got undeniably got me there.

I am interested to see the starting 5 tonight. I could see Mal back in there starting with Burford coming off the bench. Would love to see JK starting as well.

Went to the uic siu battle. Rivera playing well. We could be in big trouble if he has a big night. He is a tough match up for us due to size and length vs our guards.

Burford in a boot- hell, Chico State would be a problem, let alone Chicago Circle

Just saw that news…that uic plus 4 looking real good

Need Kinziger, Walker, and Pence to step up. Need Mal to keep hitting shots. Must own the paint!

 

[KingO]

So tired of the switching but good on kinziger tying up the big guy

Can somebody smarter than me explain how this keeps happening?

Last shot of the half and we let banks just go 1 on 1 lol nice we hit some 3s at least

and you were expecting something else?

Lots of hacking going uncalled, both ways.

 

[78redbirdfan]

Seven assists on nine field goals. That at least is an improvement with the passing.

I think Walker was fouled at least 3 times on an earlier drive.

That was a bad shot at the end of the half. It was a Michael Jordan shot- and Michael wasn't taking it.

Doesn’t get much better than Banks eating 20 seconds and miss badly on fadeaway. He’s Pedon security blanket for whatever reason.

 

[ILLST25]

Ty Pence looked a lot better when he was hoopin against Cornerstone Christian

 

[Bird Friend]

Hell with hitting treys . . . we can't even hit inside 5 feet.

 

[WoodlandWarrior]

Kasubke can’t guard his man.

 

[ISU86]

Essentially only playing six men with Pence and Walker seeing limited minutes. Look for legs to go out unless something changes.

 

[KingO]

Uic doubles down low, every time. Yet everyone stands behind the defenders while foster fights for room.

 

[Manchester Matt]

I was clearly wrong earlier. I’m tired of this crap.
