highlights from the game today, it was really amazing to see how many points INS scored in the paint vs. ILS today, even the smaller INS guards were taking it right in the paint and scoring.

Impressive win after a long road trip. Trees really coming on over the past 2 weeks. Not looking forward to the trip to Terre Haute in a few weeks.

Trees this year are your archetypal, grunt and hard-working kind of Valley team that will bite you once you give an inch.

Trees have just enough skill, size and athleticism to be dangerous. They added some nice pieces to compliment the returners in Arop, Smith and Cummings.

Odum is a big, smart PG. I know a lot of people aren't high on him, but I'm a big fan. He's a great passer, has great floor vision, can score and even rebound. There are not to many PGs in the league with that package.

Arop was a nice upgrade over the talent there.

The question will be in the post. However, with the way the games are reffed in conference season - little guys are allowed to beat up on bigs without repercussions in the terms of foul calls or anything else - InSU could be very dangerous.

This team was very raw to start the season. There were a lot of questions surrounding this team with the additions of Arop and K. Smith and how the offense would perform. The loss to Morehead State may end up costing us dearly but hopefully we can get a good bracketbuster matchup to prove that game was a fluke. If we would have won that game, I think there would be a strong possibility of an at-large bid with 12-13 conf. wins but that loss was just awful.

I hear what you are saying but I think it means a lot more to get a couple of neutral court wins against middle of the pack BCS teams and playing the MWC leaders extremely tough then one bad loss. A strong conference showing and BB win will definitely have you guys right there. :Cheers:

BB won't be helping you or anyone else from the Valley much in its last and thankfully final year.
