Speaking of which, is there any update on Hawkins? Hopefully that doesn't continue to linger much longer.

I think DAP and Lynch are back close to 100%, is that right?

Matt Shaw. Played for SIU. Much hyped out of high school by Saluki fans on the old board as someone who would dominate the league. Decent player, nothing too special.

It's pretty simple. Muller ran the score up on Giacaletti. Marshall didn't. As Muller matures as a coach, he may someday learn to have the class that Marshall displays.

ISUr was without 3 players and still none of the starters played more than 26 minutes. This is just patently untrue. ISUr absolutely steamrolled Drake while WSU struggled at times. You and I may not agree with the comparison made, but there's no need to completely destroy the truth.

I think Hawkins is just in wait and see mode as those stress reaction injuries are tricky to deal with. Just taking it day by day is my understanding.

I'd say Lynch is getting there but back issues come and go as well so some days he probably feels really good and other days not so much

Purcell should be close to 100% now, if anything just needs to work off some of the rust from sitting out.

Thanks. Lynch looked pretty normal in the WSU game until he took two pretty bad falls, one directly on his back. Hopefully he heals up. Those things can be difficult to get healed during the conference grind when you never get a week off.

Seems to me Giacoletti is positioning himself to get the Redbird coaching job. That sneaky son of a gun.

Last time Drake played at Redbird ISU won 81-45
Last time Drake played at Koch WSU won 83–54

I don't think he was able to. It's comments like this why a lot of people in the Valley hate Wichita instead of root for them, which gives success and attention to the conference... :Bam:

I believe the context was regarding depth, 1 vs 1 (FVV vs Lee), 2 vs 2 (Baker vs Knight) through 12 vs 12, ISU would win the majority of the matchups. Much ado about nothing, all I would care about is winning. I do find it interesting that a few WSU fans seem to get worked up over anything ISU.
