A win is a win but I’m so tired of the bad free throw shooting, its been our biggest weakness all year.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Porter should tell the students to use the “you let the whole team down chant” on our own team. I believe that would solve things in a hurry. Just like the old days in Catholic school, the beatings will continue until morale improves.

That was probably a foul on Marquise on that last play. I'd be pretty upset if a similar thing play happened to us.

But really, no excuses it should have come down to that. The putrid free throw shooting allowed Valpo back in it. We need a killer instinct.

@Evansville next. They have been playing better, taking SIU to OT and playing @Bradley tough over their last two games. Need to be ready.

We dodged a bullet when Freeman-Liberty went elsewhere what a belligerent punk. He didn't believe he made a single foul in the entire game, and protested every foul. He shook his finger at the ref walking off the court, I guess blaming them. He was pushing and shoving Lucas every time he got a chance. The refs didn't miss 17 shots against us and shoot 30% from the field in two games.

Wow.... I need to watch the replay to see the last play again.

I’m tired of the poor free throw shooting.

Why is Pipkins in the doghouse? There has to be something to this.

Why did Frank not get in the game?

I’m glad we won but I am interested in the playing time.

Now at least I know how this game almost got away! A force almost as strong as the CBS Sports Network curse!

We shot 58.7% while moving, dribbling and being guarded (sometimes double-teamed) at various points on the floor, and we shot 42.9% standing alone 15 feet from the basket.

Good to get back on track. Porter must’ve seen the close game winning stat and told the team to let Valpo back in so he could boost his percentage!

Porter is big on matchups. I have to imagine there was something that led him to play small (not playing Frank) and playing Bruno instead of Pipkins.

Or maybe they had some injuries. Guess we'll see
