Thought they were going to be a little bit more competitive, but what was that m Look I can’t blame a team that has lost 19 and soon to be 21 games by next games to start mailing it in. Losing absolutely sucks and it does become habitual. Problem is we can’t play the rest of the games for the future because this staff recruited absolutely no one worth playing. It is what it is but this program right now is just awful!

Apparently to get the 5th on Mitchell one of our players is gonna have to start bleeding or something. I can see how Powell is getting frustrated because he's getting called for fouls but not getting the calls on the other end. The refs are letting it be physical and that’s bad for us. They are much bigger. They were letting them be more physical and then calling us for the same thing that was happening on the other end.

I expected a loss but I was hoping for a better game. We just plain missed too many shots. They are probably the 2nd best team in the league and we are…not. We need shooters for next year. Hernandez and Mielke were both off today and no one else really hit anything from the field. AJ had a decent game but he was alone today. It counts the same as a 1 point loss so I’m not crying over it. The ladies are the team to follow for USI this year. The men’s team just has waaaaaaay too many weaknesses. Need to recruit like never before to get this straightened out.

I thought the result was about what I expected. LR is really good now that they got all their players eligible and finding their groove.
Mitchell is at his 4th school in 4 years. Welcome to the current NCAA. He probably had a covid year so why not make it 5 schools in 5 years.
OVC tourney still possible and I would consider that a successful year.

SEMO led SIUE most of the game but ended up losing. SEMO win would have hurt but now we still control our destiny.

Well,I guess I will just salute ULR for a nice rebound season. Walker may have saved his job. This is a year I am semi-glad the portal exist....we need an overhaul for sure, at every position.

Bad day for USI legacy. Our Screaming Eagles looked awful, Pearl and his team laid an egg at home against UK and this biggest scumbag in NCAA history in Calipari. Also likely lost their best player to a knee injury. And Swope crapped the bed against SIUC, officially making the MVC a one bid league. He looked awful tonight.

I’m still pumped about the women winning the regular season title,but the guys just are not a good team this year. I watched the ISU game and they miss Kent more than any other single factor. Swope didn’t really do much or take many shots. Without Kent they looked out of synch again in their 2nd straight loss. Amazing how 1 guy can make or break a team. This loss ensures the MVC to one bid now so if your a MVC fan it’s not what you want to see.
