MU/Illini Game Thread

[Johnny B]

are we going to press 100% of the time every game?

[jesmu84]

That'll about do it.

Don't have the offense to get back in this one. But I was encouraged by what I've seen. Little progress every day

[MuggsyB]

Danger time.

[The Sultan]

I didn't know you could pass the ball to yourself and kick it out for a 3

As long as the ref judges it a shot, you can grab your own airball in college. Not in NBA.

Good news: I still really like what I see from Joplins stroke

Bad news: Doesnt go in very often yet.

Another guy with potential I see though

[Markusquette]

Team has no beef up front. Both Kuath and Oso are sticks.

[MuggsyB]

Too much to overcome with their 2nd shots. I'm encouraged with some of the open threes we're getting, the kids need to knock them dowm.

[MUEng92]

Well, the first half sucked less than I expected.  That's all I've got.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Thought that three by Joplin was going to go and instead we give up another second chance three at the other end. Bad, bad six point swing.

Rebounding rebounding rebounding

Pathetic butter finger performance on the boards. Really disappointing

Thanks I did not know that

Agreed.

[Afroman]

Marquette recently signed two guards.
Not just this season, but who is rebounding on this team in the seasons going forward?

39-22 IL as of this post

[TSmith34, Inc.]

-17 on the boards right now

[MUeng]

The lack of rebounding is killing us. Team showing some gri though. Morsell has some game

Yes but Lewis and maybe O-Max, Morsell, have to get D rebs

[GB Warrior]

This was the first time in a long time I really enjoyed watching the process of Marquette basketball in a game where Markus or Roswey weren't going absolute bonkers.

This was a very promising step forward. Don't have the ponies yet, but they will. Kam Jones, among other young guys, played some fearless minutes tonight.

Another D reb we couldn't get.  Absolutely killing us.

[PGsHeroes32]

Good news: Got a rebound

Bad news: Called for a foul

[Markusquette]

No doubt. Just having more strength and size helps.

[CountryRoads]

Don't think we have quite enough in the tank tonight, but I love the effort of this team. We will be pretty good by the end of the year I think.

[MuggsyB]

On the bright side Morsell is a stud.   Time for him to take over the game.
