Im more of an offense fan by nature, but the defense was really fun to watch tonight. I’m guessing that’s the most forced shot clock violations in a long time.

It's been a wild transition from Hoiball to Otzlburgerball, it's been fun watching the fans in Hilton appreciating good defense, it took about 3 games into TJs 1st year for the live crowd to get it.

I thought he was good. Complimentary, knowledgeable and did his homework. That's all you can ask.
Settles does a good job. I guess I’ve liked him since a few years ago he said on KXNO he was excited to go watch a game at Hilton, though he thought he’d have to get over flashbacks from Kelvin Cato swatting his shots 12 rows deep.

Was anyone else incredibly underwhelmed by Cincy’s crowd?
7 rows behind the Cincy Bench.

Students on both ends.

As intimate as they try to make that arena, it was not hostile.

in their credit, half of the lower level has some sort of club access and a public bar with viewing on one end of the lower level.

Made the fans soft. When you give them easy access to beer and nachos and can sit up in the club and watch.

Just my take.

Cory Lucious
Nick Wieler Babb
DeAndre Kane

Might have missed a few.
Without thinking too much about it I would say at least half of those aren't point guards, but that's definitely a list of guards that played at ISU.

He doesn't take himself too seriously, which I appreciate. He played incredibly hard as a player and got about as much as he could have out of his talent. His biggest sin besides being a hawk obviously was being kind of a doorknob and sticking around forever which is the norm now. He was just ahead of his time.
