    Agreed. Those were very big. Same with ES's. But he absolutely wanted to shove it down the boobirds' throats.

      No doubt. ES held on to that ball and waited for the foul. F the IU fans. Classless.

  • Dennis! That was an incredible performance on both ends!

    McDuffie shot the lights out in the first half and hit timely shots in the second.

    Samaje came in and settled the team down and hit huge shots in the second half. Both him and Stevenson were key to handling the pressure late when Burton couldn’t be trusted.

    If Stevenson can make this his baseline effort then he’s going to be a nice guy to have around the next three years.

    Big Midt has a lot he can improve on but after seeing the leaps he made this year I’m really excited about what he’s able to do right now as well as his future.

    Not Echinique’s best game but he got some big boards and a couple nice blocks. He carried the team some the last couple games, nice to see the team pick him up.

    Keep your head up Burton, we’ll need you to win these next couple games.

        • Dennis defense in the first half was legendary.

          In the 2nd half his offense came to play.

          McDuffie nailed some huge shots as well.

          • I don't know what I'm more happier about. Winning and going to NYC, or reading this thread starting from the end of the game and no one is bitching about how a player played after a win.

            OK, it's absolutely winning the game, but the second part is nice!

              Cold, you're actually proud of yourself? It's one thing to discuss your concerns, but this verges on narcissism.

              You show your bipolar ability by complaining about our seniors and how coach lets them do whatever they want, but then agree Marshall's earned every bit of his salary?

              Drink a beer and be happy w/ success. The beginning of the year sucked as should've been expected (not desired, but expected). We had 9 players coming in this year who never played a minute of D1 ball and two brand new assistants. Two of our three "experienced" players had only played 200 and 80 minutes in D1.

              Now we've won 14 of 17 games (I believe the last 3 would've been Q1 wins) and headed to NYC. Bitching now just look petty.

              My father told me many stories about Warren Armstrong back in the '60s. Dennis seems to be a lot of what Armstrong possessed.

                I hope that DD can develop the same attitude that WA had. Better get out of the way because I'm coming through. And Armstrong was STRONG. DD has to get a lot stronger to get to Armstrong level. All that said, I'm excited as hell to see DD progress and improve. He's fun to watch.

                The thing that usually gets overlooked with Warren probably due to his superman athleticism was that he was a great passer. Not a good passer, but a great passer.

            • That was really really fun. Keep moving up!

              • DD played 38 minutes against Clemson. Did he ever come off the floor tonight?
                His defense on the others teams stud is becoming Cotton-esqe. He plays hard BOTH ends of the floor every second he is out there.

                It takes a certain player to understand what HCGM wants and expects to be part of his team. DD and ES are figuring it out.

                That is all.
                Above all, make the right call.
