WSU v SIU GAME THREAD

[1972Shocker]

Pretty good free throw defense by both the Aces and the Redbirds so far.

Ya' gotta love it; more classic coach Marshall one liners...

"Q. Don't you guys allow yourselves to daydream just a little bit? I know you've got to prepare for the next game, but wouldn't it be nice to maybe get Kentucky down the road? Do to them what they do to you?
COACH MARSHALL: Daydream?

Q. Yes.
COACH MARSHALL: I thought you said day drink.

Q. No, we don't want you day drinking.

FRED VANVLEET: I don't like to daydream. You end up missing a lot of your day. I'll just say that."

Here's a couple more that caught my eye... LOL!

"Q. Coach, how much do you let these guys have fun or treat this as strictly a business trip?
COACH MARSHALL: Probably more business. I'm not sure. I mean, they probably have fun in their dorm rooms or in their hotel rooms, but I don't bother them too much in there. We're not going to do much sightseeing.
The fun is winning."


And this nugget to end the presser:

"COACH MARSHALL: I'm thinking about going up in the Arch and taking the team out for a little sightseeing tonight.
THE MODERATOR: Thank you very much."

Coach Marshall is the master of sarcasm... he's simply one of the best.

Hopefully, his 2nd half play will give him the confidence that he can play aggressively at this level. He really did look good attacking the basket in the 2nd half.

Zach also plays pretty solid defense. With his length and athleticism couple with his ability to attack the basket and stretch the defense I would think the sky is the limit for young Mr. Brown.

The aspect that I noticed most was his comfort.

I am pretty disappointed in Henderson. That fireball first and pass second play is not going to get it with Coach Marshall.

I agree with you, but at least he shows the willingness to score that others have lacked. Having said that, let me say again; I agree with you.
