WSU vs. Southern Illinois Game Thread

Unable to watch or listen much last night...Connor's game from the stat sheet looked pedestrian...were they shadowing him more than normal?

He didn't seem to take very many shots, and missed on a fair % of those, never got his shot going. Other than that he played well, grabbed a couple of rebounds and maybe even a block from behind that he didn't get credit for. Seems like he was on the bench when the offense had good runs.

People focus on Conner's scoring ... I think this stat below needs more attention.

Conner has played 264 minutes this year and has THREE turnovers.

A big part of that low number is that he isn't playing with aggression. He doesn't look to attack or pass in a high risk high reward situation. To me it is a sign that he needs to start playing a bit more downhill.

1. Congrats, Coach.

2. Frankamp won't shoot or can't get his shot, I dunno.

3. but he needs to shoot.

4. Officials sucked. Polar opposite of the UE game.

5. Crowd was very good.

6. About 45 minutes before the game, Hamilton made an "oh-my-God" dunk.

7. Spilled my damn Sierra Mist.

8. Our 3's guard the other teams' 2's, but only cause our 2 can guard their 3's.

9. On the radio interview, Brown really praised the ability of Peyton Allen.

10. Not our best game, but we shot it well.

No other valley coach voted for Fred to be on the Cousy list?

How petty is that to not vote FVV to spite WSU? I hope FVV sticks it to every one of them the rest of the way.

That was a Barry Joke.

You thought it was a joke? I didn't get it, then. He seemed pretty unhappy about it.

Not "my wife voted for him" unhappy, but unhappy nonetheless.

Check your meter. That was just Barry trolling the other coaches in the league.

It's not a coach voted award.

It absolutely was. He said it in the spirt of hey Fred don't take it out on me and my team I "voted" for you.

You don't actually believe the valley coaches voted on that award do you? I don't know who does but I can bet it's not the valley coaches.

Hope this post doesn't prove to be a jinx but don't look now but Evan is 8-17 (47%) on 3 pointers in the last 4 games. Not sure he can sustain that but I hope he has a strong finish to close out his winning career.

I didn't even think about whether it was a coach voted award. That's really funny.

Oh Barry... trolled me. :-)

Gotta love Barry Hinson! http://thesouthern.com/sports/video-...cf6f02ee0.html

I've said if SIU ever fires him I want him doing press conferences for WSU.

on the subject of the Anthem...I don't suppose a version of last nights' actually exists? Love to see the players with the respect....

Speaking of officials, why didn't they go to the monitor at the end of the first half.

I think they can only do that in the last two minutes of regulation. Since they both missed it the correct call is a jump ball.
