We don't have a lot of chances for resume builders with this non-con schedule, but Indiana was definitely one of them. Gonna be big for the young players' confidence.

I actually sit down and watched a whole game. Just to watch Gafford.

Just imagine if our young shooters would have gotten hot down the stretch.

We missed a lot of open 3s today and shot really poorly overall from deep. We would have blown Indiana out had we shot better than 26%.

That being said, Indiana shot 40% from 3 and we still won. This is the kind of game we would have lost in the past.

Could end up being a quad one win and the only other one that has a chance of that is Texas Tech.

I'm impressed with how hard they play. They spend some energy on defense. It's fun to watch.

This could be Anderson's best defensive team.

They had a big Slobberin' Hog flag today and the logo on the scoreboard was SH. Would be awesome to get him back on the court, and now we have an AD that will entertain the idea.

Definitely the best roster he has had in regards to buying in and doing what he wants them to do.

for sure. Sills needs to get adjusted quick on offense and Jones has a lot to improve on defense.

really need to see some of the bench guys get better fast, but its only three games in and two of the games have been against pretty good teams.

good to have to some easier games coming up for the freshman to get more comfortable, though western kentucky could be a tough game.

This team is going to be very hard to handle a little later down the road. I mean, they already are, but they're only going to get better. These guys play smart. Backdoor cuts, drawing charges off the ball, numerous steals by multiple guards...These guys can ball.

We need Reggie Chaney to come along. It may take a bit of time, but he will get there. He has a soft touch and great power. Just needs to settle down a bit when he faces the basket.

Guard play just needs to step up offensively a bit. I think with experience and time we'll be alright.

True but one of my favorite plays was when Sills got the steal on defense and got fouled. You could see him going to every single player to pump them up. That is the energy we need of the bench.

ya, he clearly brings alot to the team. got that championship attitude.

but if hes a liability offensively we wont be able to consistently rely on his defense. he'll get there.

He also had a really nice play when the game got close where he drove inside and got a sick dish to Gafford inside for a dunk that really swung the momentum. He had a big impact today.

Bailey needs to stop with the worst timed shots thing he's got going on.

Harris needs to learn to use his left hand on a layup.

Joe just keep shooting.

Gabe pull your head out of your arse.

Dan please for the love of God learn how to shoot a free throw.

Although we couldn't have finished the 2nd half better with the lead, it really didn't feel like the young guys ever got rattled. I know it was a home game but we have seen players freeze up when the other team makes a run in the past.
