Report card.....

Why do they keep giving us A's on our report cards? That's pretty liberal grading. Overall A-?? Just because we won? Haha, I don't know if we were this good tonight.

I was there and any road win in the valley without an injury to BU deserves an A in my book! The D' holds INS to 1 field goal in the last 8 minutes ...on the road! You will not dominate very often on any Valley teams home court!

Nice to win another road game. I understand what many posters are worried about with our 3-pt shooting and free-throws. It's been a consistent problem. But then again, there have been games where our free-throws have almost been perfect and 3-pt shooting decent. So, that'll come and go.

Finally though, this team is living up to what Coach Les was preaching early in the season --defense! That's been looking great, and it will definitely keep us in games when our shooting might be off. Even when we have off shooting nights, our team doesn't look rattled.

WE HAVE GOTTA START HITTING FREE THROWS!

Haven't we done better the last 5 games or so save for last nite? I would offer its just as blip and blame the arena.....that background has to be a *****. Lets see if they can get it back at SIU.

Maybe all of those empty seats were a distraction. SIU should be much different

Funny story from last night......a INS season ticket holder laughed when we questioned the "jump ball over-rules call from the ref @ half court, thus givving a 2 shot foul to INS with the Braves only having 4 fouls......we here in Indiana foul #4 is 2 free throws!"
Then he asked what we paid for our tickets....they were $25 and he laughed saying that his season tickets were only $48 a year! He said if they were more they wouldn't get the 4200 season average a game they get! There was only about 1500-1800 people on the stands...just a guess on my part but WOW! Makes you appreciate the BU home crowd a lot more! "D Oh yeah...for those still wanting a football team...INS went 0-12 last season only lossing just over 1 million dollars!

[Big Mike]

interesting stat.......the Braves are 11-0 when holding the opponents under 70 pts!

[Bradleyguy10]

The Braves are also 8-0 when shooting above 70% for free throws, or something like that.

ISU(blue) needs to drop football and pour all of that money into their BB program.

maybe this is a dumb question...but do they have a soccer team....I don't remember?

maybe this is a dumb question...but do they have a soccer team....I don't remember?

Indiana State has women's soccer, but they do not have men's soccer. This is commonly the case with football schools, to comply with Title IX and keep the number of scholarship athletes even.
Illinois State, Wichita State, Northern Iowa, and Southern Illinois also do not have men's soccer.
In fact, the only state school among the 10 MVC basketball schools that does field a men's soccer team is Missouri State.
