Player of the Week- Ron Baker
Newcomer of the Week- Indiana State's Brenton Scott
also of interest - this posting by the AD at SIU... I like this kind of openness by an AD..
takes on issues that most schools pretend don't exist - helps explain & reassure fans about SIU's basketball downturn.
If I were an SIU fan - this simple effort by the AD would go a long way to reassuring me that they see the problem and are working to fix it,
and that they are not pretending it doesn't exist and blaming fans for being unhappy.
And this message is plain, simple, and right to the point instead of mumbo-jumbo, double-speak we see elsewhere pretending we're better than we've ever been since the Mitchell Anderson/David Thirdkill era.

Since the league expanded to
its current 10-team format in 1997, only
one team that has played in the opening
round has reached the semifinals (won
two games). Bradley, seeded a No. 7 in
1998, beat 10th-seeded Drake and then it
toppled No. 2 seed Creighton, before falling
in the semifinals to Missouri StateComment
