It was nice to see not only getting a lead and expanding the lead but putting the hammer down. Rienk and Terry were outstanding for the whole game. Just a well rounded effort on both ends. Hopefully we can bottle up this effort and take it east down I-74 on Sunday and kick some ISU Red butt.

I'm liking Kent more and more every day and Hickman is an extremely talented freshman. Montgomery got some minutes and he continues to look really athletic and I think he's going to be really good for us in the future, and lastly, Linke got more solid minutes. Great win and always fun to D2 a team (win by 30).
Like Big Mike stated though, Evansville appears to be really bad so we can't take too much from this win, but we'll take it anyway!Larry Bird
I've got a theory that if you give 100 percent all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.

Mast reminds me of Krutwig. Nice feet under the basket, has that little hook, and uses the board. Since he watched Krutwig his first year, and played against him the last two years, if that influenced him any?
Also Roberts is a very good player, but sometimes he needs to remember there a 4 other guys on the court with him.
Keep that intensity up, play smart, and bring a W back from Bloomington.
GO BRADLEY

Roberts has a similar style to Darrel Brown, he has the ability to take over games and will shoot 15-20 shots a game if you let him. When the shots fall they look good but when they don't the hero-ball is annoying.

We dominated at every facet of the game - can't recall when they even got an offensive board.
Roberts was real fun to watch, and great to see Mast dropping those 3s again!

AP was a great scorer and very smooth game, but he didn't make it look as easy as TR on days like this.
Let's hope Roberts doesn't have any more funk games of 4 pts.

Agree to an extent - Roberts has the ability to make difficult shots look easier than most, because he can make them. Not many of his shots are "bad" because he's capable of making shots so many different ways - more so than any other BU player I can remember in recent yrs.

Ditto LittleBrave. I don’t think he’s playing the hero and when he plays like he did last night he makes it look really easy. Let’s hope this team brings it on Sunday evening.
What I do hope to see is some rim rockin' from JHen in redbird arena on Sunday!Compete. Defend. Rebound. Win.
