UNI playing without starter Nate Heise, lost to a pretty good U. of San Francisco team 75-69 in their opening game of Hall of Fame Classic in Kansas City, MO-

Nate Heise suffered a hand injury in practice, and will be out for 4-6 weeks (broken bone?). That's a tough blow for UNI, since they are not a deep team. Bradley's first Valley game is Nov. 30 at home against UNI.
Illinois State lost to LSU 77-61 in the opening round of the Cayman Islands Classic-

It was not as close as the score indicates. LSU lead by 27 points at halftime (45-18 ), and were never really threatened.
Former Manual and U of Illinois player Adam Miller had 13 points, and former Murray State big man KJ Williams, who was the OVC Player of the Year last season, had 33 points & 8 rebounds for LSU.
Indiana State stayed undefeated at 4-0 by beating previously unbeaten East Carolina 79-75 in their first game of the Gulf Coast Showcase in Estero, Florida-

Tarleton, in their 3rd season in Division I, is coached by former Kentucky coach Billy Gillispie. They have already beaten Belmont and Boston College to advance to the championship. Drake beat Buffafo and Wyoming to advance. -

And only 1 rebound. That will continue to be a problem, even when they get Heise back. They are just not very deep and lack size and rebounding. They need others to contribute, because they aren't going to get 30 points out of Betz and Duax many nights.Originally posted by Nashville Cat View PostComment

UNI has never said specifically what the injury was that guard Nate Heise suffered, but he was scheduled to return to playing Wednesday in their game against Missouri State in Cedar Falls.Originally posted by Da Coach on 11/21/22 View Post
However, now UNI is reporting that Heise's injury has not healed sufficiently, and he underwent surgery today.
He will not play the rest of this season. Another tough blow for UNI.

Man, tough break for UNI. I feel bad for Jacobson, but he'll right that ship in no time. Still one of the best coaches around.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.Comment

UNI is going to be good next year. They're playing freshman and sophomore almost exclusively this year.Comment
