Don't care how bad we beat the blue cats, I just hope Cam, Wiggy, and Solo can each get in at least 10 quality minutes.
That may have some merit given how many last minute additions we have before conference play. But Talley is in one of those lineups. Conditt and Lard can battle in practice for the 10th spot.
Babb/Lewis/Shayok/Talley/Jacobson
Haliburton/Wigginton/THT/Lard/Young
That 2nd lineup would be awful.
I don’t think THT will go to the bench, but LW, Shayok, and THT are all ball dominant guards. I’d think you’d try to rotate their bench minutes so 2 are always on the floor, but most of the time not all 3 at once.
Nope, we play Eastern Illinois. Our game vs. Saturday is on Monday.
I thought we were playing on sunday. Ready for Big 12 play so we can get back to a somewhat regular schedule
Get the W, get out healthy. It'd be nice to get 10-15 quality minutes out of Cam Lard but we'll see what happens.
The second lineup by design was supposed to be worse as that second group would be getting less minutes. I’d play the first group in 7 minute stretches and then the second group in 3 minute stretches. I don’t think Prohm will go with 2 different lineups though. He’ll probably just keep his best 6 getting the majority of the minutes and giving the 7-9 spots a few minutes.That 2nd lineup would be awful.

Are these the Salukis? If not, can we petition to get all the Illinois directional teams to change their name to the Salukis?
I have cyclones.tv but can't watch the game live. How long does it normally take them to post a replay?
I agree with you but let's be realistic. If we don't win by 30 tonight, hold them to < 50, see Lard get 20+ minutes, see LW score 35, have 20 assists between NWB and Haliburton and shoot > 40% from long range - season is over and there will be calls for CSP's head.
Unfortunately, EIU is Panthers. Southern Illinois is Salukis.
My ranking of Illinois directional schools nicknames:
1. Salukis (SIU)
2. Leathernecks (Western Ill)
3. Panthers (EIU)
4. Huskies (Northern Ill)
I think Prohm will roll with these 9 the rest of the season.
1. NWB
2. Wigginton
3. Shayok
4. THT
5. Jacobson
6. Haliburton
7. Young
8. Lewis/Talley
9. Talley/Lewis
Conditt and Lard could maybe get some minutes if Jacobson and Young are in foul trouble.

I'm not sure if it's just the optimist in me, but I think Lard is gonna return to form at some point and be the main reason we win a few games.
The talent is there. This team is a whole lot more dangerous with an engaged Lard. I'm pulling for him.

Up until 2010 the WIU women's teams were known as the Westerwinds because, you know, women can't be marines.
