Eastern Illinois

[jacobkdoyle]

They are 1-2
Lost 64-53 at Missouri State
Won 81-51 against D3 Eureka
Lost 63-61 against UC Davis
I don't know anything else about them...have we played them before? They seem familiar.

UC has never played Eastern Illinois.

 

[bearcat jeff]

I think this is the game the Bearcats start gaining some confidence and continuity.

So, what was the plan? Mio's before the game? If I kick this onset-cold I think I will try to make it out.

Let's hope for better lineups and more Moorman

A buddy and I are going to Clifton early to watch the Bengals game, then walking over to Fifth Third for the game at 5. Works out perfectly. Was thinking either Keystone or Brass Tap for the Bengals game. I've never been to either. Which do you guys recommend to watch a game?

Either or would be a good place to watch the game and drink. IMO Keystone has better food. Also check out Mio's on short vine. That is my place I go to pregame for all UC bball games.

Eastern Illinois 49

I'm hoping for Quadri and Clark to combine for 15 points (maybe one of them in double figures). I obviously don't expect 24 from Cobb, but I'd like to see him embrace the 6th man role and keep firing away without hesitation. I hope Mick finds some real minutes for KJ and/or Morman (especially if Guyn isn't giving us anything). Other than that,...solid defense, solid defensive rebounding, and solid free throw shooting and we should be 3-0 and ready for NC Central (they play Creighton tomorrow on FS1).

 

[jacobkdoyle]

Quadri Moore could really go a long way in helping himself get some big minutes if he would rebound a little better. He has had 17 minutes 2 rebounds and 16 minutes 1 rebound. I'm sure the first 2 games things were happening at a million miles an hour, but he just stood and watched the ball in the air way too much. I know he is a smarter player than that. If he can focus on just getting a body on someone, I'm sure that would make Mick feel more comfortable playing him at the 5 when Ellis has foul trouble.

 

[bearcat jeff]

Yes he could but I think UC needs Deberry to come along too. His size and ability to finish would be big for this team.

I completely agree. We need to get our new bigs on the floor with some valuable minutes. We will need them once we play some quality div. 1 teams. Right now I haven't seem either DeBerry or Strickland post of, make a post move to the basket. Something so simple seems so distant within the UC offense.

 

[Bearcat_NTS]

Hard for either of those guys to get minutes when the opponent is playing 4 guards.

They should find a way. Make the other team play post defense. It can't be that hard.

 

[BCM]

Still feel like a bag of flaming dog crap on a porch. Guess I miss this one too.
