Heads22 Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 ISU looked pretty decent without two starters. 66-38 with essentially no scoring the last ten minutes. Craig Brackins was fun to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 (edited) QUOTE(fathom @ Nov 1, 2007 -> 11:38 AM) Any truth to Pruitt being out due to disciplinary issues? Team has the flu bug going around right now, and they wanted to see the kids play. Bruce is a discipline wimp, but he wouldn't even sit out a guy in stealth mode for an exhibition game as "punishment". As for the redshirt situation, Cole looked great last night but it's gotta be him. Davis is raw as hell, but his length, athleticism, and instincts at the 4 are too benificiary to not have. I wish they'd redshirt Carlwell as well, as he won't be in basketball shape until league play IMO, but I doubt that happens. Tisdale didn't look great last night, but he's too skilled to redshirt. Oh, and you could redshirt Carlwell. You'd lose a precious 2010, but you just gained one with C.J. on football scholarship officially now. Tough decision.

CJ's would already be open for 2010 so you really wouldn't be gaining one by redshirting Carlwell. I would actually lean towards not redshirting anyone and just letting things sort themselves out.

My guess is both Carlwell and Semrau (who is showing why high-level DI teams backed off on him) don't finish their career with the Illini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number one thing I would change about sports is for the CBB opener to get TV coverage(Not including ESPNU), even if it is just Memphis vs. Tenn-Martin.

fathom Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 I know it's early and the games don't matter, but Indiana is far and away the best team I've seen during these exhibition games on the Big 10 Network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
He_Gawn Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Gordon is tearing it up, and everyone was right about Jordan Crawford, the kid is a freak. You can listen to the game online here: http://www.wiux.org/new/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
He_Gawn Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Jordan Crawford finishes with 30 points. Will Gordon have some competition for Freshman of the year in the Big Ten? Probably not, but Crawford is going to be a force this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmteam Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 My not-so-in-depth analysis of the IU-Northern Alabama game: Jordan Crawford was ridiculous. 9/10 from the field, including 6/6 from downtown, and he finished with 30 points. Although, he strikes me as a very emotional and streaky player, so he easily could have gone 2/10 from the field as well, if he had missed his first few shots. But still, he looked really good. Eric Gordon was as good as advertised. Lance Stemler was horribly disappointing. He made a bunch of dumb mistakes, couldn't get a hand on some rebounds, and overall just was bad. Eli Holman started slow, but picked it up by the end. DeAndre didn't have the greatest stats, and he had some dumb fouls (he fouled out), but he had 4 steals or so, and he looked quick on them. That's all for now, maybe more later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
