Not bad being down 4 starters.

BBV with 5 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal. He's gonna come in handy later in the season.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Good to see all of the players respond when given PT. My only question is how concerned should we be about the injuries?

 

[mydosburns]

Coleman played well when he was under control. He started trying to show off and it was not a good look. Looked like underwood tore into him when he came out the last time

[PNWIllini]

10 boards off the bench for BBV. This roster could be 10 deep.

When was the last time Grandison missed a FT? Hasn't he made like 30 in a row or something?

 

[Dwknowles]

Only real take away is that I loved the orange half zip the staff had on. Where can I get one?

 

[New Creation]

 

[Illiniguy13]

We have some horses. Cockburn, Payne, BBV and Hawkins is just gonna be too much to handle for a lot of teams.

He seems to have a tendency to make a good play and then get overly confident and do something dumb right after. Consistency is going to be such a huge key because he can be truly special.

DO YOU EVEN BBV BRO???

 

[ElGran]

J Grand is incredibly underappreciated here.

It will now be his next free throw /s

Kofi/Payne/CoHawk/BBV/Grandi/DMW/Hutch/Plummer/Trent/Andre. That’s 10 without the Freshmen - and Goode played 16 minutes tonight. I like it.

 

[Jon]

Big takeaways Jake is good good. Coleman too. BBV still big and strong and now serviceable. The team had 16 assists on 24 FG with no point guard. Gonna be a fun season!

 

[skyIdub]

This game full of our bench just ooozing the culture BU has established. If a floor could bruise, ours would be black and blue.

 

[Epsilon]

J Grand is incredibly underappreciated here.

Not really. I think most ppl on this board appreciate all the tangibles and intangibles he brings.

 

[BlueLeader]

Only thing concerning me was watching Plummer. Grandi as prescribed carrying the active guys today along with Hawkins but BBV wow hello sir.

Other than we were a little careless with the ball tonite there were 3 things that really stood out to and they were; 1] our depth of talent is way better than we have had in a while. 2] CH is vastly improved from last year. 3] Omar Payne can flat out jump.

If it’s possible to call a 24 pt win an “ugly win,” that’s this game. A win is a win especially down 4 key players.

 

[Homecoming 2019]

Finally started to find our groove later in the game with driv and kicks to wide open shooters. But agreed, it was rough watching damonte run the point out there.
