Leathernecks are 2-2 though one of the victories came against NAIA St. Ambrose.
They defeated the Southern team, that the Illini just faced tonight, 88-80 on Friday night. They'll face another recent Illini opponent when they travel to Valparaiso on Tuesday night. Gametime is 7:00 PM and the game will air on ESPN+.
The game against the Illini will be the first of back-to-back games against B1G teams. They'll travel to Madison to play Wisky the Monday after this one.

Hope the Illini give me an easy win on my birthday. It always seems like we come out tired after Turkey day, I wonder why.
I would love to see the young PGs get a lot of tic in this game too. Looked great last night. Another chance to get Gurrier going before big competition, he is currently 6% from 3 pt range. Don't worry this kid will revert to the mean.
Bummer about Moretti, at least it looked bad. He was pretty pretty well.
Would like to see Ty bounce back/break out in one of these games.

Is this a tournament/round robin w Southern, Western Illinois, and Valpo or just a scheduling coincidence?

Technically, yes, but only so the schools participating can get the exemption allowing teams to play 31 regular season games.

Clearly a highly sought invitation.
He will be fine. He could go right now. Might play Friday. Might wait until Rutgers

What about Moretti?

Why no updates on Moretti?

If I read into TSJ's body language when he returned to the floor after halftime, I'm going to bet the Moretti injury was bad. Multiple teammates had to talk to him because he was so down.

Not a doctor but I am going to assume there will be no definite conclusion until the swelling in it subsides. I will go with the high ankle sprain or ligament damage. If there was a break I don't think he would have been in a walking boot in the 2nd half. Sad part is I don't think he plays until after the first of the year

I've been trying to determine if the lack of news is good or bad. I'm leaning toward bad.

That's like saying "fracture or broken bone."
