We have improved 10 fold on the offensive side of the ball, put up 84 and 91 in the first two games (against medicore opponents, although Indianapolis beat Valpo, who played NC to 11) and last year there were games where we only put up 48-51pts.
I expect SIU to be good this year, top 2 in the Valley, make the tourney and probably make win a game, but next year, they are Elite 8 material.

This from a team that was life and death to beat Division 2 USI (Univ. of Southern Indiana) 2 weeks ago?!
