Valpo Hosts Bradley Game Thread Sat Feb 22 7PM ESPN+

How come JFL doesn't get any calls?  Actually if anything he gets calls going against that shouldn't.

1/3 and 0/2 from the line by JFL and Gordon over the last 5 minutes did not help, but I feel good only down 6.

JFL was battered throughout the first half, knocked to the floor at least four times, and he only got one call with 1.9 left in the period.

How come 2 of our starters shouldn't be starters? I'll leave it up to others who those 2 would be.

[GoldenCrusader87]

Does it take a degree from Stanford to realize how odd it is to try and put Zion in for the first time with 1.9 seconds?

[FieldGoodie05]

Just keep JFL, Krikke and Clay for next year, and I'll be happy.

Agreed!

Crusaders giving the fans something to cheer about.  Looks like a good environment right now.

[valpotx]

Don't jinx it

[valpotx]

Buck Fradley!

[valpopal]

Under 8 minutes and Valpo is 15-22 (68.2%) from three, better than the  8-12 (67%) from the free throw line!

That was fun to watch
It's a great night when I can keep the rolaids in the medicine cabinet

Another great second half and great shooting from 3 point.  Back to .500.

[nkvu]

Great second half. Shoot like that every game and this could be a pretty decent team.

Yes my secret identity is Captain Obvious.

I think I yelled at my computer more tonight than other nights for the 1st 30 minutes. I was really afraid that they might squander this 3 point shooting performance when Bradley wasn't missing.  Defense woke up for long enough though.  Hey, great W against a hot team.  I'll look forward to rewatching at a later time when I can enjoy it more.  Glad to know the streaky shooting can get as hot as it does cold. 

[oklahomamick]

Is that the best win of the season?  I think that was the best team we have beaten. 

Have to say and give credit that we are much better team now than in November.

What a truly silly post.

I still believe Mileek should come off the bench.  He clearly deserves minutes but at this time it's my belief that Krikke is a more consistent option offensively/defensively.  My main reason for 6th man status of Mileek is that we are often times not effective in the half court offense to start games.  Krikke has more moves and moves off the ball better.

Our C and PG play rattle our offense to start games.  I'd like to see Krikke in the starting rotation to ease the pressure out the gate on Mileek.

[valpotx]

That was fun.  It never felt like we were going to lose, even when down 13.  It has been a long time since Valpo has shot the 3 like we did tonight.  Now, let's finish up at 10-8 in conference, and avoid Thursday!

Dude, get into the 20th century.  Either cast it to you old tv or spring for ESPN+ for $5 a month and watch it on your 60"!

Glass half empty: first half lapses lead to large leads for opposing teams.  Lottich has to go.

Glass half full: this team has heart and overcomes large deficits.  Lottich is a great halftime motivator.

[GoVU]

Fazekas is a phenomenal shooter. Are there any NCAA loopholes we can exploit to get him for another year?

On the topic of hot shooting, what did we think of Mileek's 3-pointer early in the shot clock when the game was pretty much out of reach? I am all for feeding the hot hand but...

I am not superstitious...but I am a littlestitious.  Valpo does infinitely better when they are not on my tv and are on the computer instead.  Also...sleeping baby so headphones (and "yelling" is more disgruntled noises and violently shaking the chromebook/throwing hands up in the air.)

Hoping Evansville can take down Indiana State at home tomorrow and UNI can take down SIU in Iowa tomorrow!
