I've been pleased to see Jerome have some good games.  It should help him if he wants to take advantage of his COVID year through the portal.  I've always really liked him, but he just has never developed MVC skills.

Surprised we’re down by only 17. I think Roger is right, the talent is just not there. 

This game is an opportunity for players to step up and the only person doing so is Palm.

 

It's still far too early to make sweeping judgments about Roger Powell as the head coach, one way or the other. I remain very optimistic, but boy, he has his work cut out for him. This roster is a mile away from competitive in the Missouri Valley, and I'm not sure that's going to solve itself in one summer.

Maybe we'll keep the streak of having the opposition missing a star player... let's see if we can get to 36 minutes of valpo basketball. 

Valparaiso starter Connor Barrett is OUT against Northern Iowa due to illness. 

Valpo freshman Cooper Schwieger is also OUT.

I guess saying that Connor Barrett is a "starter" says all you need about this season.  This "three point snipper", is shooting 16% from the 3. Sad

I'll assume the reference to Barrett as a starter is just a mistype. He's started one game and I'm not even sure which game that was.

He started the previous game. So at the time I typed it, Connor Barrett was considered a starter. (Let me have some fun in a trying season! LOL)

Yeah. I forgot that he shot his way into the starting lineup with the 0 for everything vs. Indiana State. :d

I’m waiting for Powell to emulate Coach Prime in recruiting and the transfer protocol.

Agree and I'm certain that his slow development at Valpo has been even more frustrating for him than it has been for us. The best part coming from his struggle has been the extra floor minutes it has provided for our many underclassmen.
