LoyalZIP Posted November 15, 2023 Report Share Posted November 15, 2023 A game was played. I guess if anything, there was a stretch that was a good lesson in never losing your focus. Onto the Caymans, let’s win that damn thing for once. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csims0917 Posted November 15, 2023 Report Share Posted November 15, 2023 Solid game. We got some minutes of experimentation. Excited to listen to the Cayman Islands this weekend (not watch). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkwgriswold Posted November 15, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2023 I love that Groce was on them the whole game. In the post game he said that he told the vets late in the game that he wasn't coaching them hard at that point to beat Heidelberg. It was about getting better for down the line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illini Zip Posted November 15, 2023 Report Share Posted November 15, 2023 No mention of Prather during post-game. That’s my only negative for the game. A missed opportunity for him to get some playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reslife4Life Posted November 15, 2023 Report Share Posted November 15, 2023 One more thought on these types of games. Yes they don’t help us rankings wise and there is always a risk of injury. But Enrique’s breakout game was against Malone in 2020. While I’m sure we still would have seen him as a regular in the lineup regardless of that performance, that game was a turning point for him. No I don’t think we saw a performance like that tonight from anyone. But there is always something good that can come from a game like this 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GJGood Posted November 19, 2023 Report Share Posted November 19, 2023 On 11/13/2023 at 2:06 PM, Let'sGoZips94 said: Yup, injuries happen. Soft tissue injuries are most common in preseason/early season. Can't control the reward for the risk when it's pre-season, but you can control the reward when the season starts. Heidelberg is ridiculous and embarrassing, especially where there's an even lower opponent later in the season. I don't care if other teams schedule this crap - sick of the sheep mentality. Dare to be different. Get a D1 team on the schedule. I like this schedule overall, but these two non DI teams are atrocious. I don’t mind one non-D1 to either start the season with a young team or coming off of Finals Week when maybe practice time was way down due to academics. I don’t like having two. I could see scheduling a NET 300 team or so from D1 though to either tip off the season or as a return from Finals as well 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 Just looked at the box score & see Prather didn't receive a single minute even versus Heidelberg. Is he still injured? It looks like he's been dressing. He's only a R-Fr., but zero minutes? Amani Lyles is another concern. Against Heidelberg he saw 20 minutes, shot 5-of-7 for 10 points, and had 8 rebounds, so that's a nice line... but... Heidelberg. Thus far against D1 competition all of our games have been nail biters so there's not really been a good situation where Groce could afford to let him get his feet wet in mop up duty. He tallied... 2 minutes vs. SDSU 0 minutes vs. S.Miss 0 minutes vs. FIU, and 0 minutes vs. Utah State Just something to keep an eye on. I'm not throwing the towel in on Amani yet. But with minutes like Prather and Amani have been getting, or, more specifically not getting... Idk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LZIp Posted November 21, 2023 Report Share Posted November 21, 2023 (edited) @Blue & Gold Prather was injured for Heidelberg game. Twisted his ankle in practice. Groce mentioned it on the radio. Edited November 21, 2023 by LZIp 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
