Darrion Baker is doing well at SIUE. 4-4 with 10 pts 30 minutes into the game against UTSA

Nate Johnson played 35 minutes for K state in their 1 point victory over Tulsa.  He only scored 5 points but had 4 assists and 9 rebounds.  Glad to see he is doing well playing at the next level.

One has to wonder how a 6-7 Harris and a 6-6 Eric Mahaffey might have helped us last year vs. Arizona in particular. But it just wasn’t meant to be.

I was curious to see how Nate Johnson is doing this year and I must say it's better than I would've expected. Obviously we'll see how things go when they get into conference play, but so far he's started all 7 games and is averaging 13.6 points, 6 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game.

I'm not surprised because he has the size, athleticism, and skill set to play at that level. He just wasn't good enough against that level of competition to carry an offense on his back. He's surrounded by more talent so can just settle into his role.
