Seeking6 Posted October 27, 2018 Report Share Posted October 27, 2018 Weird one. Former Mr. Illinois Mark Smith who left Illinois after 1 year and transferred to Missouri was granted a waiver and is allowed to play right away. Does anyone know how or why? Seems like the normal reasons aren't in play here. He's not moving closer to home for medical/hardship,etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do believe he committed to Groce.....maybe he tried to get out then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbmhoosier Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 Anyone see Duke play last night? That's really the only game on our schedule that I don't think we have any chance of winning. I see Zion drawing multiple fouls on Morgan in the first 2 minutes unfortunately. That will be the game. We do match up with Barrett well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think McRoberts is guarding Barrett. We can't have Romeo picking up multiple fouls immediately. Maybe JS. Keep in mind that this game is at Cameron Indoor. It's worse than the Kohl Center.

That's the nature of the home court advantage and Duke's advantage is undoubtedly bigger than others due to reputation. I don't expect a train wreck though...they have to guard Romeo and Juwan as well. Which freshman is going to shut down Morgan without fouling?

BGleas Posted October 28, 2018 Report Share Posted October 28, 2018 Never thought I’d say this, but wish we had McSwain for that Duke game. Would be fun to see him defend Zion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we should just forfeit the game and not go and get embarrassed LOL!. You watch these freshman playing against D2 teams and think that is the way they will play every game against tougher competition. It is funny that we played Duke last year which had all of these great freshman big men and was able to compete with them. I am sorry but you have to be the most pessimistic person on this board and could never see a bright spot if it hit you in the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said this was the only game on our schedule I didn't think we could win. Only one. That's not bad. I've also said that we would win the B1G this season and make the Elite 8.

No thank you that place is a cesspool and I only go to that site for football.. We might lose to Duke but it will be a competitive game and how many freshman actually come in and just dominate physically like you think Williamson is going to do.
