Sam Houston State Pre-Game Thread


IUFLA

Recommended Posts

When: Tuesday December 3rd 7:30 PM EST

Where: Simon-Skjotd Assembly Hall, Bloomington, Indiana

TV: BTN

Second year coach Chris Mudge (24-16 overall) brings his Sam Houston Bearkats (3-4) into SSAH for a meeting with our Hoosiers. Sam Houston has wins over Tarleton State (Kenpom #314), Lamar (291), Trinity (D3), while losing to Steve Alford's Nevada squad (#36), Baylor (#22), Appalachian State (#137), and UNC Wilmington (#196). They have a game tonight versus #251 Colgate.

As you can see, they shoot the 3 ball pretty well, with Lamar Wilkerson, Cameron Huefner, and Dorian Finister (Kansas State transfer) all over 40%. Those 3 start along with Kalifa Sakho (Utah State transfer), and Brennan Burns. Marcus Boykin had started the first 6 games, but went out with an elbow injury versus Appalachian State and missed their last game. 

Another tune-up as we move toward the Big 10 season. Hopefully we'll employ some of the lessons learned from the Battle 4 Atlantis, and shore up our defense...

Sidenote: My neighbors are both Sam Houston grads, and my daughter was a professor there...Sorry folks...GO HOOSIERS!

You have the most recent post regarding it... two days ago.

As @HoosierFaithful said on the other thread, the apathy is real.

I'll be watching but it is hard to get excited for a game against Sam Houston St. Maybe the first or second game of the year to check the team out but at this stage we know what we have. Hopefully this team has had some good practices and comes out ready to play and gets a big win to start the uphill climb in the NET

We're a football school. Haven't you heard?

All kidding aside, we have to move on from Woodson if we don't make it to at least the S16. I think this team will get better throughout the season. It can take time for pieces to mesh. That said - I think it is pretty clear at this point we need a fresh start with new leadership.

And I'd agree with that...we have way to much talent and depth to not get at least to the 2nd weekend

Much better than the Bahamas crew....

I thought that Bahamas crew was very good. They both seemed to know their stuff and made some insightful commentary about what was going on in the game. Most of it wasn’t talking highly of IU, but that’s what happens when you’re getting blown out.

Looking forward to a hard reset on the early part of the season. Have a stretch where we could rattle off 8-9 in a row or 8 of 9. Get the kids believing again over several games not just spurts within the game. 

Agreed. Well said.
