Iowa Seton Hall in a good one. Neither team can make a FT but great game otherwise. Tyler Cook is a fucking beast for the Hawks.

Well looks like the bad start to the second half is going to do Iowa in. Overall though I'm pretty impressed with this young team. Gotta shore up the perimeter D a bit but this team has a lot of firepower on O and wayyy more athleticism than Iowa usually has. Team is definitely going to get better as the year goes on as the guys get more experience

Really looking forward to St. John's vs. Minnesota tonight. Minnesota has looked much better this year, albeit against shit competition, but they did lose last year to South Dakota, South Dakota State and Milwaukee. So it's good to see some improvement. I just think the talent level this year is substantially better than it was last year. Along with options off the bench. Tonight's game will tell us something as St. John's has definitely improved with the additions of some freshman, and their younger guys improving. I think Minnesota is still probably a year away from making the NCAAT, but maybe they can get a run in the NIT this year.

Don't want to get to excited about the Gophers, because they've let me down more then once in my lifetime, but they are looking even better than I thought they would. Amir Coffey looks awesome.

SJU is pretty bad but this was a good test.

They have insane length so it makes you have to really generate some offense. For a while there in the second half the gophs started blind driving into the trees but they settled down and are in control again.

Coffey is a stud and the defense(lynch) is great.

If they start to run through coffey more and keep playing tight D they could win a good amount of games

I think SJU is much better than last year, still probably not an NIT team, but this is a type of game last years team wouldn't have won.

Coffee is a stud, he's already the best player on the team. He's a tough match up because of his length and athleticism. I think the game against Arkansas will be a much better gauge for how good this team could potentially be. Arkansas should be a fringe tournament team.
