Henry played today like we all thought he might do with greater frequency. He was the main reason we won today. And no TO's....

Traci Carter showed why many think he can be a top level PG down the road. In control, played great D on jones and hit his shots which could be huge moving forward. One play that stood out that shows his Bball IQ.....Traci drives and fires up a layup and his mo takes him OB. Henry grabs the rebound and loses his balance. He dumps the ball of to Traci who is still OB. He jumps in bounds, establishes both feet and then touches the ball. Shows that the game is slowing down for him.

JJ and HC carried us early. Hard to believe that JJ is now shooting 35% from 3. Really opens up his drive game.

Luke did not score, but blocked shots and grabbed 6 boards. And 1 foul so played his full allotment of minutes. And how about the play with 30 seconds left when HC flails a pass against the press. Luke goes and gets it and shovels to Henry.

Wojo had HC and Sandy play deny defense on Dunham the whole game. Didn't want him beating us.

All in all great game with a great, loud crowd.

One curious thing. No Traci for the last 3 minutes. Wojo went with Duane, JJ, HC, Henry and Luke. I think he liked HC defense better.

What has killed MU this year so far? TO's and giving up offensive rebounds.

Today, MU had 15 TO's and gave up 14 ORs. Not great. Shows you what great shooting can do to make up for other defficiencies.

Butler had a layup drill going with Jones first and then Martin.

Yep, a very good win, but those layups and or drives were problematical.

Interesting comments from Henry after the game. They had a team meeting and he had a sit down with the coaches.

Complaining about the defense today is ... A stretch.

Well the D was not exactly sterling throughout either. Big thing was getting into Roosevelt Jones' legs and Haanif fronting Dunham. As Wojo said in the post-game with Homer, he thought Jones got tired. But, a very nice win and our guys competed for 40 minutes with a lot of offense from Henry and Traci.

It sounds as if the 2nd half vs. Stetson was a wake up call for HE. Hope it is for rest of team as well and it is something they can sustain. Can we get to 9-9 on the conf season? Good goal to shoot for.

Butler is 1 of the best offensive teams in the country according to pomeroy. They are tough to guard.

Martin is a stud.
