* Hutton has been in a shooting funk all year. The kid has never shot well.

* Vaughns is still clueless on the floor but no one can argue how athletic he is. He won't see any meaningful minutes this year.

Re: Iup basketball

Jalen Vaughns surfaced last night. He got 13 minutes (3 points & 5 boards). Not sure if it was due to the opponent or if he's finally (officially) healthy. Regardless, he's big and fast and teams can't ignore him when he's on the floor.

Hitting 20 of 38 treys is impressive. From deep: Glover (7-12), Cobo (4-4), Dante (4-5), Hutton (1-8), Blake (4-8), Benton (0-1).

One concerning item: Ayron Hutton is really in a shooting funk. He was 1-for-9 from the field last night and has had several bad games in a row offensively.

That was obviously a terrible mismatch last night and nothing to really celebrate but it was good timing ... it should get the bad vibes out a bit.

Cal won't be a freebie on Saturday. The Vulcans have played IUP tough the past two meetings and have also been playing well as of late. Cal gave UPJ all it could handle this past Saturday and beat Mercyhurst last night. Cal likes to run. IUP can't run right now. Interesting underlying item: The last two Cal games, IUP has had giant second half leads ... only to nearly blow both of them.

Odd stat: IUP shot better from deep last night (52%) than it did from the free throw line (50%).

Tom down 15-11 after 1st Quarter at Clarion.

FYI .. Clarion shocked Tom up there last year.

It's easy to get Cook's Forest on your mind up that way and let the game slip away. For me it would be memories of canoeing down the Clarion River with a pretty girl many years ago.

Re: Iup basketball

Good news. The women went from trailing at half to winning by 25 points.

Bad news ... the streams went out for whole PSAC around the 3rd quarter.

Re: Iup basketball

I was referring to Bravado's comments the other night about (lack of) depth and needing to recruit more.

Gotcha, he's said that a few times this season. We'll soon see I guess...

That could be the root of the problem inside the KCAC.

Not sure what you meant by this comment.

You think people are looking ahead to next year, or that they have not been thinking enough about recruiting?

Re: Iup basketball

Recruiting... I'm not sure I want to talk this yet with the season still in progress.

I will say this, Foster will stay! Foster has ties with Malik and his twitter posts makes me think that he likes IUP. Foster can score and proved that at Meadville!!! Vaughns might depend on Joe more than him. From the looks of it, Vaughns is deep in the dog house.
