Re: Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles

It's funny you say that. I'm not just trying to hate on USI, not because I don't want to but because I recognize the "those who live in glass houses" principle is in full effect for KWC fans this year. But, I pulled up the video feed about 1/2 way through the first half and was kind of half-way watching it while working and the first thing I thought was "wow those guys are really moving on offense, Watson must have lit some kind of fire under them for this game somehow" ... then I realized that Drury was wearing white and what I initially took as black unis were actually USI's navy blue. So yeah, there is definitely a contrast in the motion between these teams.

Drury runs their offense with a purpose. All of their cuts are decisive. But we also have too many weak links on the floor. Guys who don't bring much to the game and take up space.

Re: Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles

sigh.

I would definitely not consider the West to be a "joke" of a division since they have both DU and TSU as well as a much-improved WJ. The Central division is the weak one right now with only Maryville really representing well. Traditionally the East would be the heavyweights, but this year we are seeing a slump in several teams.

Didn't the team that just got beat by 40 itself beat USI by 20 the other day? Yikes.

Re: Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles

Just show respect even to Watson. You have been one of the posters on this board name calling and everything. All of us want USI to win but Watson is gone after the next loss, so just be patient. I hate to root against USI but it might be the best thing that could happen today. Problem about today is Drury isn't a lot better than USI and plays in a joke of a division and that's why they have so many wins. I think Drury wins but I won't be surprised if USI pulls it out since the players know this could be it for Watson.

Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles

I was told that our "Screaming Eagles" was named after the 101st Airborne Division in ft Campbell. I guess somebody had some connections down there when they were debating on a mascot. Anybody actually know the background story here?
