- Two difficult games in a row coming up, Illinois State is a very talented and veteran team.

- Zach Price and Stephen Van Treese are not Gorgui Dieng, guards will have to step up their game.

- Van Treese does a lot of things well, the more you see him the more blemishes you see.

- Chane Behanan has been practicing very well lately.

- Illinois State does a lot of things well, very good.

- Montrezl Harrell is a raw talent, unskilled, but most freshman are like that.

- Van Treese doesn't have much offensive confidence.

- Called Teddy Bridgewater, Teddy Heisman.

- Don't think about the conference change much. "We have two years left in the Big East, so that's what I think about."

- "We expected to beat Duke, with or without Gorgui."

- Illinois State mixes up their defense, could be difficult for Price and Van Treese.

- Van Treese and Price draw charges well. Price is perhaps the best on the team at it.
