1. Vasquez led all scorers with 23, which is great.  Still, 7 points came on garbage time FTs and he only shot 4-14.  But hey, feel free to proceed with the parade as planned.
2. At halftime, Bill Raftery called Vasquez’s play ”solid,” and said he wasn’t “forcing the issue.”  Totally spot on.  In other news, it’s opposite day.
3. Landon Milbourne (8-11 for 19 pts, 7 rebs, 3 stls, 2 blks) is our best player so far.
4. Could we run more stuff for Eric Hayes?   He’s in rhythm right now, especially off the curl.
5. IU guard Jeremiah Rivers (Doc’s son and a Georgetown transfer) is a nice player.
6. In Dino Gregory’s absence, Jin Soo Choi had an opportunity.  He has not capitalized on that opportunity. 
7. Perimeter defense greatly improved after they went to the zone.
8. James Padgett had as many fouls as he had points and rebounds combined (3). 
9. As with Cincy, we missed a lot of bunnies.  That’s gotta get corrected.  It was more understandable against the imposing Bearcats.
10. Closer than the final score indicates, but still a decent road win, and a good team win.
