Owens looks like he's got some potential on O to expand his game out to 15 ft.

Looking better every game.

Yep.

And every single player on the team outside of maybe Amar looks better every game these last 3.

They sure do.

Yep.

Nice job to continue fighting.  Proud of this bunch.  Props to Mullin for having this team playing well.

Thought this was a very good win. We came out pretty flat and withstood a flurry of circus shots from a player (Harrison-Docks) that we probably didn't even prepare for at all on the road and being down 7 at halftime.

We got good performances from just about everybody. I thought Ellison played terrific on-ball defense. Owens and Williams were excellent on both ends. Lovett was just great. Ponds was 'pedestrian' for him, but still a good overall game. He's so crafty on both ends and the game comes so easy for him. Very fun to watch and the upside is phenomenal for this team.

Team looks good. We lose without Williams. He's turning into a necessary role player. We play better with him on the floor.

Really nice win on the road.  Kudos to staff and players.  It seems as though Mullin is getting much better with rotations and the team is really playing well as a group.  Lovett and Ponds are no doubt, two of the most explosive guards in country, regardless of grade.  Williams has been a huge plus for us, along with Owens.  I can see with each game, the kids are improving across all facets of the game, thats on coaching which I love. 

Congrats to the team.  Big 4 game stretch coming up, but I will revel in this win until we play Creighton.

While Owens and Williams deserve a lot of the recognition Ahmed has certainly gotten better at cutting down the 1 on 1. Has made everyone better

I thought Williams was nothing more than a glorified walk on earlier this year but man has he made me look stupid. He's been really solid lately. Presence on D and on the boards and hitting hook shots, jumpers and FTs. Has been much better than Sima was this year

A road win in the BE is always a great win. Very excited with the results of the last 3 games, but I'm trying to keep things in perspective and remember some of the bad bad losses. I am a little worried about Yakwe (he didn't sniff the game in the 2nd half as Williams was outplaying him). I'm afraid he will go by the way of Sima. His body language is not great. He started to worry me during the Syracuse game when St. Jean turned around to the bench before a media timeout and told Yakwe to shut the #$%^ up.

Of the bigs, Owens played the most mins, with 20. Only 5 more mins that Yakwe.
