Not many students here just before game time. Reasonable crowd otherwise. Lots of blue around me.
What a start. Sharp on defense sharp on offense. Passing shooting really aggressive on D.
20- 0 run. Now that's a fast start. Really stoked about our shooting.

Man oh man, want to balance getting some time for the younger guys with keeping the foot on the gas here. A real opportunity to juice the metrics.
What a start. DePaul looks bad but we’re also lethal so far, on both ends.

Windham with some early action. Mullins with a confident three. Everyone looks great except maybe Luke. He’ll find it.
Have to tighten it up. Turnovers and watch that 3pt. line for DePaul.
Up by 10 at the half. Let's start the 2nd half strong and be stronger with the ball.

This is my one game of the year in person, and it's my guests' first time to an NU game. They are amazed at how intimate the arena is. It's such a fun, fantastic sports venue. I don't think there's a bad seat in the house. Talked to some DePaul fans before the game and they love the arena too.
Coach was having a bit of a discussion with the refs during the timeout. Wonder what he was saying. Seemed emphatic.
