Schweiger looked great. I love that he went to the rack with that confidence. He's got a great handle. Very fun to watch him get downhill. We need some shooting to keep the lane open for him, Quinn, and Kennedy. If he can hit the 3 reliably himself he's going to be hard to guard.
I thought Welch and Golden both did a good job when switched onto a guard. Maybe against better shooting teams they won't be asked to do that but UIC's #4 was fast (too fast for our guards sometimes!) and I watched both of them stay in front of him and force contested 3s. They're going to have their hands full when conference hits and they're guarding 7 footers but they do a good job of letting us switch everything without complex hedging routines.
Ugly game but it was fun to win. UIC clearly gave us their best shot but couldn't hang for the last 5 minutes or so. Not a good one for Quinn but hopefully he learns from it. We will win plenty of games this year but we're going to drop some against bad teams that we can't put away.
The T against Bryce was the worst technical I've ever seen in person. He gets mugged by their 54, 54 flexes on him after fouling him, and then when Bryce turns around to say something he gets T'd up. Awful. Then 54 plays boyscout to the refs.
UIC's arena sounded like Gentile when a call didn't go our way.
