This is one of those times where I hate having cut the cord.

No watching the game for me.

Hutson sighting was unexpected, first off the bench. But immediately producing!

And the PA guy didn’t know who he was - announced his points as Krutwig.

Are you in the arena, pupil? If so, let us know what the environment is like...

We have a good showing here! Definitely more Loyola fans and LUC chants.

Kennedy hurt again. Ankle area.

Ugh

After grabbing a great rebound, too

The way he twisted it on the replay, if there’s an “ideal” way to land on someone’s foot and twist your ankle, and avoid serious injury, that might be it. Hope for the best

The Ramblers audio feed is not coming through well for me, so I am listening to the Saluki network; they're doing a good job. They too are surprised why Welch's minutes seem to be limited and perhaps lost to Hutson. I have always thought that Welch and Kennedy are going to be key players for next year, assuming all or most of the seniors do not choose an extra year. That said, it is nice to see that Hutson can contribute so much so soon.

For anyone wondering, we led Valpo 36-20 at halftime last year.

The Hutson thing is weird. But he’s gonna be big for us next year, with or without Krutwig. If this team were to do something crazy and all come back next year, with another year of practice under our belts, we would essentially have two different starting lineups that could compete for a valley championship.

Gee, thanks.

Three fouls on Clemons and they're leaving him in.
