Wow. This Dayton defense is so much better than lehigh’s. Three turnovers already (including two by Windham). Two second-chance baskets are nice though.

Our guys need to relax. They look a bit intimidated by the pressure and capacity arena.

Only Nick looks cool as a cucumber.

Both teams not shooting well although Dayton finally hit their last two 3-pt shots.

Nice 12-0 run for Cats, led by Jello (probably supposed to spell it Gelo, but I like this better). 27-14 with 4:00 minutes left.

Collins in midseason form as far as being outside of the coaching box. Someday he's going to get a tech at the worst possible time.

Leach needs to settle down. The 10 second violation was ugly too.

Unable to watch this game, tell me about what on earth Jello did for that explosion?

I’ll take the 32-24 halftime lead but felt Collins could’ve drawn up a better play at the end. Why not draw up a play for Martinelli? Leach ain’t Boo Buie, not even close. Mart is unstoppable, 15 points and 8 rebounds.

Not impressed by Leach tonight. Left their hot shooter open in the corner for a three, shaky ball handling, poor passing.

Windham heating up - made his last two, including a sweet drive.

(as I type, he missed a three on a fast break).

Windham was much better Monday, but I still love how fearless he is. It's going to be fun to root for him and Jello the next four years.

Trying to sync WGN and ESPN+, and it just can't be done! After every commercial break it's way off. I give up.

I don’t see Matt being as effective as previous years without the Boo pick and roll
