Notre Dame Grad, Brandon Joseph, Arrested

J
DUI. And the Lions have already cut him.

That’s a bummer. DUIs are nothing to mess with and just plain idiotic in a day and age when there are so many ways to avoid driving after drinking. Glad no one got hurt and hope he learned his lesson. Although it comes at a big cost.

Here are my takeaways from Northwestern’s 20-point win over the Blue Demons.

Be it known to all men . . . . .

I had the pleasure of meeting the venerable Hungry Jack at the game this afternoon, and I'll be damned if he didn't tell me - ten minutes before tipoff - that he was expecting a twenty point win today. 'Twas almost as if he knew exactly what he was talking about. Was a pleasure meeting you today, sir. You'll have to make more such predictions in the future. ;)

Good win…and a few concerns

If you had told me before the game that DePaul would 44% from 3 on 27 shots, and outrebound us, I would have been nervous. But we shot well and turned the Blue Demons into a turnover machine, which was all we needed.

I think Leach had 4 of our 8 turnovers. He had a tough time with Enright, who is much quicker than I expected.

I don't know exactly what DePaul did after we started out 18-2, but I noticed a lot more ball pressure and some trapping, which led to a bunch of turnovers. I give the Cats credit for hanging tough and countering the 2 big DePaul runs to get the lead under 10 points.

Ty is missing too many open looks in transition. Gotta be patient.

Hunger had 5 rebounds and 2 assists in 14 minutes. He had a few patented Luke Hunger moments (that's when I called him "the Bermuda Triangle of basketball." But he had a decent game. (we still need a big transfer next year).

Yes we need a Big transfer next year. Hunger's defense is awful, and he loses his man all too often. Also he can't jump. Like you, I hope Ty gets his stroke back for the BIG season.

Awesome to beat DePaul resoundingly. This is a solid 9-3 record. Love the defensive intensity and effort. Brooks is the MAN. Some other really nice pieces tonight too.

Did anyone else wince when he got fouled hard very late, while we were up big & he was still in the game? Didn’t love having him out there at that point.

Suspect free throws could cost us some conference games. Needs to be cleaned up.

I really think this team could go dancing again…but I truly believe #3 needs to improve his shooting for that to happen. We can’t have a clangfest from him almost every night and do what we need to in the B1G season. Love his work on D but he can’t keep shooting like this imo.
