And just for inquiring minds, Justin Turner is still out of the lineup.

Dylan Frye playing hard today. He's really been a leader with Turner out. He just took a charge.

Since that bad loss at Cleveland State by 18 last season, BG men's basketball is 25-9. That was really the turning point in Huger's tenure here.
With 4 minutes left in the first half, it's BG 30, CSU 17.

Plowden with the half-hook early, the fast break slam and now this alley oop.
Dude is looking good out there.
And Frye is playing defense. It's obvious we have a scheme. When his man on the perimeter makes ANY move, Frye jumps to shut down the right. And Plowden teleports over to shut down everything else.

Loving the energy that both Fields and Ziggler bring to the court. Little guys who play more like forwards sometimes.

Well, the announcers are at least MENTIONING Turner's injury.
Time line To Be Determined.
IN other words, they don't know anything either.

Laster made a great defensive read to pick off a pass and go the other way. He's limping after being fouled, but he's fine to shoot his free throw so I assume it's not going to be an issue long-term.

FINAL: Falcons win, 72-58.
Got a little loose with the ball and effort to close, but a great win nonetheless. We're 8-2, best start through 10 games in a while, I'd imagine.
