Timme had 37 points at will...was 15-19 from field and one of the misses was a 3 pt attempt. Announcer described his inside game best as a current Kevin McHale type.

Yes, staff upgraded all the way around. If you look at it by who replaced who in the rotation.Ray Morgan post=442251 said:
Soriano replaced Roberts - Soriano is light year's ahead of Roberts offensively. Probably about equal defensively right now. Soriano's size and ability to score in the post makes him invaluable.
Smith replaced Dunn - Smith is a better shooter, decision maker, and defender. Dunn is probably better at attacking the rim. Smith just fits better alongside Posh than Dunn did, although Dunn had his moments
Wheeler replaced Moore- I think Wheeler gives everything Moore gave offensively with less drama, better shot selection, and way better defense. Wheeler is legit guarding 1-5 out there full court.
Coburn replaced Cole - Coburn better in every single aspect of the game, was a huge late addition pick-up. You could argue he's the 3rd best player on the team right now.
Mathis replaced Williams - Probably a balanced trade here. Mathis slightly better defensively and Williams much better shooter. Both are equal in their athletic ability. Will Mathis defense end up being a better fit than Williams ability to stretch the floor, this is probably something we won't know until later in the season.

As a fan and follower of Loyola Chicago as well, most fans are pleasantly surprised and happy. As for the future of each conference, I think the Missouri Valley should try to keep a Chicago presence, and UIC could/should fit nicely.redken post=442510 said:
As for the A10, I think it makes some sense for it to lose a team to even out at 14, and for the Big East to take that team for an even 12. I have always thought Dayton and perhaps St. Louis would fit nicely in the BE. Or better yet take both, and lose UConn.
Interesting news on Loyola of Chicago joining A10. Coincidentally (or not) they are playing future A10 rival Davidson at Davidson a few days before Christmas. First time I've seen them on Davidson's schedule in the 10 plus years we've been here. Haven't purchased tickets yet but I'm planning on going.
A10 has 15 schools - 3 are rams and now they have the ramblers.
