from a personal perspective, some things worth noting:
cleveland state............ as posted on saturday, percell coles and walt waters are done for the year (both ruled academically ineligible). combined with the injury to pape badiane early this season, this leaves csu extremely thin on the bench. uic really called the dogs off on saturday; flames jumped out to a 28 pt lead before halftime but ultimately settled for a misleading 15-pt win. uic starters didnt play any extended minutes. cleveland state only had 8 scholarship players for that game. depth could be an issue with the quick turnaround game tomorrow (monday 1/19/03). although the game is at home, vikings have struggled mightily with detroit. titans have won 7 in a row vs cleveland state, and the L3 matchups in cleveland have been detroit wins by 19,14,and 10. even when csu had tons of talent a few years ago, massiminos guys never could get over the hump vs detroit.
vikings have two very solid players in robinson (horizons 2nd leading scorer behind milwaukee's page) and westley (avg 15 pts and 9 boards). but now with coles out, they are screwed. there is nobody else on the roster capable of scoring. the road does not get any easier for csu. vikings have detroit and milwaukee on the schedule this week. unless they make a stronger commitment to defense, things will remain ugly. vikings have let up 83,70,90, 78,86,83 points in the L6 games (and if illinois-chicago really wanted to, they could have EASILY scored 90 or 95 yesterday in my opinion)
will add to this page throughout the day with some other teams.
anyone -- please feel free to add anything and everything horizon-related.
(i just now saw that toronto-vigilante DID include a horizon thread. my bad vigilante. sorry for starting a separate one)
