I'm pretty much lost for any commentary.  The past week has been a rollercoaster in Redbird Basketball.  First reports of Rob Judson being named head coach were incorrect and former Redbird Dan Mueller was hired.  A day later stand out freshman Nic Moore announces his departure.

Depending on which local news report you read or hear, Rob Judson  is destined to be Illinois State Redbirds next Basketball Coach.  People high in the ISU Athletics Office at last account have stated that no decision has been made. Rob is not an unfamiliar face amongst Illinoisans.  He was an assistant at Illinois and Head Coach at Northern Illinois (74 - 101) before becoming one of Tim Jankovich's assistants at Illinois State 5 years ago. Rob was instrumental in building the current Redbirds squad which returns all 5 starters next season and just may be the logical glue to hold the team together for a run at the Missouri Valley Title next season.
