NEWS AND NOTES:

A few quic Under the Radar notes…

-Keep an eye on the Drake Bulldogs.  They were a team that back in October many of us (myself included) expected to see in the top 25 at some point this season.  That’s not going to happen because it simply took them too long to get rolling and they lost a lot of games they shouldn’t have, but for the last couple of weeks they’ve been playing like the caliber of team we thought they would be, and they absolutely blasted a pretty good Southern Illinois team yesterday 82-59.
