The UNI men will need to move on quickly from Sunday’s blowout loss at Loyola as the Panthers get ready to visit Illinois State tonight (Tuesday night). The Panthers are 10-4 in the Missouri Valley after an 85-58 loss to the Ramblers.

That’s Panther coach Ben Jacobson who says his team should have no problem moving on.

Jacobson says having several players who have been through a title chase is a plus.

With Noah Carter playing the center spot Jacobson is concerned about Illinois State’s size.

Illinois State fired head coach Dan Mueller on Sunday but he will finish the season. Mueller also played at Illinois State.
