ISU Redbirds Men’s Basketball Practice Begins

[October 14, 2014]  NORMAL - With just over a month remaining before the Illinois State men’s basketball team opens the 2014-15 season at home versus Utah State (Nov. 16), the Redbirds held their first practice Monday morning on Doug Collins Court at Redbird Arena.

As the season approaches, ISU basketball fans can watch the team in-person for the first time at Hoopfest, this Thursday, Oct. 16 at 7 p.m., on Doug Collins Court at Redbird Arena. The event is free and open to the public.

Until then, fans are invited to watch a brand new RedbirdHD.tv video, which is the second installment in the “Red Winter. It’s Coming.” series. Fans can also view a photo gallery from the first day of practice and listen to an interview with third-year head coach Dan Muller following the opening practice.
