Does a lot with a little in win Obiagu recorded nine points (4-4 FG, 1-2 FT) and four rebounds in 16 minutes in the 76-68 win over DePaul on Saturday.

Impact Obiagu was handed very little time in the starting rotation in the win Saturday. The center did however go perfect from the floor and added a few grabs in the paint. He has not been a big shooter yet this season and does fairly well at the boards, but will need to do more to be deemed viable.
