Let that sink in. Even more so. pretend its 2015 and someone tells you in 1 year SLU lands a 4* and 5* at the same position within 48 hours.

Cowboy Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 -I wish my meeting would have been cancelled so I could get to MAC to see Coach Ford float into the room -from ESPN, and the story is a headline, "There were a lot of reasons why I chose Saint Louis, but more than anything I just felt it was the best fit for me," Gordon told ESPN. "Staying home will help me a lot." and talking about the Legend... "I talked to him the other day, and it's been a long, long time since the top guys in the city stayed home," Gordon said. "I'm hoping this starts a trend." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobillsgo Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Don't want this to get lost in the chatter about Gordon today: There's some chatter about 2018 4-star combo guard Ayo Dosunmu narrowing his list today, and apparently SLU is on it. Im still trying to find a tweet/link to verify. Forgive me if this is old news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted Bryce Drew. I was wrong. I love Ford. Probably naming my first child Travis or Ford at this rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowboy Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 -just a word of caution but we've got a year to hold the commitment, through a probably crappy season with KU most likely still tugging on him but I suspect Coach Ford and Coach Tate can get Mr Gordon through it -what a week for the Billikens!

TheA_Bomb Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Boom! Big time, I knew Coach Ford would recruit well, but this it's far exceeding my expectations. I was a melt down poster, I'm feeling better now but not all the way convinced. Not going to let that dampen my excitement. If there were/are personality issues with Gordon, SLU still has to take the chance 5*, local, we had to. Bonus for SPUMAC and KU melt downs.

Old guy Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Hey guys, whatever the coaches are doing, they are doing just fine. What we have now is that most elusive quality: Momentum. If we keep it up we might just leap to the upper reaches before we know it. Hell, we have Gordon and Moore tweeting Watson to join them, how good can it get? Who knows?
