RiseAndGrind Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I just keep coming back to this board today. Just because it is awesome. Somehow, overnight, it has become cool for the local kids to stay home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestCoastBilliken Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I dont know if there is any truth to this or if this guy is being sarcastic, but I found the following on the A10 board: Originally Posted by AlienAiden I was told that Gordon will reclass which will give them French, Goodwin and Gordan for 2017. Originally Posted by BBall_Lifer Source? My source is a AAU/Recruiting service guy. He made one of Gordon's mixtapes. He said.....he is a reclass kid. I think since he committed that they want him to come early. Being a 5-star recruit he would not commit so early unless he planned to come for 2017. That is exactly how it was put to me.

TheChosenOne Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Interesting, I think this is the first mention of this being a possibility. Based on some of the comments made by Frank and others on this board about him working thru some maturation issues, this would be a little surprising to me. Although, while we have heard he has some maturing to do (and apparently has made big strides), I have not seen anything about him being an academic risk, so maybe it could happen. Someone should tweet that question to Sam Snelling, he has connections with those at Webster who may know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoosierPal Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Let's call this one like it is. Corey Tate needs a raise. Both Goodwin and Gordon singled out Tate, being a family friend, as a primary reason they selected SLU. The 'suitcase' needs to go into Corey's car.

almaman Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 We could have Metro player of the year for the next 2 years filling seats on Compton in 2 years. BTW that's it for scholarships correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bauman Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 BTW, I think EW better find a really good STL MD if he plans on staying at SLU. He is going to get broken in half with the bangers he will be up against everyday in practice. He's had two years after HS to develop a better body and from the video I see he hasn't done it. Can you imagine him competing for rebounds in practice against Bess, Foreman, French and Gordon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownwolves Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Welcome to the Reilly Center - can't wait for his first Amish Taxi ride ALLLLL the way down from Buffalo Airport. That's if the plane can land in the blinding snow storm with 4 feet of snow already on the ground and a wind chill of minus 5 below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think part of our recruiting pitch was that CG could take a sick day any time we were going to visit our friends in the brown robes! You better enjoy beating the Bills this season 'cause it ain't gonna happen after that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard of people reclassifying down a year but its pretty hard to graduate from highschool and qualify for college with the right number of NCAA approved courses in only 3 years. Doesn't seem likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMM28 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I am very excited about this. I'll be much more excited when he signs a NLI in 54 weeks. And even more excited when he steps on the practice floor in 100 weeks or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After last year and all those videos of seeing Tatum say that is why he is still considering SLU, finally great to hear it said for why a recruit picked SLU. Interview helped calm my worries about him reconsidering for now. Still lots of time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
