Recruit

Recruit (1/7)

  1. He keeps saying SalUsich ha. We cannot have Conklin and Remekun on the court at the same time. Neither have any sort of offensive game
  2. I agree. This interview seems like Willie Sr. does not have much contact with Willie Jr., i.e. maybe he has told him he is making his OWN decision about this. It seems like the only way Willie Sr. felt he could get in contact with Willie Jr. was to do it publicly. If so this has to be embarrassing to Willie. I doubt he would do an interview with Nate and allow that to be made public and make all those statements on his facebook if he truly did not wan't to return to SLU. Time to get on board dad, this is your son's decision when it comes right down to it.
  3. yea Willie is living with his mother. I think this is exhibit A as to why he is. Willie Sr. sounds like all he cares about is getting HIS name out there and doesn't care about what is best for Willie Jr. If he did he'd realize all the NBA stock surrounding Willie will vanish if he's out til 2012 and he has to compete for minutes with Wallie Judge and those likes at K-State.
  4. been away from the board a while. I lived on campus all four years, clemens, marchetti, and the village for 2 years from 2006-2010. When I was in Clemens in Gries our RA's riled us all together and gave us a speech of what we couldn't do. They were great. Don't get caught with booz blah blah. told us when cohab was etc. they were very honest about the freshman year experience. needless to say their lack of sternness equaled a very wild floor. the maintenance woman wrote the floor was making her life hell on our bathroom mirror. may have set the record for damages. some other group members were on my floor they may agree ha. but no, they didn't really ever go into sexual assault or a no means no type speech. instead they asked if we folded or crumpled our toilet paper to wipe. I know from speaking with younger students in the following years they became much more to the "T" on the rules however. we didn't have any issues with so called sexual deviance and had no one kicked out of our floor. I'd be interested to hear what current students have to say about their experience though.
  5. Maybe a dumb question. I noticed it was through CBS Sports on that link for the video: this is a subscription service, yes?
  6. No More July Recruiting: ESPN This could hurt us, especially as we are strapped for cash as it is. We'll have to do more individual visits during the year and not get to see as many kids at the big summer aau events.
  7. If he thinks Majerus was tough or hard...Frank Martin is a beast. He better not act like diva there or Martin will lock him in the doghouse and throw away the key. also, they run a more fast paced offense than we do. he's going to have to get in MUCH better shape as he could barely play 25-30 minutes in our slow offense. also, the players he'll be up against are the same height or bigger and much more athletic and highly regarded recruits. he'll have a tough time finding minutes with the likes of wally judge and others in that front court. i wish him good luck but for his sake hopes he goes more high to mid major where he can be the man or one of them. at k state he could easily get lost.
  8. Havent posted throughout this whole ordeal because I knew what was happening along with a bunch of people on this board because i know people very close to the situation. with that said it doesnt look good for the Reed situation. However lets look at the positive within this article. Compare this class with the one with Reed and Kwa. This one is so much better talent wise with McCall, Loe, Evans and Jett. Also dont forgett about the stud Barnett. This is Majerus' best class yet at SLU. If we were excited about what that class could do...get ready for this one. From what ive heard these guys work their as*es off and want to make a name for themselves. Also, dont forget about what we have sitting here now. Cassity and Conklin are both healthy and have 2 years in the system. Cory is the age of the incoming freshman with a year under his belt. McCall is an absolute stud. Evans works his but off and is smart as hell (look at his family pedigree). Ellis and Sally were both the best that Ozzyland had to offer as well. If anyone watched the last 10 games you saw that Cody has the shot and talent to be a beast in this league when he gets conditioning behind him. Also, Sally has the athletic ability to compete with anyone. he has the shot and confidence to take it to the next level. give him a shot and i believe he'll move on it this year as well. I think we are in the same position as we were a year ago; however, with more talent and athletes. I think our dream of the tourney may wait another year but we shouldnt lose hope. we have a great team returning this year without Reed. Kwa will be back mark my words. The man doesnt want to leave SLU this way. He will come back and redeem himself (hope so atleast ha). Also, next yeat we'll have Manning and Barnett along with another recruit of Majerus' picking. Its just a pause year. lets get behind this team and hope for the best. I my self am excited and ready to go. we are going in the right direction for sure. once again we'll surprise the league because we have nothing to prove and have no expectations. also, if were in the mix come january......we may have the best in season sub of ALL TIME IN THE A10 HISTORY in Kwamain Mitchell. Once again, dont count him out. his family wants him to come back and honor his contract with SLU and Majerus. He'll take us where we want to go; if not this year, definitely next year. Ad Majorem dei gloriam
  9. SLU court of appeals includes 3-4 students and then 1-2 faculty to moderate what actually goes down. the students are undergrads. the faculty is usually one of the 2-3 heads of student affairs. i do not want to knock these people but none of them are qualified. a friend of mine once asked what qualified someone to oversee his trial back during his freshman year and they said because they are pre-law scholar. no law classes just a gpa requirement to get into SLU Law upon graduation. if they want to get you in trouble they will, or vice versa.
  10. damn. hes still got almost 2 years left before he goes to college. plenty of things can change. like if notre dame has a down year and mike brey gets fired. as big as it is getting a verbal a kid committing as a first semester junior doesnt mean that much. if this was november next year id say he's definitely going to nd. also not too worried, RM has his eyes on plenty of talent, especially across the sea
  11. just checked espn recruiting and it had manning as a 91. Thought i saw it a couple days ago and he was an 89. must be getting better already.
  12. yea all of these are stupid. slunatics is ok, but sounds more like a high school CYO team than a name for a student section for a team competing for an ncaa tournament spot. WHY does the name have to have SLU or billiken in it? if it is so hard to find a name using one of those two then axe it and think outside the box. come on now. can you imagine the announcer at the fetz saying,"and the 6th man the slunatics...or sluper troopers(wtf)" i for one will cringe or laugh. blue crew is a better name. it wasnt the name that people didnt like it was how it was used and the way different groups in charge clashed with others. it just needs to get re-worked. it iffed people that you had to have season tickets to be a "blue crew" member. in that regard it was a club and not a student section name.
  13. agree with everyone. the band is amazing. they really keep the blood pumping in the student section when there is a stoppage in play or entertain us when there is only 20 of us there. just watched green street hooligans the other day. just throwing this one out there. "Grand Street Hooligans" as our University in located on Grand.
