  1. He's definitely been on campus but I don't know if he ever actually took his OV here or not.
  2. Another visitor last night to go with BBB and Fred Smith: J'Dyn Lloyd - SG, 6-6, 195 - Belleville, IL (Belleville West) - AAU: SW IL Jets - Twitter: @EasymoneyJ24 Offers: Tulsa, SIUC, Missouri State, Western Michigan, SIUE, Kennesaw State. Interest: Saint Louis, Marquette, Iowa, Northern Iowa, Indiana State, Murray State, UIC, Northern Illinois, Sam Houston State, SEMO, East Tennessee State, South Dakota State, South Dakota, Kansas City, Cal State-Fullerton, Lipscomb, Long Island, Radford. Latest News: Lloyd attended the SLU-SEMO game. (11/4/25) Scouting Report: Lloyd is a long, athletic, smart two-way shooting guard who scores on three levels. He's tough to stop when he's going downhill and finishes above the rim. He can shoot the 3. He has excellent vision and playmaking ability. He's a matchup problem at both ends. His length and shot blocking ability stand out defensively.
  3. Fred Smith, Jr. was at the game last night. SLU apparently offered months ago and I missed it. Fred Smith, Jr. - F, 6-7, 220 - Memphis, TN (Briarcrest Christian) - AAU: P7 Elite (Under Armour Association) - Twitter: @FredSmithJR Offers: Saint Louis, VCU, Villanova, Missouri, Ole Miss, Virginia, Virginia Tech, Georgia Tech, Oklahoma State, West Virginia, San Diego State, Memphis, San Diego, Toledo, Tennessee State, UMBC, Oral Roberts, Radford. Interest: Creighton, Stanford, UAB, San Francisco, Cornell, Columbia, Northern Kentucky, Furman, Wofford, William & Mary, Siena, Southern Miss, Arkansas State, Kennesaw State, Jacksonville. Latest News: Smith attended the SLU-SEMO game. (11/4/25) Scouting Report: Smith is a big, versatile two-way player who can slot into any position. He has most frequently played on the wing and the interior and excels at exploiting mismatches. He has a reliable jumper, can put it on the floor and drive, and post up depending on the defensive matchup. He's a great passer. He hits the glass and defends. Rankings - Rivals: 97, 247Sports: 80, 247Sports Composite: 82, Prep Hoops: 50, ESPN: 84.
  4. No one wants to play MNSTD! I just looked it up and the first name was Southeast Missouri State Normal School, then the name under which they played SLU, then Southeast Missouri State Teachers College, then Southeast Missouri State College, and finally Southeast Missouri State University. If there were ever a trivia question about the first opponent SLU ever played, I wonder if SEMO would be an acceptable answer or if you'd need the 1915 name.
  5. I have ESPN+ pulled up right now and am seeing 8:00 Eastern for the men and 7:30 Eastern for the women, both of which match the schedule. Maybe you happened to catch it before it updated or something.
  6. Crazy that the men and women have now crossed in the past few days. The men were at 17 a week ago. The women are now at 28.
  7. Goodwin's final line: 20 minutes, 11 points (3-5, 3-5, 2-2), 3 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 turnovers, 2 fouls, -11. The Suns handed the Spurs their first defeat of the season, 130-118.
  8. Yes, it definitely is. Although we did heavily recruit Texas and Oklahoma when Phil Forte was here on Travis Ford's staff. Forte left before that started to pay off, though.
  9. New interest: Parker McDaniel - SG, 6-3, 170 - Bixby, OK (South Central Prep) - AAU: Southern Assault (Adidas 3SSB) - Twitter: @ParkerMcDaniel0 Offers: Mississippi State, California, Louisiana Tech, Sam Houston State, Oral Roberts, Hawaii. Interest: Saint Louis, Ohio State, Oklahoma State, Arizona State, Evansville, Old Dominion, Louisiana-Monroe. Latest News: McDaniel received a visit from Brett Putz. (10/31/25) Scouting Report: McDaniel is an outstanding shooter from anywhere on the floor. He's a smart player off the ball who cuts constantly and attacks off screens. In addition to being an efficient shooter, he can put the ball on the floor and finish at the rim or pull up in the mid-range. He's extremely competitive and has a great all-around feel for the game. He transferred from Lincoln Christian School to South Central Prep in Tulsa heading into his sophomore year. Rankings - Rivals: 122.
  10. This is pretty much where I'm at. They've got some depth at G/W and size inside but none of the centers have really been productive before. Brendan Terry is going to be the trickiest matchup. 6-7, 220 lbs. and he just wants to score at the rim. I'm not sure who the natural matchup is there - I'd probably put Otieno on him and let Avila guard the 7-footers who are mostly stiffs. There's always the local-kid-with-chip-on-shoulder factor with these regional opponents with some STL kids, as you say, so you have to respect Ward and Stacker. We offered Farmer early on in his HS career and I'm intrigued by him. 2nd in the OVC preseason poll, some local interest, a decent amount of returners, and some transfers that SEMO seems to like but that are harder to read because they didn't play much at previous schools (Blocker) or are coming from lower divisions (Almodovar). I'm excited for this as an opening night test.
  11. It appears Nelson and Nugent are the top 2 in terms of offense this year. Brown was 4-8 from 3 and scored 16. If she can emerge as another shooting threat, that's huge. Given this team's 3-point shooting last season, I think you'd take 6-17 any day. I understand that it's an exhibition and this might not be predictive of regular season minutes, but if Bel Tillett is getting 6 more minutes than Bergstrom in meaningful games, we have a problem. I think this will be a better defensive team overall, but it seems like a lot of the same concerns - namely 3-point defense and turnovers - are still there.
  12. FWIW, Brock is listed at 6-8 in most places, which is the same height Anthony was listed at in his playing days.
  13. I did not know this game was happening until I happened to look at the official site today.
  14. PG from Southmoore HS in Oklahoma and MOKAN Elite. SLU was the first to offer, followed by Oklahoma State (where his dad played QB) and Weber State. Excellent shooter. I can't figure out why more haven't offered.
  15. Averaged 12.4 PPG at Iona last season.
