Besides the obvious great news this is for the team, this will drive interest in the Billikens across the country.

Yay when is the last time we followed crystal ball predictions?

Top o’the mornin to ya- live from Rose Hill for game 2 of this 3 game set between the Rams and the Bills. Talked to DH before the game - what a great guy. Lots of blue here. Let’s go!

Yeah but I'm never a fan of anyone but us sh*t talking our program lol.

This should also help in recruiting right away. A chance to play with Robbie? Gold.

So will there be a Goggles Give-a-Way night?

Rob Dauster proceeds to crap on SLU. Field of 68 is

Tournament or bust should be the expectation every single year. Anything less and we are settling.

I like Hochman but Toasted Avioli is the stupidest nickname in a long list of stupid nicknames.

Flying the flag in case Avila and scope end up driving down my street

Another Porter brother going to Mizzou? I BET that makes JonTay happy, although he probably thinks it’s a GAMBLE playing so close to home.

I blame the guy who stopped recruiting and couldn’t coach

Lol the hate will fuel our comeback. What A$$holes.

On Ashley Judd’s 56th birthday, Majerus in heaven gives us this gift… amazing. Can’t script that!

Hawkeyes vs Utah in that game

The date mentioned in the announcement was Nov 4

Sanford Pentagon in Sioux Falls has hosted some neutral site games.

Jeff Goodman dropping scheduling news!? Sioux Falls on 11/4??

I just Creamed my jeans.

YES!!!

What about Isaiah Swope?

May it also become known as Billiken celebration day!

Trilly Donovan only predicted Robbie and Isaiah. I listen to Trilly rather than Frank C.

Oh, I get it which is why I never bought the all 5 are coming talk. The power brokers on here probably should not have been making it seem like a slam dunk. Ultimately we got the prize and a tremendous coach, so I fully expect him to still build a high level roster without those 3.

Hell’s Angels have took control of the palm readers, too.

I believe most people chew them now.

Welcome, Amari. Be great.

Road game and we’ve got more folks repping Billiken blue than the home team colors. Alumni tailgate down the third base line.

Avilliken was made to be

The Gateway Starch works for me.

Hugely overlooked prospect. Big guard with real PG skills. Can fill it up, is a big time scorer. Like Kwamain give this kid the keys to the car on day 1.

Goodwin's 3rd season as a pro is over. In 40 games with Phoenix Goodwin averaged 5 ppg, 3 boards, 2 assists, shot .389 from the field and 28% from 3 while playing 14 minutes a game. His best games for the Suns came in late November and early December. He had a 14/7/5 against the Knicks and a 16/5/6 game against GS. Goodwin got regular minutes well into December, then once the Holidays hit he started seeing more and more DNPs until he was traded away to the Nets. After his release by the Nets he was signed to a 10 day by the Grizlies which they then turned into a 2 way contract for the remainder of the season. In 17 games with the Grizzlies Goodwin had 12 starts and averaged 29 mpg, with 10 ppg, 8 rebounds, and 4.5 assists. His %s took a hit shooting only .350 from the field and 63% from the line. He also had 1.5 steals a game. His best games for Memphis was a 13/12/7 performance in a win over Milwaukee, a 10/19/5 game in a loss to the Spurs, and a 23/17/4 game against the Lakers. Goodwin's contract is over. He is now a restricted Free Agent. Memphis can make him a qualifying offer and then has the right to match any other offer from a team or they can renounce his rights. Currently Memphis owes over 150 million in player salaries next year, while also having one of the top picks in the draft. They have a logjam of players at the wing and guard position. It appears unlikely that Memphis will be resigning Goodwin at this point. Most likely his rights will be renounced and he will enter free agency.

Jimerson wouldn’t have stayed if both Avila and Swope had gone elsewhere.

Wait how come we are only getting 2 ISU players? I feel like someone said it was a lock for 4-5? Maybe I'm mistaken.

FIFY.

Nice. I was too young for that. Screaming Trees was never able to translate their live shows to recordings. If they had they would have been the most popular band of the era. Better live sound than any Seattle band. RIP Mark Lanegan.

Screaming trees are real. I first saw Screaming Trees live opening for Alice In Chains at Mississippi Nights back when I was in high school. Great show.

They're likely taking the boys to the Eastside tonight.

I really want Turnbull. Good 3 point shooter in college (small sample size) and high school (39%). And the ability to play a bit bigger from time to time.

More than any other person (coach or otherwise), Grawer saved our program. He also had a great basketball camp for kids.

When I get my annual gifting statement from the university they list the individual donations and only discount the golf tournament. $500 fee gets you a $350 deduction. They do not discount my Billiken Club donation.

I stated elsewhere that hiring Corey Tate was the best decision Coach Ford made during his tenure. Tate has good relationships with the top local high school players and top juco players in the region. I'm pleased that Coach Schertz recognized his value and retained him.
