  1. I was listening to 1380 on my way home last night and BM said that he had gotten a phone call from Majerus wanting to know if Bernie was going to Ram's camp. He was spending a couple of weeks in Milwaukee and wanted to hook up with Bernie if he was in the area. I think the next couple of weeks is down time for a lot of coaches. I think it good that RM and BM are tight. Can't hurt to have Bernie in our corner.
  2. I saw in the Metro section of the Post that Larry is having a camp at the rec center Aug. 4-8. Quentin Richardson and Darius Miles will participate. What was interesting to me is that Justin Tatum is the contact person. Does anybody know what Tatum does for a living? Does he work for Larry? I'm also glad they hold it at SLU.
  3. I nominate Skip's Post as the "Post of the Year". I needed a good laugh today and I got it.
  4. I ran into Harry at the opening of the arena. He still looks like he weighs about 170. I think you can make the argument that he was the best billiken player in the last 40 years.
  5. For whatever reason there doesn't appear to be a lot of early orals. This class seems to be waiting to verbal. I would be nervous if other programs were getting players. July is a big recruiting month. I'm looking for things to open up in August.
  6. I totally disagree with your Duncan analysis. He is still the top 4 in the game. He demands the double team every time he catches the ball in the post. The Spurs are done because Finley and Robert Hory are well past their prime.
  7. Iggy I'm sure your talking about Michigan.
  8. The seats that were taken were all tagged. As soon as you picked your seats were marked. They take your info ,put it in a computer,give you a copy and your gone. I'll say it again, it was well done.
  9. Roy you will be fine. You will be closer to the floor then you were at Scott. The sections near the band were pretty open. Lots of blue seats were open for the big spenders. I thought it was very well run. They even had a free bar while you waited to go in.
  10. The 4th might want to stop it because he'll lose his job of being CEO of a major company ,but the rest of the family might agree with you.
  11. I guess OJ is also innocent.
  12. If you run a red light and don't get caught does that mean the light was green?
  13. The Busch's can't stop it. Insiders at BUD have less than 25% of the outstanding shares.
  14. He was charged with rape. Just because the prosecution didn't have the evidence to prove it doesn't mean he didn't rape her.
  15. Spring recruiting doesn't really end. While a kid can't sign a binding letter of intent there is nothing to keep a kid from enrolling in school and showing up in August. I can't remember who but we recently had a player who verballed after the official signing period and just showed up. They can still apply for admittance.
  16. I think the reason everybody dropped is the Billiken Club increased their universe. I don't know the details but I think sponsors like Lou Fusz got swapped out Billiken Club points for their contributions in kind. I f he was giving 2 cars to the athletic dept for their use he got points etc. In the long run it doesn't make any difference if sponsors are included in the Billiken Club or they hold out prime seats to begin with.
  17. Also the tour of the H&B baseball factory is very good.
  18. That would be hard to do with only 4 players. Summer tours can only use existing players not players coming in.
  19. As someone stated above Claiborne has had no love for SLU since he was dropped from the SLU broadcast many years ago. As a little background Claibs.was just a guy who hung around West Pine in the eary Grawer years. He became something of a go- for around the program. Somehow got the gig as the play by play radio man. Became friends with Bonner and delivered Bonner and himself to agent Jim Steiner. Somehow became agent for an all pro Dallas lineman[name excapes me]. Parlays all of this into a radio job with the newly founded sports radio industry. Somehow gets a reputation as a sports guru. To me he fits the mode of if you act like you know what your doing people people beleive you do. Most of the time I think he's full of crap.In any event he has no appreciation from where he got his start.
  20. I'm pretty sure that AT knew from day one that his job was for one year.
  21. I didn't think the sound was very good but I thought it was better that Scott. I could never understand anything the on floor promotion people were yelling at Scott.
