  1. Who ever said that his mother needs to sign the loa is correct. He had to send it home.
  2. I totally agree. Met him a few times a very nice guy. Can't stand his sport spots.
  3. From reading Roy over the years I believe he is of the opinion that most teams cheat. I'm curious as to whether most people agree with that. Are we really one step from sainthood compared to everyone else.I do believe we try to play by the rules but what about everybody else? I do believe everybody in the SEC cheats. Always have always will. But what about the Kansas State's-the Boston College's-the Ohio States of the world. My own opinion is that about one half of all teams cheat with about 1/4 of them giving hard enducments.But I certainly believe you can be clean and still win at the highest level.
  4. Roy you may be a realist but that is one of the problems with our program. Too many people believe that we can't compete with the big boys. If Brad is ever going to achieve his goal of going to a final 4 we have to be able to sign the best local talent regardless of who's after them. I for one have faith in Brad and believe TL will be a Billiken
  5. When you say move on I hope your talking about this years scholarship. To give up on Tommie playing for SLU in the future would be stupid. You won him once you can win him again.
  6. Where have you been Clancy? I figured you had forgotten how to turn on your computer.
  7. I don't think it's the same Padgett. The Padgett who played for UK I thought was from Louisville and this guy is from Reno.
  8. UNCA have you been into your wine cellar?? Your frisky today.
  9. Many of us die hard fans go to every game regardless of who we play,when we play, or where we play. I'd be happy to fill out your survey but I would think my responses would skewer your results
  10. Heard a KFNS interview with Irons last night. Some of the players who are on the team include Matt Baniak{what happened to med school] Donnie Dobbs. Johnnie Parker. J P Mitchem{Ladue].Kenn Brown. Kern had not yet signed a contract but Irons felt he would eventually play.
  11. I think they changed the rules. He did not hesitate. He said there was no such thing anymore. I had read somewhere that the Dwayne Wade senerio did not exist today. I don't know of any partial qualifiers anywhere.
  12. Somebody asked Brad about partial qualifiers ,his answer was that it no longer exists period. TL either qualifies or he doesn't. For what it's worth{probably not much} I read Brad's body language to be very hopefull about Tommie. My prediction is that TL will wear the Billiken Blue next year.
  13. There is going to be an ice ring built on campus to play hockey. The money is being independently financed through tax free bonds. the university is donating the land. I asume it's to be built somewhere near Compton. The university will not be involved in it's operation.
  14. I read or heard somewhere that one of the issues was whether the arena would include a seperate practice facility. Billikan is this one of the design issues your talking about?
  15. As previously discussed on this board Depaul's support for their program is not very good. We have trouble getting our students to travel a few blocks to Savis how about a 30-45 min. drive to All State arena. He's probably underpaid. I wouldn't be shocked to see him go.
  16. I think this board is getting carried away that this story is gospel. While it wouldn't surprise me if that is what Missouri gets, it also wouldn't surprise me if they got something less severe. How is this rumor any different than the coaching change rumors that get published and never happen. I believe that if the NCAA had finished their report they would be currently notifying Missouri of their findings not waiting for May. I'll use that expression that I hate ,I'm from the show me state.
  17. My understanding is that it's a 1 shot deal.While I generally don't think we should play such games it is Duke ,and will help our RPI enormously. Let's just get to the point that we won't have to play these games.
  18. SLUDrew you beat me to the punch. I obviously agree with you.
  19. I wouldn't bet against Brad going with a 3 guard offense. If St Joe can plays 4 guards don't be suprised if Dwayne Anthony and Reggie lead the team in min. played. Obviously good guards are the most important part of winning teams.
  20. Heard on KFNS this morning that Kalen Grimes was the Gatorade Player of the year for the state of Missouri. I don't care if he's going to Missouri or not ,that is ridiculous. He didn't even make first team All Metro. I don't know how this award is choosen but they need to get real. Even the guy on KFNS couldn't believe it.
  21. The announcer was Jim Holder. He's the sports director of radio 550 and the announcer for the Rams games.
