I think our rebounging stats are something less than an exact science. The paper showed Izik with zero rebounds and I know I yelled at least once nice rebound Izik. By the way Izik has become a pretty good defender. We missed him in the second half.

While I didn't like the tone of his voice I thought he did a pretty good job. He did a decent job of talking about little things like useing the shot clock but staying agressive. Something Syracuse was very good at. What I can't stand in an announcer is someone like Billy Paker who pontificates that this is how the game must be played.

Terry Moore was the ref who made the call.

Roy your criticism of Grim was incorrect. He said he watched the 2 half live after getting home from the Ram game. He taped the game and at least rewatched the bogus 5 second call. Brad did a good job as always. One caller[half of this board] wanted to know why Varner played . Got the standard does the little things like screening response.

I'll never be happy with the NIT. If you don't make the NCAA's you have not had a good year. The Tournament should be our only yardstick.

I hate the guy because when the Tigers score a touchdown he sounds like he's he's going to have an orgasim. When they lose a basketball game he acts like his mother just died. I want my announcer to show some passion but not too much passion.

I agree he is not the only one who has hurt us ,but going 0 for 5 from the field-missing the front end of 2 straight one and ones -grabbing 1 rebound in 22 min.play sure didn't help us win.

I'm in Narks camp on thus one. Brad has chosen to play Varner because he does the little things that Brad wants done. Unfortunately little things like setting good screens have not made us a good offensive team. We are not going to become a better team if Ross continues to play. He's doing all he can. He's not going to get better. I'm sure Ross is a great kid and I wish him well,but I wish him well on the very end of the bench. At some point Brad has to give min. to potential not just how well you practice or defend off the ball. As somebody said earlier its about wins and losses not how hard or well you practice. We can not beat a Cinn. or Lou. with Ross playing 20 min.

Keep up the good work.

I thought the call was correct. Some guys just get carried away. By the way the guy who won the car was Jan's significant other.

SLU will issue tax free bonds. The university is a AAA credit. Current rates would put the rate at about 4.75%. So you need to bring your numbers down.

You post is right on. The NCAA and the media like Q and his marketability,because of that little will happen. They will lose a scholarship or 2 for a few years but little more. But this will be his strike 2.From now on he had better be a better cheater.

I don't think Alden gets off scott free. I'm betting he's gone{takes another job] in the next year.

I listened to most of the show and felt Ricky came across as fairly creditable. He did lose it when he talked about Bunge. James Brown stated that he felt and knew that many college basketball players were being paid. I actually thought Rickey did a pretty good job. One interesting thing is he said family was paying for his tuition.

Nobody would watch it,too unbelievable.

I'll say it again. If coaches are handing out money your being naive to belive they wouldn't take it.

Hey I believed you untill you got into the lawyer part.

I find it hard to believe that you feel that if one person is getting paid cash it would only be one person. If I we're on a team and one of my teammates was getting paid I'd want my share. These are college kids not a collection of ethics professors. If Ricky was getting paid your naive to think he's the only one.

There will be a Catholic National Champion. No Trojans.

Bob Carpenter is a St. Louis guy who loves his home teams. I'm happy he's going to get to do some Cardinal games. Dykes was excellent. He really gave some incite into the game and what we were trying to do. It's too bad our local Charter guys can't do the same. They olny tell you the obvious.

I wonder if Brad knows how to set up the picket fence?

Be carefull how you use the name willie''

Chris Peay from U City high also transfered from SLU to Mo Baptist. Chris had a fairly good freshman start, tore up his knee and decided to transfer. Averaged big numbers for them.

Bob Mueller comes to every game. He sits about 3 rows deep across from the Billiken bench. He usually has a couple of kids with him. If I remember he once sang the national anthem. They should bring him back for an encore.

Plaid pants-there goes my brother in law.
