4 game observations and surprises
Major Majerus replied to slu72's topic in Billikens.com Main Board
Hargrove is allowed to get his feet set on 3’s - if you play up on him, he’s a threat to drive by you in a instant - GB is already on the opposition’s radar as our top 3 pt threat - fun to see how this plays out over the season -
The season’s a journey & lots of teaching moments tonight - these guys won’t be deers in the headlights all season. So we get whooped tonight - how we respond is the key.

Game’s on espn+ u get a year for $60 or monthly for 6 or 7 - watch on computer or smart TVs - who wouldn’t watch this game for $7?

SLU Men's Soccer Thread

Quincy - across the Mississippi from Hannibal -
Cory came to SLU as a 17 year old - I suspect he was way below the average age of a D-1 freshman - that he is playing for $ after averaging 3 points during his SLU career says it all.

Years ago when I had 2 tickets so I could take a friend to spread Billiken mania. I put one up on this board & he claimed it. We enjoyed the game & each other. He invited me to a pickup game at a grade school gym in U City where he lived - I played a few times but he didn’t renew the gym the following year. By that time we were friends & he had 1st dibs on my extra ticket when available. He complained that there were no ticket perks for the faculty in the form of seating choices or pricing. I attended his book signing program for the Hemingway opus & bought one - good read & I have since passed it on. I always ran into him while doing half time laps around the concourse. I’ll miss him. -
John Grisham’s latest novel is about a college basketball player from Africa who gets a scholarship at a low D1 college & leads them to the NCAA finals - good read

I’ve played lot of pick up basketball with good soccer players - they have no fear of contact

How about 1914-1945? Of course the word predates that.

It’s a mixed bag - some skills are way highythan others - the cost is $2 unless u have silver sneakers which is free. It’s worth a try regardless of your skill set. If u love the game, come.

Ave age is around 70, but if you’re over 60, you Q. Free with Silver Sneakers, otherwise $2. At least 5 Billiken season ticket holders play. starting in July, Wednesday at 10 will be added. Pre COVID we had both days & we will again.

When I see a PE master’s thesis here, I just skip it. Give me facts & I’ll form my own opinions. Not to say I won’t venture one from time to time
