At least that's the way it is early in the 2nd half.

Getting internet feed from Indy Sports radio station 1430 WXNT.

Fish was down on the floor and may have turned an ankle...stay tuned on this possible bad news.

I just hooked up to the Butler feed which is a freebie...too bad SLU can't get us a free radio feed. These Butler guys were crowing about the defensive job Butler did on Reggie Bryant.

Well the 4-5 Bulldogs come into St. Louis after an ugly home loss to WI Green Bay. They don't look particularly big and are led in scoring by 6'5" Mike Monserez with just 11 pts a game. He is also their top rebounder at 6.8 boards a game. While it is early in the season, Butler's RPI is 207 while we are 209. We need to come out and establish ourselves early on at home against a Butler team that you know will be well coached. We need a win badly after a disappointing game VS the Bears last Saturday. This could be one of those tough defensive struggles where every possession is important. Let's Go Bills!!!

They are probably fighting over their paychecks.

Oh Boy, a UW VS MU cat fight...just in time for Xmas.

It's simple if you don't like the thread(s) then don't respond. Let me assure you since you have not been a frequent poster on this board, the disliking of the programs is pretty much mutual and MANY MooFans come over here to voice their opinions about SLU. The smack talking among the fans of the two schools will have nothing to do with whether, or not, the programs play each other...that will be decided by the AD's and HC's.

Could be as he was a former college and pro HC.

I'll be waiting to read some good reports. Is Bone still HC at Collinsville? It seems like it has been some time since the Kahoks have had a good basketball team...I never thought I'd live to see the day when they weren't one of the top HS teams in the area.

Watching 7'2" Nick Smith who I thought had a nice game outside of his FT...makes me hopeful that someday Byrce Husak could give our team some of the same characteristics in the post. I don't recall Smith looking that good last year so obviously his hard work paid dividends.

No, the MO taxpayers had to pay for the cheats from Gooberville's new digs. Whatever they are paying Randy Pulley...he's way overpaid after viewing last night's fiasco.

However, I wanted to hurl something at my TV when Dickey Puke said knowing Snyder and Odem like he does, they just cannot be guilty on the paying players or academic fraud claims. Just keep drinking the SPUMAC Kool Aid Dickey Puke! Me...I wonder how much they had to agree to pay Conley to get him to make the switch???

The interesting thing about the players you mentioned (all good players) was none of the were bigs. Robinson at what 6'6" would have been the tallest of that lot, and that was a big problem with Spoon's overall body of work in the recruiting vein...he never really recruited a stud big man. Of course, one could argue that none of his predecessors have shined in that area of recruiting to date either...school still being out on the likes of Ian, JJ, and Husak.

That's because the recruiting plan of the snake oil salesman was poor at best. Sure glad he's not our problem anymore.

Taj79, Agreed 110% especially on your comments about playing JJ and Clarke. I really do look for this to happen too.

Exactly, I think the folks now on Brad's butt now about not offering Ahearn forget that we had received the verbal from Morris, and IMHO it was Morris who had the scholie offered that could have been offered to Ahearn. IMO it didn't come down to Clarke VS Ahearn but instead Morris VS Ahearn.

From what has been reported on this board...it does not sound like he has enough range on his J to be playing on the wing. He's still a very young and raw but also one of the best athletes on this team. I'd hope that we will see this kid grow before our very eyes as a pretty serviceable 4.

Has been doing the Bills games. I'm sure he started sometine during the 10 seasons that Rich Grawer was HC and Rich started coaching in the 82-83 season. I've said before that my feeling on Ramsey is SLU is strictly a job, and if something better came along, then he would be gone in a heartbeat. He's done an OK job but I go back to when Harry Caray and after him Jack Buck did the games and Bob just isn't in those two hall of famers league. The sports radio at KFNS sucked when I left town in September of '96 and I understand it still sucks...can't say it is any better here in Tampa either. My memory of Ramsey and Claiborne on KFNS weren't particularly good. I seem to remember the restaurant and movie reviews that were very boring to this sports junkie. I like the idea of writing to Woolard if Ramsey is ragging about SLU on his show. That's plain stupid...taking a bite out of the hand that feeds you. I would send Doug an email...please pass his email address for the out of town fans.

As the people here in Tampa Bay remind about my Rams VS Bucs would hold true with SLU VS SMS...they seem to have our number.

It looks and smells like a 6-5 start to me. That is, if we hold court VS Butler and K-State because I don't see us being able to beat Dayton on the road.

We did just that during several of the Spoon years (play UMKC home and home), and funny but I don't recall even one KC recruit coming to SLU. I prefer tougher schedules and I think as our talent base gets better then we'll see more of the middling type teams instead of the ones holding up the rear. Let's see what next year brings as far as the buy games are concerned.

That's been part of the territory of being a Billiken fan.

I think Brad will do some real soul searching the next couple days with the help of his Assts and I do think that is very possible that changes will come about.
