Band please read what I said. I acknowledge that Brad did a bad job of recruiting. However Rick left the team with no options by getting rid of the rest of the players. None of the players were an answer to a maidens but Knollmeyer and Relephorde would be getting some minutes with the team in it's present state. Not as starters but some bench depth.

Cassity looked terrible against GW when under pressure he hit Eberhardt with the pass that led to the winning basket and FT.

The only reason Kevin and Tommie may not be living up to the expectations of others is that there is no junior or sophmore class. The fault is with the Majerus and Soderberg. The first got rid of players and the other didn't get the players that could help them. The net result is that freshmen are the only option and in D1 that is a huge problem no matter how good they are. Let's just be glad we have a Kevin and Tommie that are good players and men. I'll take them with any of their perceived warts instead of some of the knuckleheads you see playing on some teams.

Has there been any update on Kevin and Paul's condition? Are they out for sure or is there a chance either or both will be available. Without both of them we're down to a seven man rotation.

I was at the women's game yesterday and there was some questioning by the officals about the clock. By the way I implore you to see the women play. They play hard and T. Lisch might be the best player male or female to wear Billiken Blue.

Actually he was at U.A.L.R. (Arkansas Little Rock)

Can anyone remember a busier sports weekend at S.L.U. than the one facing us. A men's basketball game on saturday, woman's hoops on sunday, men's soccer on friday and the A-10 Volleyball tournament. This is truly Nirvana for Billiken sports fans!

If it's this bad when Mcguire scores 33 in an exhibition, what will it be like when Obi and Horace lead their teams to the "Final 4"

It was $10.00 and getting out after this game was a breeze. I don't expect it to be as easy once we start to have bigger crowds.

Bob passed years ago.

That may be the cruelest thing ever said about anyone or thing in the history of this board!

FACT: We can't wait. He's a real talent!

He's Wallace Robinson's favorite punching bag, Ron Ekker. Who only exceded his bad coaching with his bad off court behavior.

The guy in my avatar was partly to blame. However the administration has to get most of the credit because they hired him.

Andy Strickland is the ultimate nobody. Why are can't everyone just ignore him? He's like an itch he'll eventually go away.

If we're going to see a D-II school shouldn't we pay D-II pricing for the ticket?

If we play a preseason game with a local team wouldn't the current D-III national champions at Washington U. be the most attractive opponent? Some on the board may remember that we opened the refurbished Francis Field House against the "Battling Bears." It was Monroe and Roland's first game as Billikens. No slam on Harris Stowe or U.M.S.L. but Wash U. has a much better tradition then either of them.

Nate, is there still a chance to grab anyone else as either a transfer from another school or a player for this year?

Does anyone have an idea when the schedule will in fact be announced? This piecing it together is great mental exercise but it has begun to get tedious.

Don't we all feel better when Diddy comments on things? Now if we could get Guest to start posting again things would even better in Billikenland.

Thicks, Niemann was a star for Bishop Dubourg. His wife is Julie Niemann the financial expert that you see on various television stations. I think Rich coached the Billiken woman's team in some capacity for awhile. Possibly with John O"Brien. It's also amazing to see how many points Kevin Footes scored in so little playing time. He had a world of talent but was a huge knucklehead.

According to the M.S.U. schedule printed in the Post-Dispatch the Bills and M.S.U. will not be playing this season.

If you look at the grid SluSignGuy linked to on the Dayton board it looks as if we'll have a home and home with Richmond.

According to the Dayton message board here are some of our conference opponents. Home St. Joseph UMASS Charlotte Duq. Away Rhode Island Xavier St. Bonaventure Duq. I know it's not much but it is more then we're getting from SLU.

According to some of the A-10 message boards we'll have the Dukes home and home next year.
