I kinda like having some space open around me. Mask or no mask too many of you guys are loud talkers and heavy breathers!

I had heard that were targeting 800 total per game. That includes fans, player families and staff.

I have been to the last two games. My regular season tickets are in 115. It seems they are somewhat "randomly" assigning people to seats on a game by game basis to spread people out. Saturday I was up in the 200's and last night I was in 110 behind the basket. I wonder if their plans are to continue inviting the same season ticket holders or rotate the list at all. This afternoon I got an email about tickets to next Tuesday's La Salle game. After La Salle there are only two more home games. Of course there could be additional postponements or reschedules.

Looks like others have the same idea about not playing the Star Spangled Banner at sporting events. It would be fine by me. Dallas Mavericks won't play national anthem at home games Bruce Arena says national anthem at sporting events is "inappropriate"

Why do they even play the Star Spangled Banner at sporting events?

After reading through the Goodwin thread I was curious about others thoughts regarding the play of our other 4 year senior. I am a big Hasahn fan and have been bummed by how his senior season has gone so far. He doesn't seem right. Maybe it was the early season concussion, off-season covid, grandmother's passing, etc. I don't know what it is but he hasn't been the dominant Hasahn from past seasons. That includes before the team pause this season. His avg. points, avg. rebounds, blocks per game, minutes, ft% are all down. I hope the STB game is a positive pivot for the run through the rest of the regular season and beyond. I also hope we see more of the "old" Hasahn as he wraps up his Billiken career.

I read this as it was SLU personnel they are referring to seeing maskless at the Westin in Richmond. Pure speculation.

Sounds like there may have been others maskless in Richmond.

Thinking the women’s team may pull a Duke soon.

I am waiting for my phone to ring. I am going to put it next to my bed when I go to sleep.

Past seasons nearly all FSMW broadcasts were SLU home games.

I am almost 12 months in to my first year discounted Athletic subscription and need to decide if I renew. The price jumps for the 2nd year. For me they provide good pro sports content (more than I need) with some mid-major college basketball coverage. I also use the fantasy sports content because I am STILL playing fantasy football after all these years. SLU gets a few mentions here and there. Probably more mentions than a few but I am biased and expect more. Happy to see this reading College Hoops Mailbag this morning. Shoutout to Andy T. As a 15+ ppg scorer and the best rebounding guard in the country, could Saint Louis’ Jordan Goodwin get All-American consideration this season? — Andy T. I cannot say it any clearer: There is always a Saint Louis question in the mailbag. And, as always, I answer it the same way: If things break right, look out for the Billikens as a dark horse national title contender.

Frank just said he got a text from a SLU assistant saying they feel “good” about Nesbitt.

This got me pumped up this afternoon! Need to get my renewal processed! I love that they went back to the White Stripes for the soundtrack. That Seven Nation Army intro song back in the day was AWESOME! Message from Jordan Goodwin

I don't know what their plan is but in the new SLU video released yesterday TF says, "Team Blue Nation, I can't wait to see you in Chaifetz Arena." TF sounds confident but unfortunately he doesn't exactly say when it may happen. Billiken Athletics - I'm in. We're in. #OneSLU

I just noticed the link is to the same even a few years ago.

This note came home from my son's elementary school. I will be a volunteer chaperon for a group of 4th graders rocking my Billiken gear. It includes multiple school districts. I heard they are expecting 9,000 kids. February 19-Billiken Books and Basketball Day at Chaifetz Arena Note from Mr. Velten (PE teacher) about this experience: Recently I came across a unique field trip learning experience that I thought would be great for our 4th grade students at Avery. PTO has graciously agreed to pay for busing, and the rest of the field trip is completely FREE. What is this awesome field trip? It is called Billiken Books and Basketball Day at Chaifetz Arena, on the campus of Saint Louis University. This event provides students with the opportunity to learn about living a healthy lifestyle at a hands on Health Fair. The Health Fair will be followed by watching a women’s collegiate basketball game between the SLU Billikens and Fordham University. Tickets and lunch are both free and provided by Saint Louis University. https://slubillikens.com/news/2016/1/27/210667688.aspx

I am glad no one used these tickets. The game sucked. That first loss at Duquesne was no fluke.

I have three extra tickets for tonight in Section 115 Row L. Yours if you can use them

I would imagine his daughter Lauryn playing on the Billiken women's team doesn't hurt either.
