You will recognize "I ain't getting on no time machine." Classic line from Bad News
That is one of the most classic lines of all time! I still get laughs when I tell that story.

I hate to point this out, but latest NET rankings:
North Texas - 129
Saint Louis - 216
SLU's NET is going to be skewed all season by the 39 point blowout loss at SIUC.
SLU's RPI is 114. In advance, I know the NCAA uses the NET, and no longer uses the RPI as its College Basketball metric, although the RPI is still used in other sports, such as Soccer. But the old metric does show how badly the NET is skewed by 1 isolated outlier. North Texas' RPI is 242.

The Fly is open , let's go Peay.!
Fly Williams -Austin Peay
An oldie but a goodie
Fly Williams is a former Spirit of St. Louis in the ABA. What a group of characters the Spirits had, led by Marvin Barnes, Maurice Lucas and Freddie Lewis. Even Moses Malone and Caldwell Jones were Spirits. Growing up, I listened to young Bob Costas call the action on KMOX and simulcast on TV. There was nothing quite like seeing the Spirits of St. Louis play on TV at a near empty Mid-South Coliseum vs. the Memphis Tams or at a near empty Scope in Norfolk, VA vs. the Virginia Squires.

Jimerson got fouled, no call.

Why go small @ crunch time?

Fr. Rozier sitting in same baseline row as Jayson Tatum … only at SLU.

Up 2 at the 4, Hofstra shooting FT’s.
-
Down 1 at the under 8.
-
If SLU could hit some some shots, SLU would be ahead in this game. As is, only down 2 at half, this game is there to be won. Let’s get the Win.

Boston Celtics Superstar Jayson Tatum is sitting courtside at today’s SLU game.

I like the lady broadcaster. Very pro SLU but not overly so. Scott doing usual fine job.
Alexa Datt is high energy, well prepared, is doing an excellent job.

I thought Bennett was an AC under Spoon. Am I wrong?
Randy Bennett was Assistant Coach under Lorenzo Romar for the first two of Romar's three years at SLU.

Like last year SLU continues to miss way too many layups and bunnies, especially layups.

But losing by 34? That’s a beat down. I watched some of it and kept wondering why we didn’t try and bring Bennet back. St M’s is a very solid team. The A10 is not even a shadow of its former self. They were primarily EC teams that could get good players from EC high schools and AAU teams. Obviously those days are fading fast.
Randy Bennett has stayed away from PAC-12 employment to stay at St. Mary’s in Moraga, where his son is a reserve guard on the roster.

Santa Clara up on Oregon at the half. Let’s face it, we have neither the sustained success nor the financial resources to buy our way into the BE any time soon. Would rather be in the WCC than the A10 until Old Guy bribes Val Ackerman with a briefcase full of stamps, rare coins, and two dollar bills.
Santa Clara (6-0) 88 Oregon 82 - Final;
Boise State 65 VCU (3-3) 61 - Final.
-
@St. Mary’s 89 Davidson 55 - Final. Both are 3-3. Gaels break 3 game losing streak.
-
VCU blows 15 point lead, gets outscored 14-2 at the end, loses 68-64 to Iowa State.

Happy Thanksgiving!

If the goaltending reversal is allowed, since SLU had possession, at minimum SLU should have been given possession post-reversal.
