worthington

At one point in the game, I wondered why IV wasn't played? We sure weren't establishing the post w/ IO. As bad as we were playing, it would have been nice to see IV try and mix it up down there to get a better feel for how fast Div. 1 ball can be and to hone his skills a bit. It couldn't have hurt.

If they played like they did last night, I'd be optimistic as well.

I was at the game dude. Your team looked incredible. Garcia's one helluva a baller.

I was thinking about that last night when I left the game. It will be interesting to see the effects of Brad's personality/ coaching strengths on the team and how they come out playing against Houston. You know he had to feel more than just upset about that lost. Maybe even a little embarassed.

I mean, Marquette certainly deserves to receive all the attention in the world, given the last year's run and for elevating the stature of their basketball program compared to years past. However, stop writing editorials on a national webpage specified for those teams who still have a legitimate tourney shot. To me, it would seem obvious to include a team like SLU whose PROVEN to this pt. in the season to be taken before a team like Marquette. Give credit where credit is due and leave the marketing/editorial aspect out of it if you're gonna be unfair.

Marquette on the bubble before SLU?!?! http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?page=bubblewatch

Yeah, but I'd prefer DePaul over Memphis.

Of course, this have gotta be about money. Is anyone aware what the avg. yearly comparative league revenues are for football vs. basketball in any given conference? For example, how much more $ would the heavier fooball CUSA take in vs. a heavier basketball A-10?

Please...please...let's get this kid. Liddel, Polk, Meyer, Lisch...Get these guys and focus on some big, athletic guys at the post next.

I sh*t my pants cause I'm so excited about this freakin' win. Whoopidy Dooooooooooooooooooo! I gotta go stick my head in some ice water cause I'm feeling so hot. I'm gonna go outside right now and get a pick up game and start schoolin' some cats!

Anyone know about this guy? Is he a junior/senior, etc... How would our scholarship situation work if TL has to go to prep school for first yr? I assume we would have his scholarship spot open for next yr. Is that the last spot open or do we have another scholarship open?

Glad that you posted! Welcome. The crowd was incredible. It was the same type of energy we had at the Arizona game earlier this year, except a lil' better. Crowd was on its feet and really believed that it helped our players. Drejaj kept encouraging everyone to get up and they responded. Lots of fun. Guessing that crowd was about 10,500. Look for more when Louisville shows up.

So...if we get better Depaul and Marquette by the end of the season, we gotta chance? I mean, if we we're the 5th team, what min. RPI would we need?

Screw MU and Laurie. I'm sure MU has got a board somewhere...take it elsewhere. I'm not trying to be offensive...well a lil'...but it's nothing personal. Again...screw MU. I could care less about them.

Somebody help me out here....I'm having a total brainfart...what happened to this guy? He didn't stay at SLU did he? Where did he come from and did he transfer somewhere? I could be totally off.

He's driving me nuts as well but after watching last game, they've gotta do a better job at setting picks! If he can begin shooting w/o having to create space FOR HIMSELF FROM THE GETGO, he can assurely get in his flow. He's too good for this slump to last much longer.

Screw MU or Illini. Fans especially have an obligation to put heat on the coach, the program, other naysayers, and especially other fans to EXPECT SLU to have a top notch program. These things run in cycles and fans have set their expectations high every year from now on. I'm sure Duke didn't kick ass every year since their inception. Forgive me for bringing this up but SLU was considered a national champ one year MANY years ago when NIT was the prized tourney. Now's the time to start putting some heat out there on the coach. I think Soderberg would welcome that type of response other than what's been going on since Highmark, Claggett, and Waldman left. If you remember, their was talk about the program reaching that top notch leve. Hell, even Spoonhour had a freakin' restaurant that the whole city was eating at. Spoonball, remember that. I want a freagin' Soderberg restaurant to eat at and should expect one next year! I'll take that or a 30 min. post-game show only Channel 5 that's treated w/ some enthusiam.
