i dont think too many will play 30 minutes, if that happens then the freshman would be disappointing. i think the roster goes deep and a many will play. if perkins goes 11 i think that will be a very good number considering the depth

stuen set up the visit for my son and i when went to vcu. i was very impressed with the young man

i remember getting shafted on the season ticket deal,

the way yow treated grawer was deplorable

very few are a rm. ford is just fine

Ford has done an ouststanding job of coaching, he made a team that relied heavily on a walk on and made them competitive, last year he coached a team to a championship after losing key players and multiple injuries. not sure why anyone thinks he cant coach

I believe will find that hankton also can hit an outside shot. it has been reported that jacobs shot looks good. many freshman make a big jump in there soph year.jimerson had a prep school year playing against top competition. i agree with clock tower there will be shooters on this team

I will drink the koolaid along with you. goodwin, thatch, and french will dominate physically and when the frosh get up to speed Team Blue will be feared. Collins will find the shooters and i can see this team doing a lot of running

Gush all you want slu72, Big Bill Fan was on yuri months ago and i think it will be awesome to have a real point guard. gushing over recruits is what the offseason is about

Lets not forget hankton, he is legit 6'8" and just may grow into that 4 or occasional 5 spot

i agree, the fact that he is white means he is not athletic, that is what is in the minds of most. Larry Bird was not the most athletic and he seemed to be a plus player. From watching his tape i for one think his athleticism is just fine and if he scores enough he will be on the floor as he learns defense. tremaine certainly wasnt a plus defender

I think it is a bit early to write off jacobs, he hasnt shown much but i have seen a lot of billikens blossom their junior year. if ford has patience so do i

i believe that yuri will get starter minutes, but also there will be games when he plays like a freshman and having weaver will fill those minutes, i hope jacobs steps up, but at this point he hasnt shown anything to be optimistic about. ford has depth and options the bills havnt had in a very long time

i believe you are right, if jimerson makes shots he will get minutes. his defense will only have to be slightly better than a matador and he will play

sorry i forgot i am not allowed, please forgive me your honor sir

new guys are supposed to quietly read posts for a period of years i think and then you might be deemed worthy of expressing your opinion or maybe not. jk of course but some take their selves a bit too serious

Big Bill has been saying that about yuri for months

in many case more scholly help is available at naia schools than d1. that was the case with my nieces

exactly, u can get to a short bench very fast, outside of collins and jacobs both unproven the guard roster is thin. an injury there and a walk on might be playing

Grad transfers are here to stay and if coach ford finds one that will help there is no reason to leave spots open. if the gt is better than who we have then we might win more games. if jacobs steps up the gt is on the bench, we should look to win every year and not write one off as a rebuild

if 15lbs will make bell a contributor he will easily make that by nov. he lost 100lbs in a year, cant wait to see him in nov

weaver would be a good pickup as we are thin at the guard spot. not sure ford "held out" possibly those he wanted just said no and went on to the p5 schools

agree, sustained winning will change all. the kids stl dont think of SLu as a destination and quite honestly with the athletic history why would they. multiple runs in the tourney over the years and that will change

his pt guard skills were nothing like yuri's, he was mediocre at best, didnt play there much
