[Interesting read on JUCOs]

Thats with the top six conferences.

How did the JUCO players do in the other conferences. Most of the big six get the higher rated players to start with and its a lot harder to get minutes there.

[Great article about the student section and ticket poli]

AS an old person who ofton felt like he was the only person inthe building screaming his lungs out. I believe we old people could teach the present generation a thing of=r two about supporting the team.

Thanks just couldn't handle that last sentence.

[I was wrong...]

Personally I cna't wait to attend the first game in the new arena at SLU.

Maybe I will be able to finally hear someone yelling in support of the team during the game versus the silence endured at the Scotts Trade Center.

A few more good players wouldn't hurt either....How about Boyle from Desoto last night for SIU? Nice game.

[First post ever.]

I just think that if I would have been a recruit and I looked at this board. I would have second thoughts about coming here in the "supporters" of the team where this negative about the coach.

I don't know but I would thing that the people who give large donations may have more attenion paid to their opinoins listened to more than the rants on this blog.

[First post ever.]

I have been reading this board for the last couple of weeks.

1st. I'll tell ou right up front I am no expert, just someone who likes to go to the games.

I don't like to lose any more than the next person.

However there seem to be a few who post to this board that would like to be running the show.

You might get the chance is you all would put up your 12 million dollars to support the school as one fine alum did.

So, to all you negative posters...get out your check books or get of the schools back and let them do their jobs.

I don't have the money..I'm a retiree who just enjoys going to the games and would love to see the billikens make the ncaa every year too.

They have come a long way from when I watched them in the old Kiel arena.

Thanks for letting me vent.
