Not everyone wants to hear propaganda which is what Frank pretty much is. I don't waste my time listening, so I don't consume any of it, but I suppose it is better than nothing for those who do.

One problem with Frank is that folks know about him or know him away from the radio/tv and his behavior is not in line with some of his commentary. The other issue I have is that he tends to overplay what he knows. Ultimately, who cares I suppose, I will take him talking about SLU with excitement even if it is essentially as a mouthpiece for the program (gotta keep those sources haha).

I saw one thing that listed the top choices for Arkansas likely being Beard, Wade, and Tang. I have no idea the validity of that, but at least something I saw concerning Arkansas and who they would likely target that did not include Schertz.

Didn't he go to SLU? Heck of a shooter if I remember correctly. Anyways, those CBC teams were tough (as was De Smet when they had Keppel and Joe Ries) and Ryan Sapp was quite the player as well. David would have played with most of that crew growing up, but obviously someone with that pedigree isn't going to CBC hahaha (he came to Chaminade by way of John Burroughs). But, you are right, Vashon was the top dog back then with guys like Joel Shelton, Jimmy McKinney, etc.

Really impressive run. Especially when you look at how they dominated the tournament last year, see who they lost from that roster (Sanogo, Hawkins, Jackson, Calcaterra, and Alleyne), and watch how they are dominating the tournament again this season albeit going in as the favorite this spring.

Carrie Underwood? Nice legs on Mrs. Underwood.

I used to judge Grandy based on his post-SLU activity, but seeing it spelled out like this with his name, his future had already been written. I hope he is doing the glazing vs. being glazed, at least I think that is what I would hope for him.

I find myself watching the Saint Joseph’s/Seton Hall game just because when I put it on the Hawks had a solid lead and I want to see how Lange blows this!

I have been convinced, the most important quality needs to be the likelihood that the candidate would be willing to stay in St. Louis at SLU for 32 seasons. How could you possibly know any candidate would stick around at SLU if bigger programs with more lucrative offers came calling? Ahearn didn’t go to SLU, so who’s to say he would turn down opportunities if he were to succeed at SLU. And why is that a bad thing if it means the coach had success here? The key is finding that first part and not being overly concerned with the second part.

It’s a bold strategy…..

I missed some of it, did he give a reason for not liking the idea of Schertz? I heard him say that he didn't want some young up-and-comer generically, but Schertz is not that. Nobody should have to deal with Slaten, just a complete a$$hole. I am pretty confident that Blake and Troy Slaten would have played together back in the day on a team called the Celtics, included the Oppland twins as well.

I only caught Slaten calling you a moron after you were on, but did listen to Peter with the other guy. He at least let Peter talk between his aggressive lobbying for Blake.

Holy smokes, dudes on 590 the Fan legitimately going hard in the paint for Blake Ahearn. Hilarious!

Agree. I work in management consulting, so I was just making a joke.

Let’s not trash consultants, we are just trying to make a living!!!

Yeah, saying we were worried about that is rather extreme. Maybe a couple of folks on here posted that, but I assume they were quickly shot down for having Ford remotely on Kentucky's radar to replace Calipari.

Very strange, I am seeing this on their website: DAVIDSON, N.C. – Due to non-COVID health and safety protocols within the Davidson women's basketball program, the Wildcats' Atlantic 10 Conference game at Saint Louis scheduled for Saturday, March 2 has been canceled. The contest will count as a forfeit for Davidson in accordance with league rules and will not be rescheduled.

In basketball or cheerleading?!?! Thanks for the info, I try to keep tabs on guys and that is one I completely missed.

Where did Cisse end up? I completely forgot about him.

For sure. I love that Jimerson could get 3 senior nights!

The box score shows 5,359 in attendance tonight. I had no interest in attending, but will be at my high school’s game tomorrow evening!

Hahaha. I posted from my phone and it ended up posting 4 times, but then I thought it kind of worked in response to the oroginal post!
