Billiken Bob's Achievements

Recruit

Recruit (1/7)

  1. Technically he did not graduate in the spring but was allowed to walk across the stage which is not unheard of. He was in class during the summer finishing up his degree during the time we were recruiting him. Whether he finished or not I do not know, but I would assume he did. BTW, everyone on here is way overestimating how much money someone with his credentials is worth in the NIL market. I have no information but I wouldn’t be shocked to see him back at Memphis because I don’t think he ever wanted to leave. I think Penny recruited over him and needed his scholarship. If one were to open up he may end up back there.
  2. We are no longer recruiting Dandridge and haven’t been for quite awhile.
  3. Thank you Roy, but if you reread my post you will notice that I purposely did not say that everyone would be happy. I said that TRUE Billiken fans will be. I am convinced that there is an element on here that do not really root for the Billikens and their postings here on this Board keep me from posting more often. There are some people here that absolutely hate Chris May and/or Travis so much that I don't think anything will please them.
  4. All of you negative Nellies are going to be quite disappointed when the new assistant coach is announced in the next few days, The true Billiken fan is going to be pretty happy.
  5. Thank you for the compliment Brian. I do not know for sure about the NIL roll out, but I think we can rest assured that the same athletic director that finally got chartered flights approved and raises the funds for them, raised $1 million for new locker rooms, is currently building the O'Laughlin Center, has built the new soccer locker rooms and is now working trying to get another big project off the ground is on top of the NIL situation. To agree with my long time friend, Willie, Chris May is the best athletic director at SLU since the 1960's when he and I were in school. Chris will find a way to get the NIL up and started and make it work for us. Unfortunately that means raising more money and you can only go to the same people so many times.
  6. 100% agree on both matters. I watched last nights game with the sound off and listened to Bob and Earl. Bob is a long time friend of mine. However, I remarked to my wife last night that people only listening on the radio get a totally different idea of what is happening on the court than what reality is happening. It's really not fair to the listening audience.
  7. Jordair was an Al Jensen recruit. In fact he had to talk Rick into taking him because of his high school grades. Remember, he had to go the prep school route.
  8. I have the Direct TV Sports package and I show it being on Channel 659 at 8:00 ET. Just got your numbers juxtaposed a little. That channel is viewable right now with the Rich Eisen channel on, so it should work tonight.
  9. I think the other big was Aaron Williams. They were really good.
  10. That is not what I said. I said it is a possibility. This is why I rarely post here. There is one kid who wants a release and one who hasn't qualified--yet. Travis has not advised anybody to leave.
  11. Thanks Rich. I am not a spokesman for SLU. It is up to them to make an official announcement. However, I am sure about one signee asking for a release. There is another who may or may not make it here. But if we analyze things with an open mind, this weekend is a big gain for the Bills. We just signed two very good players and will have their scholarships to use again next year and try to recruit over the one or two players that may not or do not show up this year.
  12. i have already said too much and am signing out. You have unrealistic expectations.
