Torrence Watson was on campus today for a visit.

The guy just gets it...he is on campus right now welcoming students on Move In Day. Hope this equates to more buzz on campus.

6'4" for a PG in college is quite large.

Unfortunately, MB never turned out to be the tall ball handler Crews thought we needed after the Oregon game. The vision was to have him as a match up nightmare with his height and a strong enough ball handler to help against VCU. Injuries and other factors made sure it never came to fruition. At least he will still have Brooklyn to remember.

The Illini board will implode when Tillmon signs with SLU. It's been fun trolling their board and what they think of our little program. Not sure why they still care since I am sure they have more recruiting wins against us than we them.

Who hasn't had a nightmare of The Billiken chasing them?

Wonder if SLU overpaid for Goodwin? Apparently SLU just started talking to him last week...huh?

You mean those posting with under 10 messages to their credit? Maybe SLU is receiving new fans in August. Seems right.

Even the Big10 Network won't show Illini athletics

Illini board does point out once Ford gets a few good recruiting classes here, he will bolt...maybe. Would be nice to steal Tillman from them as well.

2017 PF Tyler Polley (6-9, 210, 4★) | Overall Rank: 106 | Position Rank: 19 has trimmed his list, and removed Saint Louis from consideration. 2017 SF RaiQuan Gray (6-8, 259, 3.5★) | Position Rank: 22 committed to Florida State.

With all due respect, Goodwin is no Tatum

Carson Newsome committed to Milwaukee today. Had a SLU offer but who doesn't at this point.

Not sure the scholarships availability but Ford offered another 3 schollys today. I lost count how many offers for 2017

7/18/2016 - 2017 C Malik Williams (6-11, 225, 4★) | Overall Rank: 118 | Position Rank: 8 has received an offer from Saint Louis. Ranked #1 center by ESPN and #5 PF by Scout

Michael Porter Jr committed to Washington. Shocking.

Blake Harris committed to Washington

2017 Isaac Kante 6'8" (Brooklyn, NY) has received an offer from SLU.

I am wondering when SMU will be placed on probation. Pulling a Calipari.

"Force on the interior" is a quote attributed to Agbeko. Funny

No shock...I will just need to be heavily medicated until next season

Don't forget floor general and gritty

With the amount of Guards offered in 2018, maybe TF is concerned with the future at this position. Today Foster Loyer was offered by SLU. 3 star PG out of Michigan. Verbal Commits calculates 4 PG and 10 SGs offered.

2018 PG Coby White (6-5, 175, 4★) has received an offer from Saint Louis. Looks like the dead period ended today to contact 2018 recruits. Looks like White is being recruited by the big boys.
