Damn. I was excited to see him get some time with the Bulls. The league must be really down on Willie if a rebuilding team like Chicago won't take a flier on him for a few months.
Coincidentally, I compared what Willie should have received to what Cristiano Felicio received from the Bulls - 4 years, 32 million during the offseason. Felicio is probably the worst player on that team too.
Felicio is pathetic, so is his contract. Got sent down to the G-League again today.

Jaylen Adams is not human. Cocky as sh!t... but continuing to make every shot he takes.

Yikes. That amount of pay is the equivalent of a gently used Bentley.
Worth noting, this is not a new case, but is the result of the incident occurring in Miami last year. Looks like they worked just as quickly as SLU's Title IX team. http://www.nba.com/article/2018/02/06/willie-reed-detroit-pistons-suspended-official-release/#/

I have a screen video of all her tweets/replies going back to 2/6/14. Let me know if you want me to send that to you or if you've already got enough.

College Football for me. I have never watched much because I never had a team that I cared for, while pro sports and college basketball were enough to keep me occupied. Now that I no longer have a college bball team, I'll start seeking out a football team to follow. Any suggestions?

It is true he did many great things in his life.
Unfortunately the twelve Federal indictments he had really disappointed me.
He was someone I looked up to as a great Saint Louisan and businessman.
Unfortunately when the Federal indictments came down he was knocked off the pedestal I had put him up on.
I don't think he is an example you would want SLU grads to emulate after the Federal indictments. Sans the indictments - yes. Unfortunality in totality - no.
Fair and balanced.
you. are. the. worst.

You are wrong. Playing college basketball is a privilege, not a right. Student Athlete's need to be held to a HIGHER standard than the rest of the student population.
They are representatives of the University.
The players allegedly made a poor choice of having sex with women who they weren't on the same page as to whether the sex was consensual or not. If this were not true then there would be no investigation.
The players let their teammates, coach and fans down with the poor choice that they made.
Allegedly putting the encounter online and sharing it through the University was incredibly STUPID.
So stupid in fact you have to wonder if you would want them back at the University.
Unless you are a fan of the basketball team and only care about wins/losses.
Troll's daily post limit was used up before 8am. Sign of more good things to come today.
Go Bills.

Go to North Carolina, I hate to say it but they never heard of SLU. Everyone says when I say where I went to school, "oh, you went to WashU".
Don't even have to go that far... try Chicago. Nobody outside of the Catholic high schools know that SLU is a thing.

Tilmon fouled out in six minutes of play tonight.
Barnes had 19 tonight for Indiana St in a loss to Auburn.
He fouled out on Monday as well, in 10 minutes. 10 fouls and 4 turnovers in his last 16 minutes of play.

Tatum looking great in the first game of the season. Going to get quite a bit of playing time now that Hayward is out for at least a few months.

If your kid ever has doubts about their ability to obtain their dream job, show them one of Hochman's articles. Honestly, it blows my mind that this guy is paid to write. His articles are all over the place and never have structure.
It is not my intention, but every time I read his articles I naturally end up reading it in a Jim Rome voice/speaking style.
His ratio of periods to words has to be one of the highest in the biz.

So ESPN just copied week old information, passing it off as "Breaking News", and suggested that players were suspended, before taking that part out of the story?
Solid journalism all around.
What we have come to know and love about ESPN over the past decade. They are crumbling.

I did a little digging, I was wrong (I might have been thinking about the business school's ranking being #64ish).
This site shows a list from 2008-2015 of each school and how their rankings have changed: http://publicuniversityhonors.com/2015/06/13/u-s-news-national-university-rankings-2008-present/
Here is an updated chart showing 2010-2017: http://publicuniversityhonors.com/2016/09/18/average-u-s-news-rankings-for-126-universities-2010-1017/
So, since 2008, #80 was our peak, in 2009. Not sure about the years before that though.

Question for everyone:
What's the highest that you have seen SLU ranked by US News? When was it?
I could have sworn we were around #64 back in 2008ish.

I have always really liked 247 sports' crystal ball. After seeing seven different recruiting "experts" flip Gordon to Mizzou, I think I am going to call it quits with them. They seem to know just as much as a casual message board or tweet reader. They just jump on the bandwagon and do whatever they can to earn points despite not actually knowing anything.

Aaaand that's 21 points for the Portland Pilots.

Humps is certainly being sold in the very near future. The current plan is for the potential new owners to make some changes and open it back up as a bar, but there are some obstacles (required renovation costs in particular) that could mess with that plan.

Now here's a stat not even the Wiz could have uncovered:
"A commitment from Tatum would not only change a basketball team, but also would shine hope on a city that’s seeing its darkest hours. The affect of SLU basketball on the city of St. Louis cannot be overemphasized. For example, the three best Billiken seasons in the best [think this should say "last"] 15 years (’12,’13,’14), also saw the city’s lowest crime rates in that same period of time. Over this last season, arguably SLU’s worst over the past decade and a half? Homicide rates are up 60%, according to KSDK."

The NCAA states that you can't SELL the items for economic gain, so would it be different if the shirts were given out for free instead of put up for sale?
I tried using the defense that I was selling at cost with the Air Jordair shirts when talking to the Athletic Department about the Cease and Desist. They stated that because someone somewhere was making money (the shirt makers, the ink providers, etc.), the shirts were still against the rules.

Any chance that the fans in 108 and 110 are so loud, intimidating, and obnoxious during VCU's warm ups that the majority of VCU's players just accept defeat before the game?
Based on every game so far this season, not a chance. Biondi stands more than the student section. Thankfully the band always brings it, let's hope the nerds sitting next to them get hammered for this one and bring a little life.
