I always thought that one should be incorporated...

Too bad

Those new unis look NICE

Regardless of ability it does take some time for players to readjust after a redshirt year. Hopefully he can shake the rust and get his D up to snuff with these practices/games.

He told him he had a good game. Not saying its right or allowed under the rules at all (and Kansas did report it), but its a little different than offering a scholarship. Huge advantage (especially for a coach with the prestige of K) to offer a kid when everyone else didn't have contact. Regardless, this will amount to nothing.

Don't think anything will come about this but his former assistants have quit the track record re:violations (Capel @ Oklahoma , Amaker @ Michigan and Snyder @ Missouri). Interesting pattern.

Exactly. Not a stable conference at all. If A&M and OK go to the SEC, Texas probably goes independent, Mizzou and Kansas possibly to the Big East, and the rest (ISU, TTU, Baylor, KSU, and OSU) would be up a creek.

It almost blew up last week because A&M was pitching a fit over the Longhorn Network airing HS games and contemplated a move to the SEC. As for Big 12 expansion, Beebe has repeatedly said they will not seek new members. This is partially because part of the deal that kept the conference together was to split the money less ways. Doubt the conference exists in 5 years.

@ussoccer Bob Bradley has been relieved of his duties as the head coach of the #USMNT. More info: bit.ly/r9TUJH

Big East doesn't expand their footprint with that one. Already have USF down there. Kansas and/or Mizzou are probably the next move whenever the Big 12 implodes.

It's all about football and Memphis is one of the worst teams in D-1. Won't be them.

Past decade for X (2000-2010) 26+ wins 7/10 seasons NCAA tourney: 9/10 years (2 sweet 16, 2 elite 8) A10 champs: 6/10 years A10 tourney champs: 3/10 years 6 NBA draft picks (2 first round), 10 playing overseas That's a pretty good clip for just about any school. There's reasons why people don't consider X (or most of the A-10) midmajors anymore.

Agreed on that... And it's sad. For some reason SLU doesn't want to market/use the Billiken. I don't know many other D-1 universities that don't have the mascot plastered on just about everything in the store. Hard to become more visible in the city/area when most of the merchandise just says "Saint Louis University" or "SLU" in block letters.

This means nothing. Only the stats from the 16U tourney from a few years ago where he averaged 6 points will be the only stats accepted here.

And Rick Majerus is still head coach. Even if Porter was lead recruiter, the offer would have come from Rick himself. Assistant coach leaving won't effect that. I'm sure we would have been a finalist and when he announced he was going to Duke, Purdue, Mizzou, or Notre Dame, we'd all be sad. We've been to 5 NCAA tournaments in school history, most recently in 2000. Bottom line is, as many have pointed out, until we are winning, we're not going to land Top 50 recruits, no matter how close their families are to the program.

Good. Don't want any love. I want our players to play with a chip on their shoulder. We had 11 wins last year. No need to get cocky early. If we make the NCAA that will be quite the turnaround (which this team is quite capable of)

Yes. Source: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2011/writers/andy_staples/02/21/mock.tournament.selection/index.html

I'm guessing Glaze is on campus then?

I think the problem with a new tenant in the existing structure is it would still have the stigma of being shady because of the Del Taco being there all these years. I also agree that historical preservation should be only used in places that have some historical significance. I don't think that the Del Taco building adds anything to the area besides a place to avoid.

I'll believe it when I see it, but I just don't see how the New Mexico game is happening this year. We're already in the 76 Classic with them (granted we might not see them there). Teams are starting to put out their noncon schedules so hopefully we'll know sooner rather than later (since SLU won't officially announce until late August at the earliest)

Or they go pro before they graduate. But there are a good number of transfers out of those programs too because kids want to be closer to home or get more (or some as the case usually is) playing time. The Wear twins out of UNC transfered to UCLA last year after the season to play closer to home. Transfers DO happen in other programs too...

No he didn't. He dropped out of HS during his junior year and played ball in Israel (where he got kicked off his team) and Japan. Kind of a head case as much as I can remember.

Brad Miller would be closer. Collison was a lottery pick.

Jett, Barnett, and now this guy.

More like the Notre Dame Prep pipeline. By my count we have 3 kids on roster from there now.
