mods feel free to delete this thread turned into a crap fest sorry I guess in the end haters will hate

Meet up for a fight? what are we 13, no thanks bro

well I shoulda put that differently I don't mean it that way But hell when you work as hard as I do in the gym might as well show off the results

well i apologize is i come across aggressive I guess when you been to short to ride the roller coasters all your life you get that little man syndrome and to the bro above, this is my real pic bro just felt like if you dont put a face next to your comment you lose a little cred anyway back on topic

yes agreed seems like just a bunch of flaming goes on here, kinda distasteful just the internet broskis chill and as someone stated, some kids just can't handle the division one basketball gring, if they can't then they aint the guys your going to make a run in the tourney with anyway

new to the boards, didn't notice there were other threads on the Ellis kid, getting flamed for it I guess, Oh well. Really dissapointed if Ellis don't make it over, this guy will improve the team immensily as everyone around here already knows

1) Motion, toughest offfense in basketball? Not sure if serious you first learn a basic motion offense in highschool. 2) Did you really just bring up Kentucky? Understand, when you have a team full of athletes that can run the court like Kentucky, you can rely less and less on having to out coach a team by way of offense scheme calling. That goes without saying so I wont adress that remark anymore. 3) Isolation sets, we need more of them. JJ beyond the arc, WIllie on on one tight.

Like I said Im going to maintain a little class here and stay above the internet flaming because its lame. Its all about your diet bro, you need to get that weight down so you don't develop hypertension and as I stated, im in the gym 6 days a week and I also train tapout, so any tough guy drunk that thinks hes gonna push me around will be in for a rude awakening.

I hope your kidding me

Was an exageration, just trying to make the point that when SIU goes on the road in conference play they will be far more heckled than they were at SLU. Put your head down and head into the locker room, or else look up at the score board and smile.(which they won't be doing a lot of)

Seriously, if they think they get that worked up about catching ###### from 13 slu students, just wait until the go on the road to Creighton or "insert valley school here", they won't know what hit them.

I agree 100% And im dissapointed in Lowery, SLU is going to beat up on SIU annually for a long time

I knew some idiot would bring up highschool stats, understand 98% tore it up at the highschool level (the other 2% being projects). The kid has the hands and basketball IQ to get open and hit the open shot at a good clip, it's just going to take time. Be patient

he's the only guy on the team besides JJ that has been a true scorer on every team he has ever played on his entire life. Trust me on that.

I will make a thread on it later this week to discuss, but let me just say I can't believe there isn't more talk around here about the lack of offensive sets Majerus runs, I mean it's as simple as a double screen up top to get JJ either an open 3 ball look or a quick dish down low to Willie in the paint, take your chances with him one on one. I'm not saying they don't run an offense, but for the most part the offense they run is highly predictable and looks like a slow motion replay.

this is the slu fan board bro no discussion of peptides or juice lets have a little class here anyway looking forward to Quanzo Martin comin back home, MS is tough this year he will have his boys ready to go And back To willie, I don't think Majerus works him in enough as it is, the top of the key spin off alley oop last night was more along the lines of a offensive minded approach, so far in his tenure I've been highly dissapointed in the lack of offensive sets, but lets hope he's turning the page. Gotta give up though, the guy motivates on the defensive end for sure

the kid can flat out put the ball in the basket, just looks young and 0 confidense, but I guarantee all of you before the season is over he will have a 25 point plus game

Didn't mean to come across as a flame on Willie the kid improved alot, just understand he is a long way away from NBA

Alright thanks, and I didn't mean to flame the guy but hey mess with the bull and you get the horns. I think the Ellis deal sucks because I got word from some sources that this kid is the real deal, not league material but the closest thing Slu has seen to it for a while. I know it makes Coach Ricks blood pressure go up everytime he thinks about how his team would look with Cody in the lineup

im 5'6" 190 at 6% bodyfat, got news for ya pal if you really was sittin next to me feel free to smack me but let me tell yo Im a handful anyway back on topic, I havn't seen no threads and just joined, is the bloke gonna head north anytime soon?

Willie has come along way no doubt, but I can't for the life of me understand all the NBA talk. When we get into league play you will see why he is no where near NBA material. In fact, if I was coaching against slu, my whole game plan would be based around getting the ball down low to whoever Willie is guarding, every time. Sure, hes 6'10" so hes gonna get his blocks, but big deal, it is way to easy to post up, back in, jam time. And I don't know what game you all were watching last night, but neither one of those teams played worth a ######. Carbondale is terrible this year, and looking around at some of the A-10, Slu is gonna take some ass whoopins Im just not sold on this whole deal yet, they have a good core to in the future be an at large tourney bid from what it looks like to me. Rickma needs to gather up the alumns and fork over some dough to land someone that can score at will. Then they will be in business

any news on the Ellis kid?
