Hope you like zone defense

You can't rant about all the bad in Billikens basketball when you don't understand basketball. Good job, good effort. I'd rather read a Metz blog. And boom goes the ... too soon?

STL Hoops Insider is the worst poster on this message board. It's not even close. Watch a basketball game one time for me.

Humps or bust.

"Who TF stands up for an opening tip anywhere, save for perhaps a national championship game?" In a post b*tching about the game atmosphere..

Hearing rumors John Stamos could potentially make an appearance at Butler game. Still working on details, but his original plan of attending the VCU game might be bumped due to a Beach Boys commitment. #Developing

"Grandy is on the court he will, for the most part, draw their most physical defender. I think this could open up a lot of space for Loe who doesn't do well against athletic, physical defenders." I'm affraid I disagree. If teams scout SLU, they will notice Glaze spends the majority of his time on the offensive end of the court setting screens. Literally a zero on the offensive threat levels. Gets his points by crashing the boards and, at least last night, overplaying the passing lanes and getting easy layups (Product of playing Dukes that won't happen again). Basically, teams won't waste a key defender on Glaze. BUT, he is another body off the bench that can provide energy and toughness when needed. Instead wanting him to have a 'big' role, be content with him perfecting 'his' role.

The wait is over! Here is your STL player on Bills roster: http://www.foxsportsmidwest.com/11/27/12/Sean-Duff-Added-to-Billiken-Roster/landing_stlbillikens.html?blockID=826471&feedID=10336

It is hard work being a billiken fan, you guys.

I am not sure why everyone is getting all upset about this. Valpo will be one of the best non-bcs schools in the country next year, and will provide a great opportunity for a 'quality win'... They should run their conference. This is a great move short-term. Win now, continue to build on last season's success. Get bigger games down the road. That's how it works. Didn't think I would hear this much b*t*hing about a schedule featuring New Mexico, Washington, (this year, a really good) Valpo, Texas A&M, KU/WSU .. local schools in SIUC & E + EIU.. and not to mention a loaded conference schedule (whoever said last year's teams are equal to this year needs to be banned) The schedule is working out in our favor to a ridiculous degree. THIS IS A GOOD THING! All non-conferance home games are winnable. and the conference home schedule is almost unfair because virtually every contender comes thru the chaifetz.

It is not $$ related.

all i wanted him to say was 'that's a clown question, bro'

Please never compare GG to Blake Griffin ever again. Stick with a mini-Barkley. Thanks.

good article... but this is nothing new... Majerus made all these same comments months ago. Good to have the World Wide Leader on our side though. Maybe they will pick up some games...

There are only two things that will regress from last years' squad: 'tough guy' interior presence & grade point average

When will there be a press release issued about bryce husak making the USA Olympic roster?

"- some coaches will pick LaSalle and St. Joe's to win the league. ( I think that's what he said. He didn't make much sense during this part.)" St. Joe's will be as dangerous as any team in the league this year. VCU, UMass, SLU and St. Joe's are my top 4 heading into next season with the Rams taking home the A-10 title in their first season in the league.. I've said it before, but St. Joe's, to me, is very comparable to what SLU would have been two years ago if the 'incident' would never have taken place.. I expect big things..

classic mix up. That was my mother and I on the cover.

Not much. I just got done shooting the cover of Time Magazine with my mom and had time to contribute to this conversation...

It's the entry level ticket sales.. Very competitive to get into the position, but that is generally how you get into the organization these days because when other positions open up, they generally look to the DSR guys first..

Keep in mind that Majerus prefers a 7-8 man rotation..

Question somebody needs to ask: Will KC get significant playing time? Yes: Rick loves him. JB does not take next step. He is as good as advertised aka Andre Miller part 2. Injuries. No: Getting Manning-type hype from Rick. JB steps up. Polk effect. Kwamain dominates.

Maybe you haven't heard... the illini will be better with Groce.. a more fast a furious type game which will play much better with the type of athletes they already have. See '12 Mizzou with a deeper bench..

so wet
