I have heard a rumor that Majok is transfering from UCONN. And yes im not an idiot. Not Majok Majok. This is a different Majok. 7 footer i think. He'll be a soph.
-
I've seen him play a few times. There is one major problem that I see coming up. He got great size, but because of this size he found himself playing against centers that were the same size. Naturally he could dominate the game just because he had 3 to 7 inches on guys guarding him. A SLU comparison. A weaker Femi. Ball handling, shooting and strength need to improve if he wants to contribute. McCall on the other hand, is the complete package. This guy can do it all, hes gonna be a stud.

Ya. IDK. i think that the reason we dont have a great fan showing is because we dont have things like midnight madness. If you market somthing right it will sell. Midnight madness (dunk contest, three point shootout, just messing around) would be absolutly great for the program and the players. think of how much willie would love it to see all his fans. West Pine gym for sure. That would be great. it would say, "hey, we a Saint louis University and we are ready to be a big time program and have a big time year" so come and support us. And slowly more and more bandwagon fans would come.

I def agree here. But the one thing that makes me nervous is our non-conf schedule. This year people struggled to put us on the bubble because of our RPI and SOS. it seams to me that our non-conf schedule could be a problem again this year. dont get me wrong, if we breez through it thats awsome. but if some random poor quality teams get lucky against us, that will look very bad on our records. also, it will be though to move up the rakings even with a good record because we wont play many big names. I just hope we play some good comp in our ESPN tourny down south.

Im realy excited to see this team take the court and I'm counting the days till it can happen. Why dont we have a midnight madness? I feel that the fans deserve it. All other big time programs do this, why dont we? It would be a great thing for the program and a great thing for the fans. Besides midnight madness would just add hype and publicity to the upcoming season.

Usually its the other way around, a small forward, moving to the power forward spot and having a mismatch, and in turn becoming a better/more effective player . I dont think Ellis at the small forward would necessarily make him a better player. He's been driving because opposing bigs havent been able to chase him out to the 3pt line where most of his attempts come from. As a small forward there will be a guy thats assigned to be out there and somebody he wont possibly have a quickness advantage over. Now if its for the purpose of putting your best 5 guys on the court, that makes sense and I can go along with that. But I'm not so sure he needs to become a small forward to become a better player.
Ya i agree with that. I just think he should start the game at 3. Obviously he can play the 4. But our team really doesnt have a great 3 gaurd. I think CE could be that. and then when WR and Loe need a breather, he could slide over to the 4. I would just like to see some scoring production out of that 3 gaurd position. KC didnt provide that. I think KC comes off the bench for MM and provides a little spark with his passing.
-
1= KM 2= MM 3=CE 4=Loe 5=WW. This lineup sounds just nasty to me. KM will be dominant because he will not need to score nearly as much. MM really isnt a point guard. you can tell by watching him that 2 fits him perfect. which also fits our team perfect. I expect CE to get in shape because if he does we will see him having his way with smaller 3's. Loe is really gonna give us the ability to spread the court. Imagine 4 out offense with KM drive and dish, or dump to Wille. Im so exicted for next year!!! I dont see how we are going to be stopped. our length on defense is going to kill teams. Very Very promising future
-
imo i think that Loe should play 4 even though he is a little taller than WR.WR belongs in the center position. jump shots are not his thing. Loe can shoot. I think he plays 4.
-
Agreed. This season was great. We were supposed to finish 12th in th A 10 and i specifically RM bluntly saying before the season started that the year was gonna be rough. Hell we almost made the tourney!!! Im predicting top 25 status at some point next year. Down the strech we couldnt rebound at all. Loe will provide that hopefully. i really hope that the hype about him is all true. from the sounds of things he sounds to me just like a taller CE. Ive heard he has handles and can rain the three. I hope he is just strong enough to handle himself in the post as well. anyone know anyting about his post game?
-
117 assits. good for him. but last time i checked point gaurds are supposed to get assits. 3 gaurds score. and Kyle give us 32 min a game of no scoring.
-
I would like to see some numbers that indicate Kyle had a great season. Even if he was playing hurt, that is no excuse to make bad passes and turn the ball over all the time. I really did not see anything from him this year. He had a couple great games. and i mean great. one of those being Dayton. But the bad outweighed the good.
-
CS does have more to offer. KC is only better than CS in one area. Dribbling. Next year. With KM MM and JJ we will never need KC to bring the ball up the court. Starting lineup should be. 1= KM 2=MM 3=CE 4=Loe 5= WR. i know i know. Loe is a center. but the fact is he has better handels than WR and can shoot the three. Willie is a Center. think about it and its obvious. Just my opinion.
-
D1 is a big step up, but keep in mind McCall is from Chi. He sees the best competition in the country for high school. McCall is better right now than KC easy. He should start.
-
I feel like im crazy here. but it seems to me that he is a human turnover. I agree he has great tools. but he is not a starter. Mabye a guy that can come in and provide some spark/energy. But when he is out there playing the minutes he does, he turns the ball over at key times. Cassity should come off the bench next year. I have see McCall play and his defense will be second to none on the team, and he can score which kyle does none off. A couple games ago we had a double overtime game and finished with a score in the 60's. we need scoring gaurds. You can't rely on Ellis, Mitchell, and WR all the time. And KC's defense in not as good as CS's D. KC is a 6th man at best but probably a role player who can give energy. No harm ment here. Just my opinion.

No doubt about it. the house is gonna be packed next year very very often. Once we start seeing a number next to the Bills name (top 25). People will come. and i agree that 10 is pretty good for a hardcore fan, but you can lie and say that free wouldnt be nice to. Im gonna pay the 10 and support. Go Bill!!!
-
ya i agree. put it on the season ticket holders ID cards for post season. that way you reward the true fans. no one is gonna spend 130 for season tickets unless they are a true fan and plan on attending more than xavier and dayton games.
-
I think our home record shows how great the student section rocks the house and supports the team. Perhaps a little reward like free student tickets for the playoffs would be in line to get more that 50 students to show.
-
i agree. we are all poor college students, and it sounds dumb but 10 dollars is a lot. Season tickets should cover this for sure.

Anyone know if anyone picked up a sponsorship like the first two CBI games?
