Bills add another JUCO pitcher from powerhouse Cypress College in California. 30 K in 28 innings is nice but 8+ ERA isn’t that exciting. We seem to be adding JUCO arms instead of D1 transfers this year.

Well we are now a little over a month before the season starts. I guess you need a head coach before you can actually release your schedule. Here are the games that I have found so far... August 31 at Ball State September 6 home vs Ohio September 12 at Bellarmine September 19 at St. Joe's October 3 at Richmond October 26 home vs Lock Haven October 31 at Davidson The cool thing is for those of us coming back home for Bronze Boot weekend, SLU will be hosting a VB tournament and a FH game as well! Now CM, hit pause on the podcasts and HIRE A DARN COACH.

Help Us Dr. Feser, You’re Our Only Hope!

If thats true about the volleyball team that is pretty bad. Seems like that would be good information to get to Stu. I'm sure the PD wouldn't care but I would like to see Mr Durando ask some tough questions. -

A Roy Firestone and a Herb Tarlek reference in the same post. Our septuagenarian fanbase should appreciate. -

Minor portal update. Reserve catcher Patrick Mendiola has signed with Div 2 Quincy University We still need some major bullpen help and at least 1 starting pitcher. Not sure who they are bringing in from the high school class

Interesting. I didn't know he was back in the states. Hertha had their Christmas training in 2019 in Tampa and played a friendly there that I got to see him play. My favorite SLU road game of all time was in 2003 when SLU with Vedad played at Furman, who happened to have a freshman forward named Clint Dempsey. SLU won 1-0 in OT. Crazy that that game would have two freshmen that would go on to become World Cup stars

SLU Men's Soccer Thread

What an amazing year he had at SLU! HE led the nation with 24 goals in 2001, playing alongside terrific offensive weapons Brad Davis and Jack Jewsbury, both of whom were long time professionals. He did play briefly in MLS and Europe and represented his home country Botswana in international tournaments. -
Not a new card but got this authentic shirt for about $10+ ship. Very cool. After leaving SLU he scored the first World Cup goal in Bosnia's history and became a terrific striker in the Bundesliga for several years.

Nice haul today…Pat Clohisy’s first professional card and a cool 8x10 of him with the Braves in Spring Training.

Pat had his first four hit game Monday, he is up to an awesome 46 stolen bases and playing terrific defensive outfield

OT - The Red Panda is retiring
OkieBilliken replied to slubilliken09's topic in Billikens.com Main Board
Trying to remember any half time acts we have bought in Red Panda was always great. I saw her at a TCU women's basketball game about 8 years ago and she definitely had lost a step. Cant believe she was still performing. Bud Light Daredevils - the first time I saw them they were amazing. Then it was pretty much the same act year after year so it got kind of stale. When we played Spirit Express, we always got a halftime sermon. That was fun. I remember alot of wheelchair basketball at Kiel -
Agree with some of this. One reason why I have maintained my fandom and support long after graduation is the high quality of student athletes SLU has developed. A ton of terrific young men and women who represent the school very well. I dont take for granted how many end up on the commissioners list. However there is no financial reason why SLU can't compete for conference championships in every sport they play in and Chris May has failed us on this in several areas. We are not competitive OR have substandard facilities OR BOTH in Swimming/Diving, Tennis, Field Hockey, Baseball, Softball, and previously successful programs Women's BBall and Volleyball are trending in the wrong direction. There was much to be proud of last year but they have ALOT of work to do.
