Slu let the dogs out?

Not sure if these last 2 posts are real or if it was just my gummy finally kicking in.

Same but I'll gladly take late games on national tv than none at all. Didn't watch a single Wizzards game last year. I've already watched 3 of the Suns 4 games. Looks like at least 3 more national tv games this month.

The NCAA reminds me a lot of the state agencies I work with to process tax credit transfers. Not a lot of motivation to pick that file up in a timely manner and if you tick them off your file magically moves to the bottom of the pile. Also understaffed (usually intentionally though).

On TNT again this Tuesday (Halloween) against the Spurs. I think Jack’s son was sitting in his seats last night.

Spent half of his court time whining to the refs. Pretty sure he got T’d up for one of his tantrums.

Helluva Q1 for Goodwin: 7 points on 3-3 shooting.

I’m sure this has been posted previously so my deepest apologies but do we pronounce his name Georgie Kerr-chich? Actually never mind I’ll just ask Gus Phillips.

Glass half full approach. I like it.

I watched the 7 minutes he played in the first half but fell asleep before he got back into the game in the 2nd half. Did not look good those first 7 minutes. Hopefully just first game jitters.

Looking forward to waking up in 5 years to find ourselves in a flaccid A10 conference with no Dayton or VCU, where our top 3 home and home series are against Richmond, a Schmidt-less Bonnie’s team, and the fighting Sister Jean Blers of Chicago. Talk about getting the blood flowing!

Goodwin makes his debut for the Suns with 2 minutes left in the 1st quarter. Nice intro by commentators.

Walked past Hargrove in the Loop last month and had I not known any better I would’ve guessed 6’8 235. Dude looked huge. Don’t think that translates to a productive 4/5 role but there don’t appear to be many options.

He’s the Wiz! Prediction: after leading us to a national championship, LHII declares for the draft and is picked up in the first round by the Suns. 2024-25 starting lineup for the Suns: Durant, Beal, Goodwin, Hughes (traded Booker because that town ain’t big enough for the both of them), and Nurkic.

Have you guys ever considered having Troy R on your show to discuss the BVF?

It’s not just biased SLU fans. Small sample size but pretty much all of my Mizzou, Indiana, Kentucky, Marquette, Memphis, and Kansas friends feel the same way. That SLU checks off boxes that the top mid-majors do but are somehow completely incapable of exploiting those things that separate the top programs from the rest. Even the things that are completely out of SLU’s control, such as being the highest level of hoops in a top 25 market. Their impression is that the success of the men’s basketball program is just not a high priority for the university.

Hell I’d pay $500 if it came with some t ravs, 8 margaritas, and jumping on the court to lead the team in some Pistol Pete Homework basketball drills EDIT: wish he made one for defense

Suns vs Nuggets Tuesday at 9pm CST TNT

Ohio Valley or B12? In which conference will SLU end up!? If you will it, it is no dream.

This. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 (or 366) days a year. The panacea for our ills is winning. Lots and lots of winning. Seems easy, let's do it.

Wtf I just bought Suns season tix. Seriously though I was really looking forward to rooting for J Good and the Suns this season. Was all in on them with an NBA League Pass purchase in my near future. I don’t follow the NBA that closely. Let’s hope you’re wrong but assuming he’s bought out, does anyone have a good guess as to what team has the room and could use a Goodwin-type player the most? Impossible to predict?

The girls and I had a blast at our first game. Win or lose, the games appear to be very entertaining. I was shocked at how crowded it was. Definitely closer to 800 than 400 if max capacity is 800. Only complaint would be the complete lack of signage directing spectators to the game, especially for first timers. It was only made worse by all of the families going to Disney on Ice. We (along with several other people that were utterly confused) finally found our way to the entrance (behind construction fencing) after seeing some students walking in.

Sounds like an amazing day/trip. Are you allowed to pound those Heineys from your seat? This was a long time ago but when I saw Fulham take on Crystal Palace in the late 2000s at Craven Cottage it was not allowed. Was utterly shocked. Had to slam a bunch of beers at half while overlooking the Thames which led to a tardy return to my seat. Wasn’t received well by the locals.
