Slu let the dogs out?

Haven't really been paying attention but how has Santo-Silva already been deemed immediately eligible? Note to self: work on reading comprehension <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">VCU grad transfer Marcus Santos-Silva has committed to Texas Tech, per his Twitter page.<br><br>Immediately eligible.<br><br>Significant Big 12 news.</p>&mdash; Jon Rothstein (@JonRothstein) <a href="https://twitter.com/JonRothstein/status/1255554097509535747?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 29, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

This. A million times. There is no greater marketing tool for a university than a successful athletic program. Strongly considered applying to St. John's University solely because I loved watching their 1999 Elite 8 team with Ron Artest, Lavor Postell, Eric Barkley, and Jarvis at the helm. Thought it would have been pretty cool rooting them on at MSG every year. Knew nothing else about the school other than it was in Queens. Perhaps not the best example since I didn't end up going there but If not for their basketball team it would not have even been a consideration.

The one thing that really bothers me about the NBA, and it shouldn't, is that they play music during live play. Reminds me of Ambush games at Kiel Center.

If you guys want to start calling me The One Jr. I won't stop you...

I don't want to get banned from this website

Way to ruin our Friday! Why don't you get back to your online Normal Brand shopping spree.

That can't be a good sign for us.

I'm pretty sure the regulars still puff cigs inside too.

Ha PowerMizzou. Gabe DeArmond might be the biggest d bag in all of Missouri. Can your friend send the responses to the post? I think we could all start our weekend off with some laughs. Wait today is Friday, right? I guess if I don't know the answer then every day is the weekend...

Ha I went to a midnight showing of Big Lebowski at Moolah as well. I don't recall the exact year but 2008 makes sense since that would be the 10 year anniversary. Pounded white Russians the entire movie.

I've never experienced priapism before but that is about to change.

Yes, Kriegers! Thank you. Good to know they're open for pick up. I'll have to place an order this week.

Exactly. Before Big Bear it was a local chain bar and grill and it's really bothering me that I can't remember the name right now.

There's a spot on Manchester in Glendale that also seems cursed. It was a bank, Super Smokers, Boston Market, Psghettis, and now I'm pretty sure it's some same day surgery center ( @Box and Won?)

Nothing seems to last in that spot on Sutton.

My order of preference would be Okoro, Russell, Stockard. Wow, just 2 weeks ago I was praying for Stockard to transfer. Anyone that chooses Stockard over Okoro needs their head examined. With Okoro taking the next year to recover from health issues and Linssen filling our need for an immediate big, the answer is quite clear. Senior class of Okoro, Collins, and Hargrove has the blood flowing.

This. I was surprised to see his 3pt% was 37%. Granted he only averaged 1 3pt attempt per game but I wouldn't mind a few more each game.

Hope he's wrong. I'm guessing no one else will be transferring this year: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">The mottto under Travis Ford has been “never stop recruiting”. Positive relationships go along way. It’s not surprising to see that SLU reached out, but I doubt it goes very far. <a href="https://t.co/whLjtBg258">https://t.co/whLjtBg258</a></p>&mdash; Carter Chapley (@ChapleyMedia) <a href="https://twitter.com/ChapleyMedia/status/1252714781695492106?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 21, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Little bit of both.</p>&mdash; Carter Chapley (@ChapleyMedia) <a href="https://twitter.com/ChapleyMedia/status/1252716901685514247?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 21, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Look, I get cafeteria Catholicism. I just find it amusing.

Something I''ve learned the past week and found amusing is that a few of the practicing Christians wishing everyone a Happy Easter on this board are also Trump defenders. No one, and I mean NO ONE, embodies the spirit if JC better than a self-absorbed serial adulterer who raw dogged porn stars, stole from charities, defrauded students, bragged (on 9/11) about having the tallest building in lower Manhattan as a result of the WTCs collapsing (wasn't even true), tried to ban entire religions, played basketball with paper towels as thousands of Puerto Ricans died, and had the orphaned baby of mass shooting victims brought back to the hospital so he could get a photo op with him (since no other survivor would do it).

Not sure. My friend just said he had heard Okoro wanted to leave Oregon and come play for SLU. He was at least right about the first part... @TheOne???

What does Illinois' bigs situation look like over the next 3 years? I'd imagine that is a logical landing spot for him if he really does want to be closer to home. But I really hope TF and Co. are going full court press on this kid.

For sure, I"m excited to see what he can do. I still hope there is a way we can land Okoro without it hurting our chances at a deep run this upcoming year
