73Billiken

Great news.........let's fill up that roster with winners

It will be interesting how much influence Coach Schertz has on his former players coupled with SLU NIL $

Bruce Zhang now in the portal

For what it's worth----------------https://247sports.com/season/2024-basketball/transferportal/

Ezewiro into the portal to play for a 4th team?

John Calipari nearing agreement with Arkansas https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/john-calipari-nearing-agreement-with-arkansas-kentucky-coach-taking-over-razorbacks-is-imminent/

It's a shame that they could not be playing at Chaifetz but at least the game is in metro STL and able to get a pro-SLU crowd there.

It's a good day to be a Billiken

What? No 15 second weave before you start looking for shots?

He has certainly changed his game since his freshman year; congrats

Hargrove and Jimmerson look like they want to play on; Go Bills

Yes, I did watch him from the notorious section 111 (home of the guy that was thrown out of the arena). Ezewiro plays most of the game at the top of the key looking to distribute the ball. No danger of Holmes fouling out from there.

The lack of defense with this team unfortunately is a given for whatever reason, however why on earth did they not try to feed the post with Ezewiro and let him go one-on-one vs Holmes. The spin move that Brad put on Holmes was classic and would have put Holmes either playing with multiple fouls or on the bench being replaced with a less skilled center. Bruce Zhang & SVB don't have the moves yet that Ezewiro has. The shoot-out strategy with little to no defense against a team like Dayton was not going to lead to a good result.

Absolutely correct, send Davidson the bill for the Knox College expenses...........

Even if Rick Majerus came back this team is incapable of playing defense

You can't be serious. This is getting more than a little unhinged with what you are proposing...............

Although vs LaSalle; it's a win.

A pretty brutal article from the Post-Dispatch but unless they find lightning in a bottle it may be time to go.

So the Serbian kid plays 6 minutes at the end of the 1st half and gets 8 points, then sits for the rest of the game? It's mind boggling that he could not have substituted for some of All-Americans on the squad for a few more minutes and maybe have out-scored them.

Bad, just plain bad.......

If I was selling my products to my "Baltic" customers, I would certainly try to get it right................. I am sure that they are impressed.

Balkan.................not Baltic. Serbia is in the Balkan region of Europe.......the Baltic countries are Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

Đorđe Ćurčić is pronounced "George-jay Chur-chich" in Serbian; God knows how Guy Phillips will pronounce it.

Go to the games, beat the drums, chant to your heart's content, wave your banners and wear your scarfs and enjoy yourselves...but don't be delusional.

Getting an MLS franchise is great for STL However with that said, the MLS has a long way to go to compete on the world stage with American talent. At present any high profile foreign players in the MLS have been few and far between. Since 1990 the USMNT has a World Cup record of 6 wins, 16 losses and 8 draws; hardly a stellar performance. Yes in time it will get better but it's not like the rest of the world is sitting around waiting for the US to catch up. When an under-sized country like Croatia (under 4 million in population) can play an oversized role in the World Cup (3rd place in 1998, 2nd place 2018, 3rd place in 2022), the USMNT has been a joke. Christian Pulisic (US born with dual US and Croatian citizenship) is touted as one of the USMNT stars, He would not make the Croatian national team much less play................ For now the MLS is about 6th tier in global soccer.............so it's great to have STLCity but let's be realistic about where it is in the pecking order.
