Wonderful article! There is one comment under this article, "Team with strong interior players. That's who is going to beat SLU.". I kind of agreed though. Any thoughts?
Yeah, it seems like a team who can control the boards and hope for a bad shooting night from SLU might have a shot. Very, very interested to see what Brad Stevens has in store if we get Butler-SLU tomorrow. Saint Louis is definitely the better team, but any Brad Stevens squad won't be easy to beat three times in one year. His game plan will probably reveal a lot about what teams will try to do against SLU in the tourney. Really wish I was up in Brooklyn for today and tomorrow's games...

Hey guys, we published a piece today on Jim Crews and Saint Louis that I thought you all might enjoy. I've been a big fan of the team all year (here's my evidence, from back in October), and I was real happy when I got to speak to Coach Crews and write this story. Sorry for the self-site-promotion, but you've all got one of the best sports stories of the year, and I thought you might like to check out our take on it.

Appreciate the chance to post this.

Congrats, guys! Happy to have called this one, but I think the last bit of 'under-the-radar' Saint Louis had going for them is now gone. Lot of people are thinking Final Four for this team...
