French plus three is enough for the A10....is that enough for the big dance?

EJ who?

I’ll eat crow, Billiken Roy was right, Hankton can’t play a lick of D tonight...

Great recall....bottom line=he and Platt recruited the talent level they were accustomed to at Army,.

I don’t understand why Drew Diener, a guard, is the appropriate comparison with Hankton, a forward.

Billiken Roy, I agree Willie Reed is an incredible athlete....I said Hankton has good athleticism, not incredible athleticism. My point was that he shouldn’t be written off as ineffective in his all-around game due to his body type. If I remember correctly, similar concerns were expressed on this board during Reeds recruitment.

He’s fundamentally sound and has good instincts and athleticism. Especially for a freshman. I suppose that’s why he’s getting minutes. Yeah, he’s skinny, but so was Willie Reed when Majerus snagged him.

Good to see SLU going nine deep in a close game. Wiley and Hankton help from long distance, and they’re both solid all-around players, too. Also good to see the 2-headed monster, JGood and French, will not be denied. Hard to believe they’re just sophomores.

Pistol will surely post but the answer is that Jankovic still has not committed anywhere, per Georgia Techs fan site 3 days ago, another place where he’s a top target. A European site calls him more of a wing/small forward.

Rhode Island and UMASS were each without a key injured player averaging double-digit points per game....hitting more accurately from long distance will be a key to beating those teams in the A10 tourney when they’re at full strength.

Great find although stumped that Alonzo Verge is ranked 15...a huge JUCO offensive stat leader in points and FT %

Thought I saw Wiley leaving the SLU bench for the locker room well before the game was over...hoping he just needed to use the bathroom.

Hargrove is more of a small forward.

The one thing Collins and Thatch have in common is that they’re more stat sheet stuffers vs bucket getters.

Cannot think of a single player Ford has recruited In his three years who has been a bust on the court. Think TFord will do just fine.
