Correct me if I am wrong, but Ford saying if we should expect more commitments from the 2018 class, wouldn't that confirm we are going to have players leave!!!??? Gillman and Nuefield gone?

From the podcast for Bess- A "stat guy" Adonys- Ford says is his top 5 shooters he has ever had

Thought we promised Goodwin solid playing time from the start

Ty Graves?

Yes absolutely. I read an article on food rankings on places like yelp, where generally the top 10 or 15 restaurants are standouts, but it doesn't necessarily make the next 100 best lesser or better than others. We are also not fooling ourselves if we aren't excited about landing players in the top 100 either like Goodwin, lets be honest, it gives us a lot more hope when we see that number next to him. I am hoping players don't drop in ranking if they choose SLU like what happened to Adonys when he chose UCF

Anyone good with Psychology? If you asked me to guess, I would say him saying SLU first, heck even twice, taking a pause to think, then listing other schools is a really good sign. If SLU is the first school he thinks off, I think that's great.

haha maybe for hype, yes, But what I talked about him at UCF, he seems to be very impressive there as an underclassmen, which I talked about

I would tend to agree, but also there are many factors to disagree about. For one, Adonys is a top scorer from a fairly decent team at UCF, I feel can he only improve at the A10 and Ford. Bess came from one of the best programs in the nation with Michigan State, but stats don't look too well, largely due to injury and being on one of the most competitive rosters in the country, injury doesn't help that. I believe with certainty that Bess will have much better numbers next year. Foreman proved to do well against B10 talent at Rutgers and should do well again next year pending injury. Graves will be a great impact player who again we can't judge his performance at BC since there seemed to be something going on with him and the team or coach

I did some research which was difficult since he transferred, a lot of articles on him seemed to be deleted/ the links stopped working, even ESPN. From what I can understand, he committed to Miami at around a top 40, got his ranking dropped to around 80, then decided to stay home instead of Butler, which for some reason knocked him out of top 100 from ESPN, and then others followed. I guess I am only bringing this up since he seems to be a huge sleeper, and I think he might be our top scorer next year. Him and Bess are legitimate 4* who should have just as much potential as Goodwin and French. Ford is absolutely right when he says we have a top 10 class coming in if including the transfers

I am asking a legitimate question, don't get why people are being defensive. Is there a real answer why he went from top 50 his senior year to not top 100?

I asked if he had a huge falling out his senior year... He went from top 50 to not ranked. I am wondering what happned

I don't know if this was talked about but Adonys is listed on the SLUBillikens website to be ranked as high as 36 on ESPN 100 his SENIOR year. Yet Espn doesn't have him even nationally ranked, other than a 4* and other reports were that he was listed at 43 when he committed to Miami. Did he have a huge falling out his senior year?

Webster Groves beats Morgan Park 75-67. Courtney Ramey 26. Carte'Are Gordon 16. Ayo Dosunmu 21.

Can someone again give me a reason why Zeke should be on this new team we are going to have next year

So oddly we just gave an offer today to a Nigerian Center named Peace Ilegomah as of 2/3/2017, yet he is verbally committed to Pittsburg

So I've talked to some players and the consensus is that they have really high hopes for the next few years. They know they are going to be really good next year, I wouldn't be surprised if players like Leech feel the same. Thatch might grow to a 4* after AAU leaving all of our current recruits at least 4*.

Howard and him played together for Team USA last year. Howard reclassified in April last year. I guess just pointing out that his teammate reclassified late last year so it is possible, and Gordan coming here can be more likely. I hope he wants to since we might get more time out of him if he is trying to go pro early

You guys are going to hate me for this, but his buddy on the USA team Markus Howard reclassified to play for Marquette

Ah gotcha. I could understand since he wasn't warm to not put him in, but I would assume if we were in foul trouble he would go in?

Still can't believe we won a game in 2OT choosing to only play 6 players

I had my eye on Goodwin who seemed to be bored, but ultimately got really into it in 2OT. Is there a reason Zeke Moore didn't play?

Unfair to tatum, The top recruit over at Washington didn't turn them around. Wayy too much expectations on these guys

I think you're looking for something to be mad about, and you're being an ass if you think I meant Ford set those records. Maybe you're an ass AND unintelligent

Duke and Kentucky are showing to recruits (HOPEFULLY) that a star studded team does not equal results

Correct. Ford's team had 9 turnovers at GW and 17 against UMass
