Almost a good finish. It looked like Wichita State was going to run away with it (27 point lead halfway through the 3rd), but the Billikens fought back. If they could have sunk a 3 pointer in the last 9 seconds, they would have tied it, but they couldn’t get off the shot. Billikens lose 77-74, now 3-10 on the year. Peyton Kennedy had 25 points on 9-16 shooting (including 4-8 from 3pt range). Julia Martinez was all over the court, 20 pts, led in rebounds with 12, led in assists with 6, led in steals with 7. Kennedy Calhoun had 10 pts. If they could play an entire game like they did the second half…. Oh well.
This was a game where we actually played to our potential, but our potential is still very limited. I honestly think we should have won, but we made one too many unforced errors.

Doh! I thought he was deceased. Apparently he's still kicking.........
You might have been thinking of Harry Dean Stanton, often compared to M Emmett Walsh in terms of popularity and types of roles. I think Roger Ebert once said that if either actor was in a movie, it was a worth seeing, even if it wasn't great.

No it won’t.
If we're head and shoulders above the rest of the conference in NET it will.

To be fair, Butler was middling that year.

The goal has always been to win the regular season title. That will get us an at large if we don’t win the tournament.
With the way the rest of the Conference looks, that might be a realistic goal.

I love what Yuri is doing. Assists means points. Most points still wins. But put it into a different context.
Who is the career leader in blocked shots? Does anyone care?Gilyard is the career leader in steals. Has Richmond profited from this?
it’s a short term attention grabber that has very little lasting effect.
Again, it's fun and, if you're a stat head who likes trivia, then it's really cool. I don't expect it to have long lasting implications, but it might boost our recruiting power for a year or two and having an NCAA individual career record for SLU is cool.

Does the Yuri assist total watch really translate into us being a better team? Is there any correlation at all? At this point it just appears to be an individual accolade not something that is raising the play of the entire team. We’re an under achieving team.
It's fun and notable. Yuri has the potential to be the all-time NCAA assists leader if he chooses to stay another year AND has the chance to do it with SLU. I'd say considering SLU doesn't currently hold a positive NCAA record, this is worth tracking. Stop being a negative Neville.

I know screaming has been Travis’s M.O. his entire career, but if your players don’t respond to it, you need to adapt, or recruit different players.
That won't change, lol. I agree it's ineffective for some, but the man seems inflexible.

I’d rather watch the Iona game again than listen to one James Taylor song. Less depressing.
Amen to that, James Taylor is always grating to me.

Typical SLU, need to win the a10 tourney now to get to the dance. Too weak of a schedule to lose games like this
You call yourself Big Mouth for a reason, I guess.

Unlikely, but who knows.
He's Rwandan, I looked it up on Iona's AD site. Just amusing to me.

Only one foul on Shema.
As a Jew, someone having this name is amusing to me, is he Jewish?
E: He is Rwandan.

Is Teddy Atlas doing the color commentary?
I'm not 100% sure lol, just New Yahk sounding

We're fine, but this is frustrating.

These announcers are...something

Jr. Joseph with 2 fouls already helps a lot.

The color guy makes me think of Jon Voight

Just curious, does anyone know of any other schools that might want to join the A10? Not what schools we want to join, or what schools we want kicked out of the A10, but institutions that want to come on in.
I feel like the MVC will have some ripe candidates in the next few years like how LUC made the jump.

instead they have sat at the end of the bench and not had much opportunity.
Outside of blowouts, when would we have used them when we have good depth?

If Yuri Collins stays for his fifth year in Saint Louis next season we will we be one of if not the hottest transfer portal destinations in the country for anyone that isn't a point guard.
What happens to your profile pic when Yuri is gone after graduating/eligibility runs out? Are you going to keep it? I've always been curious.
