tr_hoops Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 still smarting from thompson spurning siu i see. you got to let it go. Two quick things Thompson was never offered by Southern Illinois and he doesn't fit their system. They play an up tempo tough defensive style of game. Anyone who saw Thompson play with the Warriors this summer or the Eagles last summer know that he cannot play that style of game. But with work I think he will be an NBA player. And you can quote me on that. One last question, "Where is Thompson ranked in the top 100?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, this is the biggest bunch of bologna I have read for sometime. SIU-C was all over Thompson, and I remember the rationalization on their board when he chose SLU over Carbondale and a bunch of BCS schools.

moytoy12 Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 [sIU] play an up tempo tough defensive style of game. Really? Because some might confuse it for a grind-it-out foul/mug fest. I don't think "up tempo" and SIU-C basketball will often be intertwined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Box and Won Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 BTW, Sampson (supposedly) recruited Roth to IU so that Zeller would come with him. Well, Zeller just committed to UNC. I wonder how solid Roth's commitment is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
