brianstl Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 It seems from this link Watson from the PD thinks he will end up at Mizzou. doyle: i really enjoy your chats. do the tigers have any chance to get demarcus cousins(the power forward out of alabama)? also what about griffey and dixon? now a football question,any word on will compton? thank you & happy new year. Graham Watson: Dixon, I think, is a sure thing. And Griffey is a near sure thing. Cousins could be interesting. I'm not sure he ends up at Mizzou instead of UAB, but I think it will be between those two schools. No word on Will Compton yet. Tyler is visiting Illinois this weekend.

Majerus Magic Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 It's far from a sure thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianstl Posted January 4, 2008 Author Share Posted January 4, 2008 It's far from a sure thing.I agree with you. I almost hope that the IllIni and Mizzou fans both convince themselves that he is a sure thing for them, just like they did with Suggs. He would probably end up at KU then. I hope we get him, but I am not going to hold my breath. If we don't get him we will still be fine. I have that kind of faith in Rick.

thetorch Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Speaking of Suggs....how's his senior season shaping up?Washington is 7-1 Suggs is averaging over 20 ppg with 9 boards and 3 blocks. Washington's only loss is to CBC. His next marquee matchup will be on Jan 30 when he plays at Lafayette and then plays St Charles West at home on Feb 8.

Majerus Magic Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 What do you mean? I mean most of his recruitment in the past was based off of potential but now he is showing what all the hype was about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange Julius Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I mean most of his recruitment in the past was based off of potential but now he is showing what all the hype was about. Or maybe he is finally getting a chance to show St. Louis what the national scene has known all along! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL Hoops Insider Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Or maybe he is finally getting a chance to show St. Louis what the national scene has known all along! In your opinion, who/what was stopping him from getting the chance in previous years? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange Julius Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 In your opinion, who/what was stopping him from getting the chance in previous years? Understanding the amount of latitude some players have within the coach's instructions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
