WVBilliken Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 The spring signing period runs from April 16th through May 21, 2008. SLU has two scholarships open. I assume one is being held for Harrelson. I don't hear much about what might be done with the other open spot. Does anyone expect a signing this week?

jimbofive Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 The spring signing period runs from April 16th through May 21, 2008. SLU has two scholarships open. I assume one is being held for Harrelson. I don't hear much about what might be done with the other open spot. Does anyone expect a signing this week? There's the Mbakwe kid from Marquette. And that PG from Alabama, I think. I've also been talking about coming in to provide some experience off the bench at the 3. I'm a rare player. I've got length, toughness, and I can finish below the rim. I'm Kyle Cassity 7 years from now, w/ his basketball skills from 4 years ago. I'm not expected to come in and log major minutes, or be a program changer, but I'll kick in a wide open lay-up or fifteen-footer now and then, and I can be counted on to shoot a pretty steady 57% from the FT line. I really shine on defense, though; I play "Vitruvian Man" in the middle in zone or man defenses and really clog things up for the other team. I'm really good at sending bad free throw shooters to the line. Almost too good... If Harrellson or Mbakwe end up looking elsewhere, I wouldn't be surprised to see Majerus offer me. I don't know, I'd say like 50/50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BillikenReport Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Kyle Cassity and Ruben Cotto will sign this week. The staff has been out recruiting a lot of kids. Obviously Harrellson is one. Chase Robinson was another, though I doubt they really go after another guard. - Nate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Washington Generals have an opening right now no need to wait for RM's decision.. I'll be your agent.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Nate, any word on Cotto's ACT? Wasn't he going to take it earlier this month? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BillikenReport Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Nate, any word on Cotto's ACT? Wasn't he going to take it earlier this month? He took it on Saturday. He'll find out how he did in the next week or so, I think. I don't know how long it takes to get the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satrap Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 He took it on Saturday....... I don't know how long it takes to get the results. If he did well, you should know pretty soon. Poorly and it takes a lot longer. One of the mysteries of test scoring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info This day in age, you'd think they could put it into the computer and get the results immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicCityBilliken Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Thanks for the info This day in age, you'd think they could put it into the computer and get the results immediately. When I took my license exam for social work about 15 years ago I took it on the computer and I received my score immediately. With a score sheet it takes longer. When my son took the ACT last fall, I think had the score in about 3 weeks. Also, he also took the test again last Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
