billiken_roy Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 from a billikens.com perspective, probably the best part of this outstanding news is that might also force the 601 character to disappear permanently as he now looks even more stupid than before! congratulations to ruben!!!!!!! those that have not seen ruben are in for a treat imo.

HEY! I know you're trying to reach billiken_roy^2 levels of posting, but i don't think there's any need to resort to double posting. This upcoming season is looking sunnier than ever... maybe there's something to Majerus recruiting smart kids w/ character after all...

Box and Won Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I just remembered, I don't like Reuben sandwiches. Hopefully Cotto is better than Salami from "The White Shadow." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I share your enthusiasm. I can't wait to hear him in postgame interviews, either. He also very well might have the most deli-friendly name in basketball history. Our marketing department has to play that angle up. How 'bout a promotion with a local deli- Amighetti's or something like that. "Every time Ruben scores X points, half-priced ruebens the next day." Or maybe something like the old Chevy's promotion, with buy one get one free if the Bills score 70 and win, only with his name and namesake sandwich. I sure hope someone in the AD is reading. I'm giving you gold for nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianstl Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Congats Ruben. SS601 will be back under a different name. I am pretty sure he was on here under another name before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianstl Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Metz ?Not Metz, he would lick Rickma's dirty underwear. He wouldn't say anything bad about his recruits. I think it is someone else, but not sure on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVBilliken Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 What terrific news! With Cotto qualifying and high hopes for Willie Reed I am once again really optimistic about this team. We may be young but we have some talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billikan Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 What terrific news! With Cotto qualifying and high hopes for Willie Reed I am once again really optimistic about this team. We may be young but we have some talent. I agree 100%. I was pretty leery of this team if we did not have Cotto and Reed because it looked like we would be a little short on talent and very thin on the inside. If both are now qualified then with Tommie and Kevin, even if we don't go dancing, and I really hope we do for their sake, this should be a very interesting year watching all of these young kids learn and adapt to Rick's system. We will probably take our lumps early but it would be my hope that by the time we get into the conference season in February we will be a tough team to beat!

smitty Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Did anyone else hear Andy Strickland on Bernie and Randy's show this afternoon - his buzz segment? I caught the tail end as I got in the car but I could have sworn he said Cotto did NOT qualify and would probably be headed to JUCO. Please let me know if anyone heard this - it was probably about 5:20 or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please let me know if anyone heard this - it was probably about 5:20 or so. According to posts by Ruben's girlfriend and his best friend from Miami on his facebook page, he did qualify.

Here is what Ruben's girl posted earlier today: It's official...you did it....You can officially say that SLU's arena is yours!! Haha...I always believed in you and that you could get that score ) I would assume she knows his status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamjam Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Also heard Strickland's report this afternoon about Cotto and "maybe another player" not qualifying and going JUCO... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
