DeSmetBilliken Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Matt Dickey was the player for UNC-Asheville( think that's right) who was said to be a player for SLU in a game photo last year. The caption said something like "Matt Dickey of SLU goes after a rebound against a player for UGA." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basketbill Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 We need to add Paul's Brother or cousin Mark Eckerle who was the guy who according to the Bellville paper played in our last game. This might explain that 13th schollie.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The caption said something like "Matt Dickey of SLU goes after a rebound against a player for UGA." And it wasn't some random website that had the photo and caption. It was the Post Dispatch / STLtoday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pelican Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Found this website by mistake,was looking for pelicans. Okay please clue me in on the joke Matt Dickey approved,was he the announcer? Matt Dickey is the most famous Billiken of all-time who never put on a jersey. Junior guard for UNCA and wears #2. Bill Johnson is the play-by-play dude from the U of P game. He is notorious for his ramblings between breaks and forgets to turn off the mic. He coined the new mascot - The Pelican. He is soon to be a Pelican HOFer.

bonwich Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 We need to add Paul's Brother or cousin Mark Eckerle who was the guy who according to the Bellville paper played in our last game.

ACE Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 They showed this on SportsCenter last night. BillikenNation discovered Matt Dickey long before the rest of the nation did. Now he's a superstar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonwich Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 And it wasn't some random website that had the photo and caption. It was the Post Dispatch / STLtoday. Usually forgotten in this story is that the photo was the official game photo released by Georgia State (or whoever we were playing that night) very late in the news cycle. Graphics (non-sports) editor looks for photo, finds the "official" one, and posts it before any of the grown-ups see it. Roy's favorite online sports editor sees it very early the next morning and requires our portable defibrillator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
