JettFlight5 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Not likely. Stamos only has a Kevin Bacon number of 2. Bacon is clearly not an insider. John Stamos was in Private Parts (1997) with Steven Gilborn was in Enormous Changes at the Last Minute (1983) with Kevin Bacon But can he qualify as a moron?

almaman Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Well, he was in this movie. http://www.youtube.com/embed/q7vtWB4owdE?start=17&end=24 If there is a more seminal movie in American cinema show me. and I don't mean in anyway in terms of quality. But think back old timers when you walked out of that movie when first run like it or not, you could say you'd never seen anything like that before with no hyperbole. Now half movies out there are derived from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonwich Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I can remember exactly when and where I saw that movie: My senior year, living in Lewis Hall, and me and my 6-years-older-than-me girlfriend drove out to the Northwest Plaza Cine for opening night. And we knew that we'd just seen one of the funniest movies ever made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we knew that we'd just seen one of the funniest movies ever made. Ive never met a male who doesnt think its funny. I have met a lot of females who dont think its veryfunny. It a movie that will be funny 30 years from now. Doesnt matter if you are 13 or 93. Its also one of the more quoted movie. Plus it shows boobies.

Billikenboy Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Sorry for the excited outlook on RA but unlike most of you on this board I have been watching him for awhile now way before SLU ever offered. The LBJ description is not a far cry from where he is headed. His quickness for his size is what I find amazing. Best of all is he is a fast learner who improves everytime you see him play. Keep an eye on him because Crews and staff know exactly what they got. RA has handed every 5-Star player he has faced their head. I personally believe that as subjective as that rating is RA is a 5-star player who did not make the grade because he played in Buffalo and only hit the rating system in June of 2011. His AAU track record is what got him to South Kent School and not to mention a little delay in getting him ncaa qualified. The rest is history. NBA?...just watch! If you think he is just a 4 then you are in for a surprise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquinas Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 Is this cool aide or is this real? I love your comments and the highlight videos on Tanner. As others have stated he looks like a more athletic version of Cody. I think he will play right away, in part because of his skill set and in part because of the offensive hole that Cody left behind. He also fits our system like a glove. We should just keep in mind that Tanner is a rookie who has been playing against smaller and slower competition - Though your comments about him against top high school players is very encouraging. To succeed, he will not just need his offensive skills, but need to learn where to be on the floor and anticipate what is going to happen next, especially when playing defense. Just a hair late, a little confused or a little fatigued and you pick up a foul. One foul quickly becomes 2 and you are watching the rest of the first half from the bench. Maybe you have seen a lot of his defensive play and think he will be good from the start and if that is true… Awesome!!! I am really looking forward to both of these new big men as I think we are going to love watching them play Billiken basketball for years. It’s a great time to be a Billiken fan!

If you think he is just a 4 then you are in for a surprise. You've obviously seen more than most of us ..... However, To play the 3, he'll have to guard the 3. If he has feet quick enough to do that he is an absolute NBA player regardless of skill, as it's generally about athleticism. His ball handling isn't great. It may be great for a 6'9" 240 lb player but in the A10 he'd be guarding and playing against 6'4" 200 pound guys that he won't beat off the dribble. He looks a little uneasy putting the ball on the floor going to the right. We'll see. I am extremely excited to have him and think he'll be very good whether he's ever able to play the 3 or not.

If you're playing the 3 and not guarding either the 1, 2, or 3 ... there would have to be someone more capable at the 4 or 5 on the floor. I doubt that happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnkielBreakers Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I am really impressed with both recruits. High athletiscm, which is something our front court has needed since WR departed. However, from the video I have seen, I would be surprised if either of these guys are taller than 6'7". That really isn't a bad thing, they do not need to be 6'9" to compete in the A10 with our system and guard play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slu72 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I'm going on record to say Crawford may be our next DE. DE came in unheralded, as is MC, and look what he's become. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moytoy12 Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 So then who will? If you're playing the 3 and not guarding either the 1, 2, or 3 ... there would have to be someone more capable at the 4 or 5 on the floor. I doubt that happens grady might have a chance of guarding a 3, but playing a 4 at the other end. And if we end up with some 6'6"-6'7" tweeners, it could happen there as well. Not likely, but not out of the realm of possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
