FromDaEastSide Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 and slubillikens.com Billikens to Host Final Four Participant Wichita State Dec. 1 Courtesy: Saint Louis Athletics Release: 06/20/2013 ST. LOUIS – Saint Louis men’s basketball will welcome 2013 Final Four participant Wichita State to Chaifetz Arena this year in the first game of a home-and-home series. The game will be played Sunday, Dec. 1, at a time to be determined. The Shockers advanced to the national semifinals of the NCAA Tournament before falling to eventual national champion Louisville. A member of the Missouri Valley Conference, Wichita State posted a 30-9 overall record a season ago. Earlier this month, it was announced that the Billikens will play Oral Roberts (Thursday, Nov. 21) and Bowling Green (Saturday, Nov. 23) at Chaifetz Arena as part of the Cancun Challenge. Also, SLU will face Wisconsin Tuesday, Nov. 26, in Cancun and either Old Dominion or West Virginia the following day. The complete 2013-14 men’s basketball schedule will be released later this summer http://www.slubillikens.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=27200&ATCLID=208469760 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bay Area Billiken Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 SLU v. Wichita State in a home and home is a very good move for both sides IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SShoe Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 This is a great addition to the schedule and the type of game I hope we could get more regularly with sustained success. I'd rather play the WSUs of the world than the Washingtons or Georgias (two of the more recent BCSers who schedule home and homes with us).

Westy03 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 This is a great addition to the schedule and the type of game I hope we could get more regularly with sustained success. I'd rather play the WSUs of the world than the Washingtons or Georgias (two of the more recent BCSers who schedule home and homes with us). I agree. Also, it seems that we are recruiting the West Coast a lot harder than we have in the past so I would like to get a home and home with a few teams out there. Maybe a Gonzaga, UNLV, SDSU, or a Stanford would work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOSLU68 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 RM always tried to get games near home for long distance recruits-don't be surprised if if RA, Lancona and others get games near home as did KM and Conklin. Our staff is pretty aware how that is special for all the players. Maybe the poor loss in California on our way home from the tournament helped the TL recruitment-you never know about PR sometimes kids see an opportunity to help and fit in where we saw a loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kshoe Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 TL wanted to go to SLU because we lost to Loyola?????????????????????? what? Just roll with it. I attribute about 51% of TL's decision to the LMU loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOSLU68 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Was Tarkanian good for UNLV basketball? Or was he the epitomy of what was wrong with UNLV? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JettFlight5 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Was Tarkanian good for UNLV basketball? Or was he the epitomy of what was wrong with UNLV? Both. I'm a big Tark fan (bet you'd have never guessed that), but his methods were a little bit off the beaten path. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littlebill Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 TL wanted to go to SLU because we lost to Loyola?????????????????????? what? 50% because of Loyola and 50% because of our UW loss. So.. 50/50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Box and Won Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Just roll with it. I attribute about 51% of TL's decision to the LMU loss. Oddly enough, the other 49% came from our two most recent losses to Rhode Island. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SShoe Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Me too. Unfortunately, I remember them beating us once during the Sodieball era. Easily one of the worst games I've sat through. Not only did we lose, but we got run out of the gym. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billiken Rich Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I like having the SEMO game. I expect Rich to be decked out in a hawk costume. They were Indians when I went there, not that I was a fan.
