I think he would have a role on this team moreso than any of the other transfers. But backing up Yuri probably doesn't compare to being the guy for semo. This is why a few people may be tired of how Travis uses his bench. Many people want to question the success some players have once they leave SLU, but there are some that move on that you wish they had stayed. Not everyone that transfers out was going to be a contributor down the road but man it seems like there’s always one or two you wish Travis had utilized more to keep them around. I’m just curious who on the current roster is the next victim… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dennis_w Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Which teams utilize the 10-13 players in a game? none that i have seen, games are short and winning is most important, noboby plays a bench player that is not as effective as as the top 7 or 8, it justs doesnt happen, players transfer for a lot of different reasons from all teams, slu had benefited from transfers in as much or more than transfers out. lets not let logic stope the ford hate train from rolling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gets stuck with one rotation, and one plan. If he could adapt a little bit, he could have Creighton type success. Unfortunately he is who he is and it’s NIT level coaching at best. It takes a special kind of DB to sit back and accept mediocrity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you insist on posting non-stop at least bring something to the table other than dump Ford. You disrupt the flow of threads that have nothing to do with your only subject matter. We get it. btw… we’re all frustrated with the coach. Some want him fired while others don’t. Then there are those of us who believe it’s a useless topic because it’s not going to happen. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but to hammer your opinion relentlessly is plain annoying. Be better. I’d actually like to hear what else you have to say. billikenbill, cgeldmacher, Billiken Rich and 1 other like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people are quiet, people unfortunately don’t notice. You can be quiet with your wallet, but you can be vocal online too. Dr Chaifetz has been vocal online lately. Something is happening.

If you’re going to post incessantly you need to pick up your game cuz it’s past getting old. And don’t start making stuff up.

ARon Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Nice interview of Tremaine Isabell by Martin Kilcoyne on the Scoops with Danny Mac podcast. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/scoops-with-danny-mac/id1361399351?i=1000603147139 Sounds like he's taking some time back in the States to heal up from some knee issues right now.

philliken Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 I hate to post this, but Carte’are got himself in some more trouble. I was wondering why he wasn’t in the lineup the last few games for Grambling. He and three football players ‘invaded’ a residence hall and beat two people with a pistol over some money dispute. I couldn’t find anything about him being suspended. Curious to see what will come if this. Kid could’ve made a new life for himself, but it seems he just can’t get out of his own way. https://hbcugameday.com/2023/03/07/grambling-state-athletes-arrested-accused-of-invading-dorm-with-gun/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
