It doesn't look like it can happen and maybe it wouldn't be a good thing if it did but If Travis can get Gordon anything is possible....

He only came to visit both places out of courtesy to the two teams. Jeter was the one who was jerking everybody around. He was trying to leverage the Giants and Cards to make NY give up more - failed because apparently it was common knowledge in the business that he only wanted to go to NY or stay in Miami. So, why did the SF and StL keep trying - they were being danced around by Jeter by him saying that Stanton never told him that he only would go to NY or else he would stay in Miami. They believed him and ultimately they got their man at a cheaper price so maybe the Cards knew they could beat up on Jeter by telling him that nobody will deal with you because they know you can not be trusted. The same probably was the situation with SF. Jeter screwed himself on that deal and ultimately got his pocket picked by 3 teams. As far as Ramey goes, Ford will not waste his time with him if he has already been told that the kid is not interested in us. By they way he got Gordon because of the girlfriend. Without her it may not have happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiseAndGrind Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 So it looks like Rashad and Luis committed to SLU in late April last year. I'm guessing that is about the time we will see any further recruiting/transfer moves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can stretch well into May and sometimes even into June - especially with transfers. I seem to recall Ash Yacoubou committing in early June.

The actual spring signing period is April 11 to May 16. After that the players would sign a financial aid letter rather than a LOI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Henriquez committed right before I left on the trip, and Bess was in the process of deciding. I also recall excitedly telling one of the other SLU fans on the tour that Brett Jolly was transferring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Santos committed on April 21 and Anthony committed on May 17. Lot of potential time remaining before we have a full picture of what the 2018-2019 roster will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early May 2016 was busy: Foreman committed on May 2, then Jalen Johnson on the 4th, and Henriquez committed on May 6. Bess didn't commit until June 2. Goodwin committed August 12, and then French on October 24th. Graves was a mid-year guy, so his commitment was December 29, 2016. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLURadioBoy Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 A couple of tidbits about SLU on Frank's show today. -He said he's reading between the lines, but he doesn't think SLU is recruiting Mark Smith that hard right now. -He said they love Yuri Collins and he thinks he's on the cusp of committing. -He's also not sure they will bring on Larry Austin either. -Ford is looking forward to putting Gordon and French on the court together. -Goodwin's dad told Frank that Jordan is working to get better every day and wants to take SLU to the tournament next year.
