almaman Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Could you give an example of something said about Jolly that can't/hasn't ever been said about a black player on this board? dumb white hillbilly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majerus mojo Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Try 500 posts strongly supporting Reed and Mitchell re the incident. I didn't know that. Curious. Please provide links to previous posts over the past 10 years which support your claim. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waldo027 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Obi Ikeakor and Horace Dixon qualified but didn't they both flunk out during the 06 fall semester? SLU has taken on plenty of guys with extremely questionable academics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Box and Won Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I didn't know that. Curious. Provide names of partial qualifier basketball players SLU accepted in the last 10 years. Thank you. I don't believe we've taken any in the last decade, but I don't think it's all that common of a situation. And the fact that we haven't had any recently (although I believe Justin Tatum was one) doesn't mean we wouldn't accept a partial qualifier should the situation arise. Many comparable schools do. Marquette had pretty good luck with one a few years back as I recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marquette had pretty good luck with one a few years back as I recall. Right. SLU does not let kids like that in anymore. They mostly cannot make it. Sure we have some easier courses for athletes but not outrageous joke classes like at, say, Mizzou (Biology for Non Science Majors). IMO Mo Alie Cox would not be admitted at SLU. He sat out a year at VCU before becoming academically eligible. VCU! And if you think being all conference scholar athlete means anything, wow, you are clueless. It sometimes is "for show". I know athletes personally that didn't even go to class but made "all conference scholar athlete". (VCU!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB73 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Have you ever stood up for an AA player this obstinately... Again, everybody knows that I was one of the strongest supporters of WR and KM re the incident. They were not treated fairly. I wrote numerous posts for months. Admit it. You are completely wrong.

CBFan Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 http://www.wilder.vcu.edu/spotlight/mo-alie-cox.html Earned his bachelor's in 3 years and will have 2 years to earn his master's. Outstanding story about Mo Alie-Cox excellent young man. Conklin and Cassity did that as well and Jordair Jett has said in an article that he was the first in his family to graduate college, that is what I enjoy most about college basketball.
