Pistol Posted November 8, 2016 Author Share Posted November 8, 2016 By the way, here's the breakdown between interest and actual offers for Stewart, since he doesn't differentiate in his tweet: Offers: SLU, GW, St. Bonaventure, Providence, Syracuse, Wake Forest, Florida, Tennessee, Buffalo, Niagara. Interest: Georgetown, Duke, UNC, Virginia, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Arizona, Stanford, Tulane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetorch Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Vashon defeated #2 in the country Wheeler tonight. 17 points for Mario Mckinney in the win earned offers today from K St, Auburn, DePaul and SLU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiseAndGrind Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 McKinney is going to play with the Eagles this year. Gotta be good for SLU right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLU_Nick Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Meh, sounds like Dwayne Polk. Pass. That is, unless VTIME thinks he is a good fit, then I will reconsider. #LeonPowell4Prez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably unfair to him. I would have loved to have had Jimmy though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billiken_roy Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Here's hoping SLU is utilizing their previous hall of fame player connections (Justin Love is A Belleville West assistant coach and Tommie Liddell is his cousin) recruit sophomore EJ Liddell at Belleville West. EJ continues to progress and has to be one of the top area sophomores in the Metro St Louis area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 First post is updated with the 2019 offer list. Interest list will be right below it when I get around to it. Same comments as on the other two: content and format remain in progress, all names are those that have been confirmed as having offer/interest, any recruiting tips welcome. I agree that E.J. Liddell needs to be offered by SLU ASAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slufanskip Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 I guess that confirms offer rather than just interest at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLURadioBoy Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 McKinney and Liddell are both playing for the Eagles this summer. I would think that shouldn't hurt our chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistol Posted December 28, 2016 Author Share Posted December 28, 2016 I added Liddell to the offer list; thanks to TheChosenOne for pointing out that video. As for interest, I've got a list of 2019 players I'm following recruiting-wise at this point, but have yet to confirm SLU interest. It doesn't appear to be as deep or talented as the 2018 class locally, but when you look at the Eagles and use a few-hour radius outside of STL, you get guys like Marcedus Leech at Poplar Bluff, Francis Okoro in Normal, James Wiseman in Nashville, and a few others. McKinney and Liddell are the early top guys locally, so I'm glad we've offered both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 We offered a 6-8 PF from Bishop Loughlin in Brooklyn, Richard Springs. Profile up on the 2019 Offer list later this afternoon. Edit: Profile up, but it's thin. There isn't a lot of info out there yet for this kid. Loughlin just beat Pius VI (VA) in the Slam Dunk to the Beach tournament in Delaware this week, and Springs had 10 points and 9 rebounds in that game. I'm assuming SLU and St. Bonaventure were in attendance, because both offered shortly after. His team is tough, with Keith Williams (2017, Cincinnati) and Markquis Nowell (2018), along with a few other possible D-I recruits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glorydays2013 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 Curious why Marcedus leech doesnt have an offer yet, What are the AAU teams for those you listed Pistol? I guess it would only matter if they were Eagles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francis Okoro (Normal Community West, BBE) While I think everyone is expecting 2018-19 to really be our breakout year, I think next year it is incredibly important to at least contend for a tourney berth. We need to show recruits that the process is working. I think Ford and Tate will only become even more successful recruiting with on court success (yes, not a groundbreaking assumption, but important regardless).
