The odds were very long that he would choose SLU over Coach K. i truly believe had tatum not been on that U18 world team that coach k got to coach and recruit him 24/7 for about 2 months and pressured tatum's peers to push him away from "little ole slu" tatum was picking the billikens. that said as has been said a million times had he come, we likely would be in the now or never last year of crewsplatt one year of tatum amazing play would not have been worth more crewsplatt.

Glorydays2013 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 The NCAA gets higher ratings than the NBA and Duke is one of the leaders in NCAA. I don’t blame him for going to Duke and appreciate him giving support to this new team. If Ford was here we definitely would have had him but not getting him was a huge catalyst to getting rid of Crews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistol Posted August 9, 2018 Author Share Posted August 9, 2018 James Bishop released his top 6, which is exactly as predicted: James Bouknight is releasing his top 5 tomorrow and SLU won't be on it. He's already said UConn and Miami will, and I'd expect Indiana and Seton Hall to claim two spots, with the last spot up for grabs between Providence, Maryland, Illinois, VT, Michigan, Oregon, and Wichita State.

Absolutely. Most of the guys releasing their lists so far aren't guys I would've expected to list SLU. Most of the guys I think we're more involved with either haven't released a list yet or haven't even given a timeline. Obviously we'll be watching closely for what Liddell says next week, but I'm also looking for guys like Myles Baker, Christian Braun, Chico Carter, Yuri Collins, Dashawn Davis, Jordan Dingle, DaJuan Gordon, DJ Horne, Gibson Jimerson, Ricky Lindo, BJ Mack, Julius Marble, Justin McKoy, Michael Moreno, Joshua Pierre-Louis, Antonio Reeves, Terrence Shannon, and Joe Toussaint, and maybe a few others. Some of these guys are late bloomers who are going to stretch it into the spring, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Rhoades appears to have gotten VCU back into the game when it comes to recruiting. Made the cut with James Bishop, Damir Bishop, McKinney, Wahab and Bacot. Now he just needs to close the deal on one or two of them. Pistol likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
