I heard Roy Schmidt just tweeted that Tilmon isn't going anywhere, but Illinois. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're missing their point regarding how wrong Schmidt was regarding SLU's not being in the driver's seat for Goodwin. They're insinuating that he isn't as plugged in as he lets on. I'm not holding my breath on Tilmon; I trust Coach Ford to get some quality players and/or develop the players on the roster such that contention for the top of the A-10 and the Tournament are likely in 2018.

FromDaEastSide Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 JG was in on 101's Fast Lane today and asked what were his other top choices besides SLU. Northwestern and Mizzou Still trolling the Illini faithful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll be all right. He's a kid. You only get to go through high school once. Playing sports tends to keep kids motivated and out of trouble. I'd be fine if he also ran track or played baseball in the spring, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmbilliken Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Goodwin had a great game last night. 4 catches, two touchdowns in the first half. Sounds like they sat the first string in the second half in a romp over Collinsville. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billikenbooster Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 dont like the idea of football DBs going after JG knees to tackle him....hope he sits the rest of football season. mhg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almaman Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Would be bizarro if he goes all metro or POY in football and then not play in college. I hope he's way into his commitment to us. I would fear him starring and rethinking decision to not play football more than that he would get injured, which is of course a fear too. Wish Ford could just tell him not to.

kmbilliken Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 He is a good football player, but he is a great basketball player. He wants to play with his buddies and win a state championship in football too which they have a legitimate shot at. Althoff is a small school. A player his caliber not playing is a big hit. I think his competitive nature won't let him cheer from the sidelines if he can be in there helping. That's a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
