Slu let the dogs out? Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Will the adult beverage stands be open for Billiken Madness? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bauman Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 I'm glad to see you have your priorities in order. Certainly the ability to buy a beer tops being able to see, for the first time, a team that might be the best one at SLU since the days of Eddie Hickey!

NashvilleBilliken Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Does anybody know if it will be streamed? If there are no plans, I'm sure that there are several of us MBM's who would happily make a donation to anybody willing to stream through Facebook Live or some other service....

DoctorB Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Regarding "Conklin summers" -- (2 actually): I suggest everyone keep an eye on Santos: an absolute beast who has been really impressive in practices... clearly the overlooked gem among the new players who will get minutes this year. moytoy12, slufanskip, TheDude and 1 other like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on nothing other than a hunch (and the work he has put in), I've long suspected that Santos is going to have a really strong year.

Sweet....thanks for the update. One would think the infrastructure is in place, so it should be a pretty cheap way to showcase the program. Really hope it comes to fruition.

Hey Doc just for fun, because as Alan Iverson said were talking about Practice, how do you see the front court rotation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also want to make sure as many people come to the event as possible. Streaming could also hurt attendance although it would probably be minimal RiseOfTheBillikens likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thought is that if you are die hard enough to care about a midnight madness event, you will do what you can to show up in person. I think the only people who would watch online are those who couldn't make it anyway....plus or minus a handful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a student is on campus and interested enough to stream the event then i have to believe they’d just show up. As Nash said, I think you’re only impacting a handful of ppl that would show up without a live stream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon-Balls Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 SLU students are notorious for being pretty apathetic about big events like this, but hopefully Greek life makes a good showing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
