SLUperman Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Not any major upsets yet (I feel like it was a 50/50 split on Murray St/Marq)... Maybe that March magic caught a late flight with a Friday night arrival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've enjoyed the day fair amount of close games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiseOfTheBillikens Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Games have been called tight so far imo. I pray French can stay out of foul trouble. Don't think we are going to be happy with the way the game is reffed tomorrow. BigMouthBilliken likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arizona St, Oregon, Liberty, UC Irvine, and SLU will all win I hope so. Day one was possibly the most boring March Madness 1st round day In recent memory. No upsets really, no buzzer beaters...etc. Belmont and NM State should have provided highlights but both had mental breakdowns. Of course SLU winning is the most important.

slu72 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Murray St taking down our ugly cousin from Milwaukee was sweet. They destroyed them. Hard to believe Morant went unnoticed by the bigs in HS. Although, a USC friend of mine said his academics were so bad that he couldn't get into either USC or Clemson. I coughed a little on that one. Still, SC public school academics are pretty bad, so who knows if that's true. TaLBErt likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the first time I've heard that from USC fans. Mostly it's about FB players that somehow ended up at Clemson, which has better academics. I classify USC as a wannabe school, but they don't know what they wannabe. Although, they did have a final 4 run two years ago, so they got that going for them. And their women's team is usually really good. But it's football that breaks their hearts, which given their past history of being so so doesn't make sense. They do sound like a lot like Mizzery, don't they? Edited March 22, 2019 by slu72 misspelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are very few elite talents going unnoticed these days by high majors. Almost all of the recent misses have been due to growth spurts, from Steph Curry to Gordon Hayward to Ja Morant.

I get that, but the skill set had to be pretty impressive for a HS kid. Also, he played on the same AAU team as Williamson, so he definitely got serious exposure. Not arguing w/ you about recruiting 3 Star for you know way more than I do, just amazed how this kid has suddenly exploded. One would think a coach would have looked at him and said we can bulk him up. Granted, they have no fix for being 6'0" but there are a lot of good players at 6' or below.

What makes Morant special is his effectiveness at finishing at the basket. Morant couldn't do the things at 6'0 that he does at 6'3. Once he became an unstoppable driver, that took his passing to another level. He's literally not the same player he was as a rising senior.

slu72 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Watching Iowa v UC. Man, wish Cook was a GT. One thing he plays right where French does. He starts to back in the a step back and a little soft touch 7-8 ft one hand jumper. French should work on that move. It would certainly change the book on how to play him.
