If the staff was going to use a scholarship on a grad transfer guard, I'm glad they chose Lewis.  He wanted to come home and and understands how to play off the ball.  Can impact the game as a three point specialist even in limited minutes.

You’re missing the part where we still have 2 scholarships to go and as of right now no seniors next year.

If he's not a grad transfer I don't understand the pickup.

We usually agree but if a local shooter wants to come home and shoot... i don’t question it. I’ll take it

It’s an interesting deal. Good player, but I have no idea what his eligibility situation is. He didn’t finish his sitting out time at Nevada, so can he get out of sitting out any more time on account of Musselman leaving? Is there a chance he graduates early and counts as a grad transfer? Other players have announced they were entering the transfer portal, but he didn’t. Maybe he is a grad transfer. Anyway, maybe it’s a partial righting of one if the basketball doofus’s numerous screw-ups.

This is more of Travis playing the long game with St Louis recruiting. You bring mike Lewis home and you further align yourself with Jayson Tatum and the St Louis community. Staying home to play Billiken basketball is now a first thought for local talent instead of a second choice.

So looks like he played two and a half seasons at Duquesne.  So seems he starts playing second semester next year and has a year and a half eligibility????

 

If you play in one game you have used a years eligibity unless you get a medical redshirt. He can play second semester and use the rest of his eligibilty or sit out the year and play all of 2020.

It shouldn’t be hard to get him eligible immediately. Nice pickup.

I agree to an extent. I don’t want SLU to be the “I can always transfer back there” school either though.

Ford wasn’t around when Lewis committed Or he already did or was brand new. 

Yes Mike Lewis can get a waiver after a coaching change. It’s textbook waiver. However he would rather play conference then play a year instead of play a year then be done next year December
