Some of my favorite players were disrespectful trash talkers. My least favorite players are cheap shot artists -- guys who throw elbows above the shoulders, commit hard fouls after the player is airborne, etc. That kind of play can end an opponent's career. Some of my favorite SLU players were and are big trash talkers. Jordair Jett, Brian Conklin, Jordan Goodwin all talk(ed) a ton of trash on the court. slufanskip and hmart23 like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched the whole thing from 208 and again on DVR. I'm not defending him. I can't wait to play them again so we hopefully make him eat his words. He's got some moxie to drain a shot like that in our building. Kid is a baller. So to call him a thug for some trash talk is just overdone. Was Larry Bird a thug?

Goodwin flexes at opposing players after a big dunk. Trash talk is part of the game and most players, at least the really good ones, talk during games.

Told the media and the other team before tip he was only going to shoot left handed. He played 3 quarters left handed and ended with over 40 points. Guy is a freaking legend.

Seemed like there were lots of recruits at the game in the seats behind the Bills' bench. It looked like AB was sitting with them. I wish I knew who the recruits were but I don't know what they look like since I have not seen any of them play. A great atmosphere for them to see SLU and Chaifetz at our best (except for FT shooting). Speaking of Chaifetz, if any of you looked at the series of pictures from the game, which appeared in the online PD articles, Dr. C is referred to as "a fan" in one of the pics. Great job of editing, P-D ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile, Ford is 0-5 against ranked opponents since being here. It pains me to say this, but he could be Barry Odom on the hardwood. SLU comes within a tenth of a second of beating Dayton and someone is equating Ford to Barry Odom? Ford has the 300th least experienced team out of the 353 Division I teams...for decent chunks of the game freshman like Bell and Hargrove defending America NBA lotto pick. Other than their first game of the year, every single Dayton win up until this one was by double digits....their only losses were to two Top 25 teams, both in OT. SLU has a NET ranking of 54, in the dance conversation. This is arguably the best coaching job of any SLU coach in the past 40 years and he’s being labeled the next Barry Odom.

We can make the tournament this season no doubt, but imagine how good Ford's program is going to be next year. No reason for any single Billikens fan to question what Ford has built here.

It might have been my homerism coming through but I was pretty sure the guy threw his shoulder into Collins jaw. Im not upset about the refs missing/not calling it that’s a thought call to make but from my seats I thought it might have been a little dirty. I know this is a mighty hypocritical post because I consider the Conklin screen one of my favorite Billiken moments. I think my comment at the time was Yurimania just got Conklined.

I really don't care about trash talking it doesn't result in points for our opponent. In fact I like a bit of trash talking. Seriously I didn't notice.

WVBilliken Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I am a huge Ford fan from the day of the hire. I do not like second guessing but watching the last 6 seconds my immediate thought was how come we are not pressing the inbound pass. Dayton had an open floor to dribble and pass to the 3 point line. Just some token pressure may have put them 10 feet further out on that last shot. Been bothering me since Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
