They’re discussing Stockard.

[Slu let the dogs out?]

Hope he's wrong. I'm guessing no one else will be transferring this year:

Billiken_roy unless I miss understood, coach was talking about Stockard from Kansas state not Phillip Russell.

Thanks coach always appreciate the info. If nothing else it’s good to stay on the look out for guys just in case you have a surprise departure. Do you know where he stands academically? Could he graduate over the summer and be a graduate transfer? That is assuming the immediate transfer ruling doesn’t go through of course. 

No problem.  He doesn't have enough credits to graduate this summer.  

[Sheltiedave]

He would if he enrolled at Barton Community College

He'll be a good pickup for somebody, and definitely would have helped our team these past two seasons. I don't see him as a fit at SLU anymore, as I'm sure he'll be able to get more shots/minutes at a different school. Best of luck to Jalen.

[Compton]

I hope his next transfer is as successful as his last. I mean that in the bet way. Good luck to him.

He had a great year and Louisiana sportswriters named him "Newcomer of the Year" among all college basketball players in the state. Good to see that he's doing great.

His success reinforces that Ford is a top-notch recruiter...a few recruits have left, but none due to a definitive lack of talent.

Question: Zeke Moore returns next season for SIUE....as of then will he be the last Crews recruit still playing?

Agreed.  Hope to see him make an impact for a tourney team next year.

I liked Jalen and he could have helped in the 18-19 season when we became short handed. Probably would have helped this past season but would have cut into Perkin’s minutes. It worked out well for all. I would guess he has his sights set on LSU or another SEC team.

I wouldn't be surprised.  Skylar Mays, his former high school teammate, had a lot of success at LSU.

That depends on whether Jermaine Bishop is still playing.

Crews era  so toxic has to be measured in half lives.

Bishop was classified as a redshirt senior for 2019-20 season

Applied for a medical redshirt I believe

I believe Bishop is expected to come back for one more season at Norfolk State.

[slufan13]

Bishop had a redshirt year when he was hurt, a redshirt year when he was suspended, a redshirt year when he transferred. And yet here we are where we are not 100% convinced that Jimerson will get a redshirt.

My mizzou friend sent me a screenshot of a powermizzou (paywall) post about Okoro.  The guy who posted it has a ton of ties to STL, he used to work with sports for ksdk I believe. Anywho, his post to the mizzou board said, " He wont be playing in columbia, but he'll be playing in missouri"

I don't think this is correct. Bishop has received one redshirt year, which I'm assuming was the year he sat out. He then had to burn a year after transferring. I'm not sure whether he has officially been granted another year of eligibility yet, but would presume he will. At best, Bishop will play 3 full seasons of college basketball.
