He certainly could have used this pre-trip training period to learn the Billiken system and receive all the coaching help a raw talent needs. Any solid news on this front from any posters? Quote

ARon Posted July 3, 2022 Posted July 3, 2022 14 hours ago, Old guy said: Let's look at the A10 honor roll for academic achievement for this year. Here are the MBB members included in it: Brandon Courtney Gibson Jimerson Marten Linssen Francis Okoro Fred Thatch Jr. Do you see the names Yuri Collins or Javonte Perkins in this list? No, they are not there. Why should this be? In my opinion, only those student athletes that intend to pursue a career outside of sports will be willing to put on the time and effort of getting the grades to make the honor roll. We all know it is not easy to obtain this level of academic achievement, but if you add to it the amount of time these kids spend in practice and playing, it is absolutely an outstanding level of achievement for them. You do not see Yuri or Javonte in this list because they see their future as playing basketball professionally. In my opinion, this is not the case for the kids listed above. This is an opinion. No player who sees pro basketball as a career choice could also put in the effort to be an honor student? That opinion is utterly ridiculous. Fraz, dlarry and slufanskip 3 Quote

brianstl Posted July 3, 2022 Posted July 3, 2022 Franz Wagner and Corey Krispert were First Team Academic All-Americans. Quote
brianstl Posted July 3, 2022 Posted July 3, 2022 I really think the fact that Gibson Jimerson was a second team Academic All-American should be getting much more attention. SLUMedBilliken15, thetorch, BIG BILL FAN and 1 other 4 Quote

It never gets updated before They take new team pictures or the roster and coaching staff are not complete. Quote
thetorch Posted July 4, 2022 Posted July 4, 2022 https://collegehoopstoday.com/index.php/rothstein-files/atlantic-10-offseason-breakdown-3/ Jon Rothstein's Preseason A10 Breakdown. Billikens are preseason #1 in conference. Quote
HoosierPal Posted July 4, 2022 Posted July 4, 2022 https://collegehoopstoday.com/index.php/rothstein-files/atlantic-10-offseason-breakdown-3/ Rothstein likes the Bills, Dayton, VCU and Davidson as the top 4. Collins, Perkins, Burton, Oduro and Holmes as 1st team (No Loyer?) He picks Holmes as POY. Pickett is one of his Top 10 Impact Transfers and Forrester one of his Top 10 Under the Radar Transfers Appears the A10 is a guard (wing) heavy league, as usual. Quote
BuiltFordBills Posted July 5, 2022 Posted July 5, 2022 I thought this was a pretty good tweet from Loyola about joining the A-10. Already trying to start the rivalry with SLU too, love it Quote
