Taj79 Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 @RUBillsFan: well, perception is in the eye of the beholder. No argument is worthwhile, no skin in the game. Let me ask this ... how many at-large bids has the WCC garbered in that 2018 timeframe? I really don't know but that might tell a little better how the two leagues stacked up. USF's 2022 bid negates out 2019 bid. Of course, if you throw out Gonzaga and St. Mary's, no one other than San Diego has won that league since 1996.

The Wiz Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Top 2 players at each position still available in the portal...To get on my list you need to have good scouting reports, be able to shoot well, be truly available (some that are available are not taking any new suitors at this point) and finally not coming off any serious "situations". Center Jordan Brown.....6'11....Louisiana Alexis Yetna.......6'8......Seton Hall PG CJ Fulton..........6'2.......Lafayette Ronald Politte...6'2......Geo Mason SG Kruz Perrott-Hunt...6-3...S.

SLU_Nick Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 The Dandridge silence is deafening. we need to just have a Billikens.com recruiting/transfer moment of silence until he commits. nothing else matters to me right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sayin' , just sayin I guess the key word in my post was "serious" situations. The fight during the game that Pruitt was involved in led to a 1 game suspension. While certainly not something which should be condoned, it didn't rise to the level of some players I didn't put on the list (for rape , robbery and burglary) Btw, Pruitt's 21 points and 9 rebs was one of the reasons the Bills lost by 2 to SIU-e.

The point of the post is ...these are the types of players that SLU should be looking at. In the case of Dandridge , he was rated 3rd best of the remaining PF. He was slightly downgraded due to injury plagued season otherwise he would be #1 on the remaining PFs list. This shows that SLU is looking in the right places.

At some point, he has to realize he’s reached the end of this process and needs to lock down a school before the schools fill up their roster spots and he’s sitting out the year. Not sure exactly what that point is, but I’m pretty sure it happens sometime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was between only SLU and Memphis for Dandridge. It looks like Memphis is his choice. https://www.instagram.com/stories/bigdawgmalco23/3125907812945411320/?hl=en Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheChosenOne Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 Yeah, a week ago I was excited about the rumored additions to finalize the roster, but at this point I have no idea what to expect. Being Friday, it does seem unlikely we got commitments from anyone who visited last weekend. It’s getting late, need to start closing on some guys. brianstl likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
