A guy like SVB or Bruce would not be it, even if they did develop. A 6 8 shooting forward like Hargrove would be more effective backing up Avila due to the style. Hello Kellen Thames?? If Thames can develop his passing game I could see him serving that role. Otherwise we have to hope to find a guy. But 7ft isn't as much of a requirement as the ability to be patient, pass well, and shoot the ball effectively. So like a Jayson Kent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm pleased to see our name in lights again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we hired Rick Jr. But right now there’s a lot of uncertainty in the college hoops world. Things will eventually come into focus especially in the A10. I do think if we land the 3-5 ISU players we’ll be a top 4 program. But as we’ve seen top 4 in the A10 guarantees only 1 bid. For a 2nd bid we’re gonna have to go like 15-3 and finish first or second. Then at least have to make the championship game in the tourney. My crystal ball can’t see that far out today.

I don’t think there are many games we are locked into. In one of his interviews, Coach said Illinois Stare was the only OOC game set. I’m surprised Utah State isn’t on there. I figured we owed them a return. He did say he is open to MVC teams, but would give ISU a few years before visiting that possibility. I would totally be up for that. Much rather play MOST, Drake, Bradley, than Lincoln, Darmouth, et.al. You have to think SIUC would be renewed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slu72 Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 I’m up in the air as to how many P6 schools will put us on their sched. Will they look at us a good W or a really bad loss? Until we get our roster squared away I wouldn’t expect much news on our non con games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the roster squared away and then see who you can get on the schedule. I would say we do owe a favor to SIUE for letting us use their court in the WNIT, so maybe they convert that into a game with them. The schedule appears to be wide open.
