There is not more on SLU. Best player is an under sized good guard with a solid supporting cast but nothing great. Just get in Collins grill and then Dayton is better at every other position. Everyone else if you play physical they do not respond. They are willing to lose.
Friday 2/10 Game

I disagree. St. Louis was picked to place second in the league by A10 coaches and most pundits (second to Dayton). Obviously the coaches felt this team had plenty of talent. Granted they're in 3rd place, but this game tonight was underwhelming in what was arguably their biggest conference game to date of the season.
I disagree because preseason predictions are relevant until tip off of the season. Biggest issue is Perkins has not fully recovered from his knee injury. Who is the guy after Collins? jimmerson is easily guarded. The season speaks for itself and I can tell you many Fordham fan thought we had a good chance to win that game going in. I watch the games I don’t care about preseason predictions.

True, preseason predictions mean nothing, but you also don’t beat Memphis, Providence, and take Auburn down to the wire on the road in a game you really should have won without talent. The potential to have performed far better both in and out of conference is there, but they haven’t grasped it. Seems to be a trait of Ford teams. Ford teams also seem to start off looking as advertised, before faltering. To me that comes back to coaching too, as it indicates being figured out a bit once teams have some tape on you.

Fortunately we didn't need them tonight but I had 3 guys, 1 lady, and one purple-haired "other" in the bullpen for Anthony in case we ran out of bodies. I pulled them all off the same RecPlex coed team so they'd have some on-court continuity. I might call Travis and see if he need them.

A lot of Billikens fans are on board with your take on Travis. His seat may be getting warm.

I think everyone rated the Billikens highly pre-season based on Javonte Perkins being fully recovered from last season’s injury. He simply is not. Then when Fred Thatch went down this season we lost a gritty player especially on defense.

Biggest Douche on The Board Contest
In the spirit of March Madness, I would like to put together a bracket of all the worthless douchebag posters on the board. Then we can can vote round by round until the biggest douchebag on the board has taken the title. The winner will get the title of "The Load Mom Should Have Swallowed"...

Where are they now?
AOX's reference to the fondly remembered KING OF STRUT got me thinking of some of the other posters to the old A10 boards that no longer appear here such as No Pants and Fact Checker (later shortened to Checker). Ah, for the free-for-alls that were the Voy years. The years have dimmed my...
