SLU-South Carolina Upstate in review; here comes Liberty

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

A while after the game ended, radio guy Bob Ramsey walked into the press room and asked, “So, what did we learn tonight?”

I had to admit I didn’t know. (Bob agreed.) SC Upstate, like the previous two teams on SLU’s…

Cotto transfers, Part II

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

I haven’t spoken to Ruben Cotto yet — as his high school coach told me tonight, Ruben can be hard to get hold of — but Rick Majerus stressed tonight that Cotto’s departure was “very amicable.” Majerus didn’t go far beyond his…

SLU-Savannah State in review

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

I’ll update this with some quotes later, but here’s some of the nuts and bolts of the game.

SLU-Nebraska game in review

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

First off, if you’re looking at a final box score from the game, odds are something’s wrong with it. Nebraska’s computers crashed late in the first half and threw the box score into a tizzy. The minutes in the “official”…

SLU-Boston College basketball in review (with the word free throw added on a stat)

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Ever have one of those days where you really dreaded opening your e-mail?

A question I’ve been asked a few times this year is, Is Rick Majerus downplaying his team’s abilities? Are they better than the dire predictions he’s been making?

SLU-Kent State basketball in review

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

I have to admit I thought Kent State would have an easier time with SLU. (Or SLU would have a harder time with Kent State, take your pick.) The UMSL game wasn’t exactly dazzling and Kent State has some legitimate…

SLU-UMSL basketball postgame thoughts

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

First off, I’m not a big fan of indoor fireworks, and the big loud bang that marked the end of the pregame introductions I’d have been just as happy without. SLU coach Rick Majerus could have done without them too.…

SLU basketball seems likely to open without Lisch

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Rick Majerus was vague on the subject — “The trainer tells me if I can play them or not,” he always tells me when I ask about things like that — but I think that Kevin Lisch will sit out…
