Duquesne closing thoughts

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

First off, a short apology on not having any player quotes in this morning’s game story. This happens when Majerus keeps the team in the room for a long time after a game. He was in there with them for…

SLU hates St. Bonaventure

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

I quit.

I know the A-10 is unpredictable, but the SLU-St. Bonaventure game on Saturday should have been the most predictable game of the weekend. (Though, as I think I warned in an earlier post, SLU needed to take care…

SLU loves Philly

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

My favorite place in the A-10 is probably St. Joseph’s. It’s a great place to watch a game, a great atmosphere. Everyone is close, the fans are noisy yet, I think, courteous. I’ve figured out where the media parking is and…

Fordham follow

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

For those of you who might have been listening to the Fordham radio broadcast — and I’m pretty sure there’s a fairly small overlap, if any, between people who read this blog and people who were listening to WFUV 90.7…

More on Massachusetts

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

WINDSOR LOCKS, Conn. — I really shouldn’t be here right now, but, for the second straight weekend, I’m stranded on the road on a Sunday night. Last week, my flight out of Richmond was cancelled, keeping me in Virginia overnight.…

GW, take two

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

SLU played better defense and better offense and came away with a 25-point win over George Washington. It was obviously a very big difference from the first meeting, and while SLU will never be an offensive juggernaut this season, that…

Richmond in review

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Late in the second half of the SLU-Richmond game, some of the lights went out in the Robins Center at Richmond and John O’Connor of the Richmond Times-Dispatch turned to me and said, “They forgot to pay the bill.” Actually,…

La Salle in review

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

PHILADELPHIA-ATLANTA-ST. LOUIS — I’m working my way home from Philly as I write and compile this, so this will have a touch of Americana to it.

La Salle is the poor sister of Philadelphia basketball and, with Temple and St.…

SLU: Expect the unexpected

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Had you told me SLU would be 1-2 after three games, I’d have probably said they beat George Washington and then lost to Dayton and Rhody. But no. And think how close they came to being 2-1.

A few Thursday…

Points per possession revisited, with other stats

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Many of you may recall that Brad Soderberg loved the stat of points per possession. He thought, and I can’t argue it, that it was far more relevant than a team’s points allowed, because so much of that depended on…
