Because they don’t have souls.

I banged a couple gingers in my time. One of them had a clamp down under. Really impressive.

She was a Dance major.

Okoro made a strange decision.

I have no idea what some of these players are thinking when selecting programs. How in the hell do you think St. Louis is gonna get you to the pros or give you a quality education if you don’t make it?! Has anybody seen what Antigua has done with big men? Especially Kofi this past year? Okoro must not be a very intelligent person.....twice. Looks like he’s gonna be irrelevant, much like that one guy who thought he was cute with the hat trick.

There's a movie title that sums up Okoro's decision making pretty well, Dumb and Dumber.

What’s big deal? He probably ended up where he belongs. Injury issues, decreasing playing time and production as the year went on, ties up a scholarship next year we could use on a 5th year guy that can contribute right away. I wasn’t even remotely interested in having him come here.

Oh I wasn’t really either. I’m just saying if we’re showing interest AGAIN after he already made a bad choice in Oregon, why he would make another dumb decision. You absolutely take it if we give you a shot. But oh well🤷🏻‍♂️

Okoro made a strange decision.

What do you find strange about it?

Everything. Former top 50ish big with raw athletic talent. Reportedly a good student. Plans to redshirt to rehab from injuries.  Needs to develop offensive skills. Seems like the type who would attract a lot of interest from high major programs that meet his apparent needs.

Maybe he likes that unique combination of hillbillies and papists.

Hedging is the only way to go through life. Diversity your bonds, etc.

Re: Okoro, I don't think really people appreciate how quickly rankings and past potential mean shit.

SLU is very good education.
Basketball not so much. Ford is a hack.

Another strange thing is how quickly he made the decision.  He could have waited to see what interested high majors were doing and still had good mid major options.

Ford is often believed to be slimey.  My guess is they were in contact with him for some time before his announced decision.

Javon Freeman Liberty is transferring and needs to be closer to his grandma.  Do we need him?   Do we have room for him?  School record for steals at Valpo.
