I have never seen a nastier fan base than these guys. I like to check out other A10 team boards every once and awhile just to see what's going on. The stuff they spout off about is just rediculous. They can't mention us without bringing up welding. This from a school that had it's best two players suspened for sexual assault. Can't wait to play them again, because they can't stand it when we beat them! www.billikens.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=19936

Ugh, unreal!
Why are not allowed to move on?? Every one else that goes through this get to move on. Do you think Georgia still hears about Harrick, Baylor about the murder, etc? It's been almost 8 years and even when we win games, it's the welders win a game.

over on the A-10 board we get a lot of love from the X fans there! Snipe (their idolized leader) is a Bona fan!

I wouldn't worry about this kind of stuff, especially coming out of St. Louis...

You're right Mangham, most X fans are supporters of Bona over on the A-10 Board. But, there are a few everywhere whose memories seem to begin in 2003 and end in 2007 or 8.

We have payed a very big price because of a few. Wick, VBK and Gothard have payed a bigger price. Have any of the above had any real jobs after the scandal? VBK could coach so he has probably paid the biggest price. I am surprised he hasn't ended up on an NBA bench as an assistant somewhere. The pros generally overlook these kinds of things. As for St. Louis, who really cares. They have a coach who really doesn't want the A10 and is at odds with the school president over this league. They have had their own share of incidents also with the 2 players being dismissed. I could question the character of the players Majerus has recruited but quite franlkly that is their problem. I just hope we keep rolling this year. X is due to be taken down. I don't think the Bonnies will be the team but I could see Temple knocking them off their pedestal this year. They are constantly losing head coaches and I would think, somewhere along the line that will take it's toll.

Out with St Louis and in with Seton Hall.
How about a quasi OOC Catholic League. We use to play Providence, Villanova, Seton Hall etc.

But you did notice that that poster is now "on sabbatical", did you not? Waggy and the boys took care of it.

FYI Dobber: VBK quickly attained a position as an assistant under Tim Floyd with the New Orleans Hornets post-scandal and now believe he coaches a minor league team in Nashville. Lane became director of championships for the ECAC. Believe he is still there. Nobody will touch Wick. Those guys deserve everything they get.

SLU probably shouldnt have much to say these days to be honest given what is going on with their program and their two best players being kicked out of school for sexual assualt.
