Will SLU make the tourney?

[Lesson]

SLU gains a 7-footer from down under

Rob Loe, a highly sought 7-foot center from New Zealand, reportedly has given SLU an oral commitment. It's a major recruiting win for the Billikens, who beat out Arizona, Pittsburgh and Colorado for Loe. He played for New Zealand at the world junior championships last summer, the same tournament that teammates Christian Salecich and Cody Ellis were in, and earned a spot with the full national team, the youngest player ever to do so. He's scheduled to play for the world team at the Nike Hoop Summit this month in Portland, Ore. Though a center, Loe can play both inside and out

Nice. SLU should be able to make the tourney 1-2 years.

Loe was a huge get for SLU. I'd say they have a solid chance of winning the A-10 next year, and being a top-25 team for a few years.

Majerus is doing exactly what you'd think he would...he's building SLU into a monster.
