Three future NBA players playing at little old U of D. It was a really hot ticket and the Titans were always mentioned with MSU and U-M on the local news and in the newspapers. They were a really big deal here locally. This reminds me of that... but Emoni Bates is much bigger nationally than those great U-D players and Dickey V, baby. He's got to deliver to keep this thing going, though. No pressure.
Not only do I remember but I took photos of their game in the late 70s at Bowen. I was at court side and got a couple good ones.
It is possible that Noah and Emoni put EMU on the map. And as you suggest, Emoni already has a national name.

For Bovine:
Where is the post where you suggested a couple of transfers from your way? Was one from N. Mexico State and I forget where the other one was.

Just bumped the post Steve. I really like Donnie Tillman from New Mexico State. He’s a natural wing, but could probably play in a 2 role also.
The thing I like most about him is that he is old, with lots of experience, and is efficient offensively. We have a talented team, but they are babies.

RE: I Was Wrong!!!!!
I do not know this for sure but I got word that he signed an NIL deal with 2 commas from GAMEABOVE. If this holds true it was a major factor as to why he signed here.

I did a little looking at Donnie Tillman earlier today.
He is trying to get a 6th year although it isn't clear how. He has already played 5 years.
That said, if NCAA gives him another year, he'd be a good get. Native Detroiter.

I would guess that is fake. Especially if it was phrased to you as a “deal with 2 commas”.

The way he put it was a deal with 2 commas, I tried to get more but he simply wouldn't give me any more details.
