I have some connections to Goodwin and fairly early on it was clear that he had considerable interest in staying home and playing at SLU. However with Crews and the team tanking, that looked like a long shot. When Ford was brought in and focused all of his efforts on Goodwin and the Eagles, he was back on board with the possibility of staying home and playing at SLU. I had always heard that he and his family were not real high on Illinois, so I think the recruiting "experts" got that one wrong, but he was really high on Northwestern. When Tate was hired by SLU and with Ford continuing his full court press and selling him as being a point guard at SLU in the mold of Marcus Smart, he was sold.

Tate trying to flip Jeremiah Tilmon to SLU? - FIJItiger MU - 8/18 08:51:01
     Who - Mr. Orange SU - 8/18 16:13:49
     The Eagles are now really pushing kids to SLU - TheLegend MU - 8/18 14:19:45
          So the Eagles, as has always seemed to be the case - zodiac6 JC - 8/18 15:09:57
               My understanding was they typically stayed out of recruiting - TheLegend MU - 8/18 15:18:32
                    Didnt they previously do that for Donovan at UF?(nm) - FIJItiger MU - 8/18 15:26:03

                    Just seems odd that they'd do that for SLU only. - zodiac6 JC - 8/18 15:24:07
                         Doesn't seem that odd - there are two factors - - tigerdb MU - 8/18 15:38:12
