just a big thank you to Eric, Barrett and Ronnie! Eric, thank you for your three years here and I really enjoyed watching you these past 3 years. Ronnie, thanks for coming to SIU to play out your senior year. Barret, WOW it was a blast watching you this year! Thanks for your leadership and I wish the three of you best of luck with your future plans.
One last request from you three: let's go to St Louis on a mission!
Agree. They all play hard and have helped Saluki ball get back on track. Eric McGill has turned out to be a very good player for us.
Amen, amen, amen. Looking forward to seeing you guys play in St. Lou!
The advancement and diffusion of knowledge is the only guardian of true liberty.

A big thank you to the Saluki seniors! You definitely have rejuvenated Saluki basketball. Your jobs not done yet.....LET'S MAKE SOME NOISE IN THE LOU!!!
GO DAWGS!!
To bad we can't have Mr. Benson for one more year . . . his development in just one year at Southern is unbelievable.
He (and Ronnie and Eric) started something . . . Marcus, Lance, Brown, Harvey, Davis, H Fran, Mr. Dalton (inbound), Gooch, and Cook are the next step forward.
Can't wait for the STL and eventually next year ! ! !
Go Southern Go ! ! !
McGill has always been a favorite of mine. Suggs may not have been spectacular but he was rock hard steady. Benson was a surprise. I honestly wasn't expecting this much from him, but he proved to be quite capable and showed tremendous offensive improvement from early in the season. Yes, hats off to these three Salukis!
I’m not sure if this has been posted yet, but this is a really cool story involving Benson. Thank you Barret for having such an impact on the community in just one year! We are lucky to have you as a Saluki!
