eagle88 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I'm not sure who originally coined the name Big Maple for Eli but i talked with him this morning and he didn't realize he was being called that but loves the name! Eli is not only great on the court but off the court as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per Otis 83, ORU radio voice Adam Hildebrand dubbed Elijah with that moniker following their St. Thomas post-game interview. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keenan Henderson Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Here is a list of nicknames for some of the players: Sir Isaac Herron: SLIM Carlos Jurgens: The Barber or barber lou (Francis calls him that because he cuts the guy's hair) Max: Mid Court Max Lufile: Big Maple McBride: Mackie Any other ideas for nicknames for Kareem, Francis, Trey, or some of the other guys? (let's have a little fun with it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
