James Posey & David West, old Xavier rosters

Postby THill42 » Wed Jul 16, 2008 10:19 pm

After hearing that James Posey signed with New Orleans, I became curious if the two ever played together at Xavier. My vague memory told me they probably did not, but I wanted to double check. I cannot find old Xavier rosters anywhere, most importantly the 1999-00 roster, when David West was a freshman.

Do any of you know where I could possibly find this 99-00 roster online?

I've got the '99-'00 media guide, and Posey and West did not play together. The entire roster was-

Alvin Brown
Reggie Butler
Kevin Frey
Obi Harris
Mo McAfee
Lloyd Price
Aaron Turner
Darnell Williams
James Baronas
Ryan Caldwell
Lionel Chalmers
Marcus Mason
Brandon McIntosh
David West
David Young

Wow, The Celtics fans are really annoyed with Danny Ainge for not going harder after Posey. Read their comments, very gratifying for XU fans.

Posey graduated in 1999 with my wife. Also he was a freshman when I was a Senior.

Yes, Posey graduated in 1999 and was drafted that summer. West started at XU in 1999 that August.

It would have been nice to see Posey and West together at X. James after a few months in the NBA told a certain radio announcer that he wished he would have stayed at X for his last year. I bet he doesn't give that much thought today.
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

I remember Posey was ineligible his freshman year, but I do not remember him leaving early? Did he have a chance to request another year or did he leave knowing he had another year left?
