kappy96 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 Haven't heard anything credible on how he views the Athletic Department's role in his vision for the future but I pray he understands that a change is needed and doesn't handcuff May by going on the cheap.

waldo027 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 My understanding is that he believes athletics is an integral part of the student experience. If we pony up for a coach then it won't be his money anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Metzinger Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 My understanding is that he believes athletics is an integral part of the student experience. If we pony up for a coach then it won't be his money anyway. However, going from LeMoyne to SLU is like going from the Circus Circus to (at best, given the current situation) the Tropicana or Bally's. Even given the recent renovations to both hotels. How he handles this will set the tone for his administration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
