It is the worst model of all...free agency with no salary cap or revenue sharing.

Ohio HS player of the year, starter in the B12, and a 7 foot wingspan? Sign me up.

All of these coaches want to win (duh) at the highest level they can. Can a coach legitimately believe that he can build a final four quality team at SLU? Rick Majerus thought he could and was on the path to doing so. Travis Ford said he could but I am not sure he belived it and he certainly didn't have the skill set to do it. If SLU is successful in being competitive in and around the NCAA tournament (defined as getting in more often than not and winning some games), I belive the resources will be available to compete at a very high level (defined as 2nd and 3rd weekend level). That scenario would keep any coach here. But you have to lay the foundation Coach Majerus did, consistently win in your conference and start getting bids. That is the progression we want/need to see that will ultimately keep a coach here.

Cool. So you also posted this on the West Virginia message board, right?

This is a solid take. I will add Pizzeria da Gloria on the Hill. And I am trying Motor Town Pizza this weekend. I might be in the minority, but also like the double crust pizza at JJ Twigs. But let's be honest, pizza is like sex, when it's good its great and when it's bad it is still really good.

He averaged over 4 assists/game as a high school senior. Thinking that is a pretty good indicator of why he is seen as a fit.

Luke Goode from Illinois is in the portal. From Ft. Wayne Indiana. Wonder if he would be an option? Luke Goode - 2023-24 - Men's Basketball - University of Illinois Athletics (fightingillini.com)

I really want Turnbull. Good 3 point shooter in college (small sample size) and high school (39%). And the ability to play a bit bigger from time to time.

It's not. I got a text message from 2 board members with an invite.

Might be tough with only one year left, but this is the kind of player that seem slike he would fit the new system.

This is going to be interesting to watch. I think one of the biggest differences between the MVC/A10 and ISU/SLU has been our ability to schedule home and homes with P5 schools. Was that a Ford thing or league thing? Hoping the schedule remains robust and we get some good non-con home games.

ummm...Rick Majerus?

Very few teams get to win their last game of the season. Way to go ladies.
