Agree, that was a dismal year. In fact from 75-82 were dismal years but in his case his tenure was only one year. The team he inherited was bad. Also, did not improve significantly when Ekker was hired. Thank God for Grawer. What makes Grawer special in my mind that unlike now, Grawer was not handed a lot of resources.

This going back now 15 yrs but I recall bonds were used to fund a good portion of the Chaifetz. Interest does have to payed on the bonds & $ set aside if someone cashes in.

Geez, it was only one year. Didn't he pull in Ricky Frazier?

Actually they do: https://catalog.slu.edu/colleges-schools/arts-sciences/theological-studies/greek-latin-language-literature-ba/ I don't what you would do with such a degree other than be one of those folks that roam the desert in the Middle East searching for ancient scriptures.

It can work both ways: 20-21 Duquesne A10 record was 1-16. This year 10-8 and a 2nd round in the NCAAs, which, even before Norm Nixon, has not done since the 60s. I will admit, I think players getting compensated is good, but this is crazy

I am sure CJS reviewed some game tapes & got some recommendations from Tate. I wonder if he had some individual 'come to Jesus' meetings with individuals and saying 'I see limited playing time for you for the upcoming season' ? He may pretty much know who transferring in from ISU.

Was he scholarship player at ISU? Doesn't faculty, which I believe Coach Schertz is considered, get free tuition?

I see that Pitino in trouble with that presently. As if it matters with him, just part of doing business.

Thanks 05, brought back a lot of memories.

I think it is only happen if UCONN bolts to the B12. Can UCONN make the football program comparable to its men and women BB program? I doubt they have the will to do it therefore they remain in the NBE. Make the A10 better. Bring in C of C & I like to see Bradley, for our sake. Bradley been decent the last couple of years with Wardle. Also, if you remember the Bradley back in our day, they were our biggest rivals. Recall that last game in the 70-1 season, 15000+ in the old Barn. Watching Jimmy Irving go off on them. With that win we got into a 3 way tie in the old MVC.

05, if you could give us a link, I would appreciate it. Thanks

Thank God the portal was not in existence during the Shimmy years. The roster would have had a 100% turnover every year. Shimmy did know how to PR herself. Loved her blog. Also, didn't they make a documentary movie about the team during her tenure?

WOW! Talk about a someone from the past that was from the evil Dark Ages of SLU WBB. Curious, where is she now?

When I read that, it made my Sunday morning, could not stop laughing. I'll have to remember that one.
