@brianstl: huh?

Lou Malnati's.

Been away for a week but believe I have updated the original list (new listings in BOLD.

General Motors. General Mills.

Santa Clara.

I hear the opponent will be Santa Clara.

Coleman went 7 and 20 in his lone year at SLU in 1977-78, my junior year. I believe he was hired out of Vashon High School and followed local legend Johnnie Parker, Sr., to SLU. If memory serves, Parker was out of Central High. Parker lasted six games into his sophomore year under Coleman as Coleman went 7 and 20. Others on that team included Milt Wiley, Henry Tiggs, Mike Smith, Craig Shaver, Mark Rhode, Rick Plate, Mike Newbold, Carl Johnson, Howard Jackson, Curtis Hughes, Jimmy Glass, Everne Carr, and Mark Alcorn. They weren't collectively any good and played in the tough Metro Conference. And, of course, Ricky Frazier. Frazier only played in 17 games of those 27. Unfortunatley, this was in the real down period of SLU basketball. Coleman followed Randy Albrecht and was replaced by Ron Ekker. This was about the tiem college basketball was taking off, highlighted by the Bird/Magic final in 1979. Many also forget that Grawer had bookend seasons of 5 and 23 in both his first year and his last. So while college basketball is starting to soar and really take off, SLU was bumbling its way through typical bad seasons. Yes, Grawer had a few, but he could never get over the Xavier hump and make the NCAAs, making the NIT finals in 88-89 and 89-90. Spoon then won with Grawers' core and Romar lived the Miracle in Memphis. The Majerus years then became the highlight of the program. If you start with Albrecht in 1974-75, SLU has seen 8 NCAA appearances and 6 NIT appearances with one CBI runner-up appearance. Those percentages are 16%, 12% and 2%.

I never got that "much" from Tate's in-game coaching skills, if there were any. But with the proliferation of 'suits' on the bench, retaining Tate for continuity and the St. Louis connections seems a good move at this point.

Virginia has become the first state to enact a law that allows the school itself to pay its players: Virginia law allows schools to pay athletes for NIL - ESPN Click on the link and listen to Tim Legler's take on it all. He is saying everything I have said or believed ---- and it starts with calling it pay-for-play. He also talks about how it's likely the ruination OF sport as we knew it and echoes the same thing Nick Saban is saying about the term "student-athlete" being a MYTH. Unlike a statement in the article, I do not believe this gets us closer to a federal or national solution because i believe in what cgeldmacher is saying about pending law suites and continued issues going forward. The UVa AD believes the school has "an obligation to maintain elite athletics program at UVa." This law will force most other states to do the same to "keep up with the Jones." Schools will then have to increase their operating budgets to cover the new cost of NIL line in their bottom lines. It might or migh tnot take the payment plans out of the hands of rabid boosters. Virginia has stepped in where the NCAA continues to fail. But I don't know how the NCAA can succeed when at every turn, they are rebuked by a court case as cgeldemacher states. They continue to call these NIL deals when we all know the reality is simply pay-for-play. I think these scholarship players ought to pay their own way through school now. They seem to have enough money on hand.
