Recruit

Recruit (1/7)

  1. hi It is a sad day for me. In December, I resigned as head mens and womens golf coach at SLU. I apologize to all former and current players if my resignation made it more convenient or precipitated in anyway this classless decision. We started womens golf two years ago, if I had known this would happen, that i would recruit these players to attend SLU, with no athletic scholarship money, I would never had recuited them. I have 4 other girls who were coming in as freshmen next year, I apologize to you as well. They say that they will distribute the golf funds to help up to "6 other programs". What a joke. My womens operating budget was $16,000.00 for the year. My mens operating budget was $26,000.00. They paid me (rounded up $26,000 per year to coach both teams). The women received no athletic scholarship money and the mens team got around $88,000.00per year or roughly 2.5 equivalencies. The NCAA limit is 4.5/year (and 6.0 for women} I wrote this note too publicly apologize to all former players and to the current players! Not to state how classless and incompetent this current administration is and how lucky we will be when Stanford calls (please call soon). Ed Schwent Former Head Golf Coach
