  1. Past hour
  2. That $250,000 buyout he has would plant a lot of trees. Also would save a lot of CO2 from this board breaking it down.
  3. You ever been to Terre Haute? Not exactly a bustling metropolis with lots of eyes.
  4. Nah. It’s way too cold for that nonsense. My wife looked at the forecast and opted to stay in the hotel.
  5. Today
  6. I think Terre Haute deserves a trophy. We can wait. And come on guys, the coach can target portal guys via the athletic department if need be. Chris May has that totally under control.. right? Right?? Oh God..
  7. Sycamores are good looking trees, plant a hundred of them around campus if that’s what it takes to get our new coach…
  8. They actually got ushers checking tickets?
  9. Indiana state does not want him. They're gonna go pick someone that can win, possibly Schertz' associate head coach Matt Graves. They could also look at a winner like Morehead State's Spradlin. Buckyball from Samford(if no one else goes for him) just as examples. Those types of winners will go to terre haute and win again. Not Ford.
  10. looks like front row easy pickings, last game of winter
  11. one tree that looks better in the dead of winter especially on a sunny day
  12. Front row. Ordered them the day they became available on the Tulane website. It’s damn chilly tonight. Not a ton of people here.
  13. To your point...Player thinking ...do well and I can go with Coach
  14. Yeah the psychological aspect of being in the NIT makes it tough to handicap. Can Schertz keep the team focused? If he built the team right they're competitors and when the ball goes up they turn it on. Plus now there's an added incentive show out in games and get paid. Very interesting. I want the coach at SLU but I want a winner here. So win 2 games then pack up the uhaul.
  15. You either have good seats or a good camera. Possibly both.
  16. I never thought I would be doing spread threads on the NIT particularly if the Bills weren't in it. But in light of the fact that these games do affect the Bills Nation ...here we go. These will not be full analytical threads like the regular Bills threads...just something so you can keep your finger on the pulse (or take your own pulse). Unfortunately, the computer doesn't think this will be over quickly. In a series of simulations, the program showed that ISU will go at least till Mar 26-27 and probably till the first week in April. Not the news most Bills fans want to hear. But that's what happens when you are placed in the wrong tournament...When you wind up in a lower Tourney , chances are you are going to do pretty well. The only early off ramp is a game on Mar 26-27 when they face a tough Cinn team. Cincy is another snubbed team (37 NET...64% C2D). The computer gives that game to ISU because of the home field advantage...but thinks the game will be close. Going forward to Apr 2 ..Nova has a chance to knock off ISU but again a close game with ISU now showing a 1 pt advantage. And then there is the final game...right now the computer gives Wake Forest the championship as it feels that Wake is the best team in the NIT and consequently the most snubbed. In this game, ISU comes in as a B+ team...SMU as a B. Overall ranking for SMU would probably be similar to VCU (another participant ...but only a small chance they would meet). As you can see by the spread, the computer expects that ISU will be able to handle SMU. But this is the NIT and different teams handle this tourney in different ways that will not show up in the data. Some teams will want to prove themselves...show the NCAA that they were misplaced. For other teams, the players are thinking about the NIL, the portal or where or who they will be playing for next season. Word is that the Bills have some sort of deal...but the deal isn't done until it is done AND the longer this drags out the more chance there is that something could go wrong, Bottom line.... The waiting can be painful Sometimes it hurts End the NIT quickly And get onboard with Schertz
  17. I'd trade him for an actual sycamore. At least one isn't an oxygen thief
  18. Looks like the Sugar Bears will be getting their first home loss of the year.
  19. Yesterday
  20. Can we swap Ford for Schertz straight up?
  21. -looking at a few stats for the season on KenPom and found this interesting - on offense our 2pt fg% was 282nd in the country at 47.3 -Tenn was 291, Baylor 303, Creighton 315, Texas Tech 324, Nebraska 337, BYU 340 and Alabama 348 -on offense our 3pt fg% was 143 at 31.6 -Tenn was 107, Baylor 130, Creighton 14, Texas Tech 84, Nebraska 36, BYU 2 and Alabama 35 -on defense we were 312, as in 50 from the bottom, in 3pt %defense
  22. I mean, I agree with all of this, which is why I'd hire Schertz and not even interview Ahearn. I just don't think the dollars would ultimately be as far apart as you had said. My reason is more that SLU would overpay Ahearn - i.e. "This is the range we pay our head coach" - and not that Schertz would be underpaid relative to our competition.
  23. SLU travels to Central Arkansas to take on the Sugar Bears (yes, that’s the team name) Thursday, March 21st, 6:30pm, game is on ESPN+. Winner gets to go play at Northern Iowa, time and date TBD. I couldn’t find any common opponents in their schedule, they play in the ASUN, 21-11, and 14-0 at home.
  24. Here, if we don’t land Schertz hire Will Wade.
  25. For sure May went to donors and told them Ford is leaving we gotta do this and this to keep him. I still say a guy like Chaifetz, who wants badly to be an nba owner, should’ve questioned that contract/decision. Nobody in their right mind was worried about losing Ford. Worst contract ever. I just think May is a puppet, that’s it. He is not telling anyone to do anything. He does as he’s told.
