Dr. Chaifetz will be at the Chaifetz Arena this weekend with his Pickleball tourney. If you had watched his Podcast with Chris May, you would know that he will be very available to talk to any Billiken or Pickleball Fans. He threw out an open invitation. Instead of your neverending repetitive, repetitive, repetitive posts that do nothing, do something that has meaning. Go talk to the Man. Yes, face to face with Dr. C. I am sure he will give you time to air your grievances about Chris May.

Dr. Pickleball! The Shock is hosting a Pickleball tourney this weekend at Chaifetz. Dr. C. will be there and will talk to anyone who wants to converse. Thames is having a great summer. Dr. Chaifetz appreciates how the Athletic Department and the boosters have helped getting SLU to where it needs to be financially to compete in the Revenue Sharing era. Dr. C lives in Florida but will try to make it to most of the Men's Basketball games.

I clicked the link thinking it was Zac and Peter, so I apologize if my click on the video encourages the turd to keep doing these brutal interviews.

Imagine being an AD May simp.

Hoosier pal. Still defending this idiot. Drinking the kool aid just like Bob O and BoT president. Love it!

Dear Dr. Feser, Just wanted to give you an update on volleyball players not having money that was promised to them before they arrived on campus almost one month ago. A parent of a current player told me out of nowhere money showed up in her daughter’s account today. A true Christmas in July miracle! Plus, AD Herb ditched the sports coat for his riveting new podcast butt kissing, I mean interviewing Dr. Chaifetz, who looked like he flew in on a Frontier red eye from Chicago three days ago and they still haven’t found his lost luggage. What. A. Coincidence. It is sad that it takes an idiot posting on a message board to get AD Tarlek to do his job. To just do the right thing! The volleyball coaches have been giving players money out of their own pockets the last month or so, to help kids buy meals because the AD didn’t do his job. He wouldn’t feed those kids at CC, but it sure does look nice, right? What if university didn’t pay AD for a month? Think he would be frantic to get his money? Reality is he would be too afraid to say anything and send his wife up to the office to ask for it. What a profile in leadership.

Not in any MBA syllabus, but an extremely accurate description of reality in corporations.

I have worked in large corporations during the transition from an old CEO/President to a new one. In my experience this transition time is a time when the deadwood becomes extremely congenial to the new CEO/President in an effort to become indispensable to the new to the new top dog. Once this end is achieved by the deadwood, nothing happens, things remain what they were before the transition to the new CEO/President. This is straight out of the theory of the wimps and the weasels inside corporations.

I was really hoping that he'd be gone with the new President. It's still July and I hope he's gone soon. But I'm losing hope. May have to rain the Haterade again.

And it would be far less speculative….still waiting for definitive evidence cramps won’t happen any more.

I bet if he was asked if Sharma and Dunlap have a chance to end up being All A10, I bet he would give a similar answer.

A Roy Firestone and a Herb Tarlek reference in the same post. Our septuagenarian fanbase should appreciate.

Love the Herb Tarlek reference, you may have nailed it there.

Heard from many people associated with the biggest club volleyball team in the metro area, High Performance that they are openly telling kids and parents in classes of 26 and beyond stay away from SLU volleyball. Current players aren’t getting meals and their scholarships are messed up again for the second consecutive year. This has been an issue going on for weeks too. I know people think I’m annoying and/or deranged but I do not lie about anything I post. Just another example of how poorly things are run internally, mbb is the golden goose, we all get it, what about the other 380 students in that program? While this is going on AD Herb Tarlek is play pretending as a wanna be Roy Firestone podcaster for a single digit audience. I really hope Dr. Feser can dig in and find out real truth there. AD Tarlek just buries his head in the sand when real problems arise and masks it with toxic positivity and cringy podcasts. He’s lost the locker room as they say big time.

BOOM! I'm sure you upset some MBMs with this true and correct post. Sure Thames came in under Ford, but Tate is the one who brought him in....Pattonville connection. Before his cramping issue hampered him, Schertz stated that Thames was the best player on the team. "It's not the Coach's job to keep the players happy. It's the players job to keep the Coach happy." Best guys play no matter how they got to SLU.

Coach will play his players regardless of who recruited them. I do not think he is the petty type.

I know there are no benefits as a fan to taking this side of the argument but....I really just can't see it. Thames ballhandling is below average and he is a very bad defender (stands straight up and doesn't get low). This is probably due to his hamstrings/injuries but when he gets beat off the dribble, the other team absolutely feasts. Now if he is going to turn his athleticism into being one of the best defenders on the team, then I can see it...but chances of that are slim given recent history.

While it was a small sample size, after I want to say 7(?)ish games he was ranked as a top 10 player in the country according to T-rank. Anyone who can cut as well as him, shoot the 3 a little, and finish around the rim will see a lot of PT.

Tell that to Gus Phillips, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

Last year if healthy, he would have played as an undersized, but athletic 4. He wasn't going to take Gibsons min at the wing. Before his serious cramps he appeared to shoot well enough from the outside to keep teams honest. I think his min will come at the 4 again this year if healthy.

from stuonslu When josh schertz is asked about Thames He has said repeatedly that Thames might have been on a trajectory to become an all atlantic 10 player (now i know that there is such a thing as coach speak) but that is high praise from a coach who did not bring him
