Could be because of the hair but Thames looked taller than the other 2 at the golf tournament.

PNC Park setting is fantastic.

I would be surprised if Amari is not in the starting 5

I agree with the overall tone of your comment. Where I sort disagree is the marketing of Avila. I thought they tried. Was it successful? No but not for lack of effort. I think we could do more community service projects. Maybe with Schertz being here for a year he might have a better feel on what we could do. Yes winning would help.

I know it upset a lot of people when we canceled our golf program. Came out of nowhere. Had a couple of Irish kids if I remember. Was there a backstory?

Kavanaugh is supposed to be a billionaire. His net worth is probably the value of his World Wide Technology Stock. A private company. He is also a part owner of St Louis City. But I am surprised he has nor funded a soccer NIL.

Good Post Nursing for sure

Do we know who will be in our pod? Seems like everyone is overly negative without seeing that.

Looks like a great field for us. Some power 6 programs hopefully you can beat.

Agree it is a 2 way street. But at least this year in the A-10 the street is moving uphill.

Not trying to pick a fight but 3 star has been saying that the mid majors would benefit. We seem to be the only A-10 team getting players from the majors.

I wo I would assume that if the year goes well we would have more money to pay.

Why are we assuming this 15 roster size is locked in? Sounds like it is still up for discussion/ legal definition.

Why did anyone play for Bobbie Knight? Winning might be part of it.

After listening to Schertz this morning I went out and bought tickets to the final 4. Sure made them sound like All Americans. If they are half as good as he made them sound we will be pretty good.

Neutral Obviously you have to take the game.

This somewhat validates my opinion of him. I saw potential so must the Bonnie’s.

Little bit of both. He was in our rotation and has some range.

Thought he might have higher choices.

He is not coming back but I also remember him almost singlehandedly beating St. Joe there. A great show.

I am sort of with you on the physical defense but if they weren’t physical scores would all be in the 100’s. Players are that good at scoring. The plays I can’t stand is how they let bigs back down players in the paint. Why those bumps aren’t charges is beyond me ,but that’s how it’s called.

Getting back to the original point. Roy wants to use Endowment funds to support the athletic department. That is not going to happen.

You are not talking about a schools general endowment fund. One could endow a specific scholarship thru an athletic department for a special purpose. The great T Bone Pickens set up a special athletic fund at Oklahoma State but that was not part of the schools general endowment. That fund which used some creative funding ended up collapsing.

I will also add the university is potentially going to lose many millions of dollars in research grands due to DOGE. Finances at the university could become very tight.

Filling the team with a couple of players who will never see the floor makes no sense to me unless Schertz goes May and says these players can help. What happens to the walk-on's ? Are they out of a job? Give it up on the Endowment Fund. I guarantee you no university is using general Endowment money to support athletics.
