  1. Thanks almsman Shari will start Keytruda the end of this week.
  2. Thank you Steve...she found out last week the chemo did not completely work as planned so they are going to start a new drug that does gets commercial time on TV. She's a fighter and her family is hoping this drug will work!
  3. If my wife was not battling Stage 4 Cancer we'd surely head to Orlando to see her TN Vols play on Thursday. Unfortunately, her energy level is not up to the trip now so we'll watch the game on TV.
  4. Second what slu72 said...best of luck to Nick and hope he is successful at his new U!
  5. Extending Travis Ford at this point in he SLU tenure is lunacy and pure negligence. Most U's reward HC's for positive results. In Okie State's case T Boone bounced Ford after one losing season.
  6. As a college sports town you're right on...on game days Knoxville is a happening place to be.
  7. It's hilarious that the Travis Ford supporters (I call Lovers) keep forgetting that almost every pre-season National Prediction had SLU as a Top 25 team and sure NCAA Dance Partner. Then they jump all over people on this website who want more from the person who is responsible for coaching this team. So who is to blame for the failure this year if not him? Darn if it's not on him...has to be the players. To that I'd simply say who recruited the players? Some complain about the NET. Well there are other non-power 5 teams making the field this and frankly every year. I'd say grow some and figure out how to be good enough that NET is not a factor to get into the Tourney. In other words beat some good teams for a change, and for Cripes Sake Never lose to SIUE on your home floor with a double digit second half lead!
  8. Couldn't agree more with you on the city of Charleston...love it. Down south it is best known as Savannah on steroids!
  9. The A_Bomb...sorry to disappoint but I believe we are all entitled to have our own opinion on the NCAA Tourney games. I believe I gave an honest reason why I like them in the first game. Don't think they are going far this year; however, you can bet your sweet life that they will be in St. Louis trying to pick off any and all of the top rated players from now on. As a SLU fan I will be concerned as everyone on this website should be!
  10. I know it probably won't be pretty for the Lady Bills, even though I know the Lady Vols have some catching up to do with teams like South Carolina.
  11. And Hire a Mens Basketball HC which is her JOB!
  12. Cannot believe I'm saying this but go Tigers...never have rooted for them in Hoops, but their Lady AD appears to have hired a HC who at least appears to know what he is doing. NCAA Tourney in his initial season when no one really thought they had the talent to make it is an impressive start! This SLU fan is rather envious.
  13. From what I can tell unfortunately you are in the minority, but that's fine with me.
  14. I'm not worried about other leagues I'm worried about SLU and right thinking SLU fans know what the problem is with SLU (hint for those who don't...HC). Fix that problem ASAP...hope the next one is very good then we can think about NCAA Tourney Appearances!!!
  15. I have always loved watching the NCAA Tourney. While I like when SLU gets in the Tourney I can still have rooting interests. Besides UT our obvious rooting interest I always root for the Zags (the successful Jesuit U). Since I went to Augustinian Academy I enjoyed and rooted for Villanova when they were very successful. Agree with the sentiment NCAA Tourney time is like a hoops holiday for people who really enjoy college hoops. I don't get bent out of shape that the P-5 have the most teams and I do get a kick out of it when one of them gets upset by a small school as long as it's not UT.
  16. When it last expanded the Big East took Xavier and Butler and did not take SLU. With our lack of success under Travis Ford what would make one think now that the Big East is ready to invite SLU into their league? Perhaps some other league would be willing to take the Bills and frankly I do agree it is time to look around as the A-10 looks like it might continue to be a one team NCAA Tourney league and outside of Dayton is not much of a rivalry fit.
  17. Unfortunately, my SLU alma mater sucks a lot more than the Vols have for a number of years in mens hoops.
  18. Don't know Duff Man but have a hunch Frisco Area Billiken would feel Ford is Grawer 4.0 and would hope both he and May got raises and extensions!
  19. Conference started going downhill with the Butler and Xavier exits to the Big East. The pre-season darlings were both SLU and Dayton, and neither had impressive results and VCU left both teams in the rear view mirror. Both Dayton and SLU HC's should be on short leashes!
