-I guess they think their position has the dollars/great job/swag to overcome what a poor firing process will mean to an incoming coach

In a random piece of Billikens.com trivia, one of highest search engine traffic terms was something like "NIT Selection Show." One year, when were clearly not making the tournament but had a viable shot at the NIT we had a thread that discussed the NIT for at least a week before the NIT was picked - so search engines had time to index the thread.
After the NCAA selection show, everyone Googled NIT Selection Show and Billikens.com was the first hit.
-so you monetized this and that's how you bought your estate on Jupiter Island next to Tiger's?
-
-why have the other schools/teams be able to say "your name wasn't said on SS"?
-
-I saw a bit of many games on Saturday, one Vitale was doing and he said something about Richard Pitino being out at Minnesota, searching a Twin Cities paper has a headline that there are "plenty of candidates for Gophers job with Richard Pitino on the way out" - so it hasn't happened yet but seems to be an opening there on the way

The committee in the last few years has taken a "What did they try to do" approach with scheduling. Teams that went on the road and got bought, tried to schedule up, etc. were looked more highly upon than teams that played a lot of 250+ NET/RPI or D2 type games. I think that bodes well for SLU.
I also think that mentality will be furthered this year in a time when teams could have packed it in and not bothered to play. SLU playing an extra game this week would help in that matter.
-interesting, can you share examples? I think that scheduling, heck every decision, is designed to help the P5 and this would be one that didn't

It has been stated in other threads but allowing VCU to play on their home court when the Robbins is available is inexcusable.
-yep

-not sure how the A10 is criticized for member teams, including our own, going on extended Covid pauses causing conf games to be missed

Refs have fallen in love with calling the touch, or phantom, foul on the three point shooter. Mass makes another one, and it's 49-31.
-given our penchant for fouling 3pt shooters I hope the stripes get all of these calls out of their whistles today

New interest, courtesy of @brianstl:
Zek Montgomery - G/F, 6-7, 185 - Louisville, KY (St. Louis Christian Academy, MO) - Twitter: @MontgomeryZek
Offers: La Salle, Ball State.Interest: Saint Louis, Florida State, Virginia Tech, Northwestern, Penn State, Iowa State, Memphis, Tulsa, New Mexico, Wyoming, Air Force, Murray State, Morehead State, SIU-Carbondale, Illinois State, Western Kentucky, Charlotte, Marshall, Toledo, Central Michigan, Eastern Michigan, Northern Kentucky, Youngstown State, IUPUI, East Tennessee State, Georgia State, Southeastern Louisiana, North Dakota State, Niagara, UMass-Lowell, Lipscomb, Liberty.
Latest News: Montgomery has new interest from SLU. (3/4/21)
Scouting Report: Montgomery is a versatile guard/forward who scores on three levels and shows up in big games and big moments. He can defend almost anyone and is a strong rebounder at both ends. He runs the floor well, handles it in transition and the half court, and can finish in traffic. He's consistent from the mid-range and perimeter. He's unselfish, and a deceptively good passer. He transferred Fern Creek HS in Louisville to Nela Prep in CA in fall 2020, but transferred in December to STLCA, where he normally plays as a guard.
-He's always had high-level athleticism but is a late bloomer in terms of putting together a more complete skill set. His offers are all from HS and might be stale at this point. He has a fresh offer from a JUCO and a ton of high-level interest, but coaches seem to be holding out on offers for now. He's been awesome for STLCA in The Grind Session. Huge numbers.
-hopefully the kid has interest as sounds good from this and the STLCA coach doesn't get in the way

Why does VCU get to play at home but Richmond does not?
-makes no sense, unless someone is being protected by the league
-
-I like a game just stay sharp, finding the right dance partner is the issue
-Stu said on Frank's show yesterday if we are in the championship game then we won't play an extra game

Who guards Funk?
-I had thoughts of Markhi but who knows where he is? yes, I realize he has played 51 minutes so far this season
-
-thread title doesn't encourage clicks
-
-
-so if a media person voted JGood to be 3rd team I would like to know the 10 players on that ballot ahead of him, makes no sense at all
-
-I guess the idea of not playing the extra if in the Championship game indicates CFord & Co think we are in when we get there and don't want to risk a loss, I think an extra game could be beneficial with the gap between playing, but we have some experience this season with gaps between games
-
-I do like the new look of the stats on the ribbon board, kudos for that, hope it stays or, if possible, improves
-
-something thing to watch and enjoy is the look of pure joy/happiness/whatever on Fred's face after making a 3

-thanks for the summary, I listened and it got past me until CFord mentioned it that we played 3 games in 6 days so if we didn't get the double bye it would have been 4 games in 6 days, perhaps that would have turned out differently
-I understand why he didn't but when CFord said he didn't coach a good game it would have probably been too much for Rammer to have him explain
-there will be a show next week
-CStone was very good as well, women have the 3 seed, I looked but didn't see, is that the high mark for the program?
