To be honest every player we've signed has been pretty much out of nowhere or low key prior to. If SLU comes up on a transfers big list, I just automatically assume it's not serious.
I really don't, I would like some precedent being set for these whiny a$$ college athletes to get struck down one time in court. They've had some reasonable lawsuits, but come on....
Recruiting vs signing is a different conversation here.
I think it's perfectly reasonable to create a recruiting relationship with a player pending eligibility litigation, if he gets it you can sign him. If you didn't build the relationship, you 100% cannot sign him. I certainly believe Josh Schertz has the forsight and vision to see this and I certainly believe his offer would be completely contingent on the result of the litigation.
He presided over two bottoming outs of the men’s basketball program, he wasted an entire decade of Billiken basketball. Not to mention millions of dollars in donor money.
A direct line can be drawn between a decade of failure and falling enrollment and budgetary crisis.
the champions center took a decade to get funded and built and was all but obsolete in todays college athletics climate by the time the ribbon was cut.
that’s the only argument I need.
No it's a reference to the women's soccer team. A few of the ladies started saying it ironically, and then it just kind of became a thing. I don't mind it, because of how it came about. I think it still has a thin layer of irony to it, which is fun.
