This is the kind of performance we come to expect from SLU - sadly.

Maybe Kentucky can hire him. Who cares. Just get him out of here.

Miami has as much money as anybody if money was the concern. Would make sense.

This whole season is just a sad waste of time. What's there to celebrate? We celebrate when Ford is gone. Party at humph's

I'm desperate.

Just do it. Fire CTF. 2-11 vs VCU. Fire fire fire.

Not my problem. I don't give a damn about Ford. He's also a millionaire old guy. Your posts are just bizarre.

The golf carts at the Olive garage are great. Not cheap to park but my dad gets in and out OK with that. There's also the handicap seats up around the concourse. Hope your old man gets in there to watch Mack or Schertz lead us back where we belong. Also said this year would be bad. This was a wasted year just like Crews' 4th year. The Pollyanna fuoks that think things will suddenly get better are a blight and a problem for any program. They will always drag you down into the dirt with them.

What are you talking about about? Ford is addicted to coaching basketball. He would take the Fontbonne job before hanging it up. He may end up at William & Mary or something next year.

Bonaventure looks like a bottom of the barrel OVC team. Where's brownindians to comment on this performance? Wow.

It didn't matter because he's too short. He also can't shoot.

Was he quick getting stuffed on that drive?

But he's not quick.

Honestly what do you see in him? I am really confused by it.

Hughes Jr is straight up on fire.

Medley is horrible. Good Lord. He needs to go somewhere else next year.

Seriously that would be great. The board could finally get over this handwringing and angst and this place will just be one happy camp hoping for the Billikens to pull some stuff out for our guys. A win in the PIG would be a good sendoff for THJ. Who knows maybe win more why not.

or he just gets fired Sunday and we all party and get ready for HargroveFest in Brooklyn.

Really like this point. One of the toughest things about supporting this program is that it can never be trusted to do the right thing with that "pollyanna" faction you describe. It gets really hard to root when you feel like every win could result in digging the hole SLU gets buried in. This program should be making the tournament on a regular basis - not whatever tf we have watched for 8 years now. Us keep Jim Crews for 4 years and not FIRING HIM after that third year disaster was emblematic of the kind of failures SLU has had repeatedly. There is no way in hell he should have had that fourth year.

Only CTF could have done what has been done to CTFs reputation. That said; not making the tourney last year was brutal. Yuri Collins for 4 years; zero tourney appearances. That team was hyped up; return of Perkins, Yuri, etc. .. he actually had some "workable" bigs he brought in as well to try and make a go for the dance. It did not work and we didn't even make the NIT with debacles like my SIUE Cougars on the schedule(which is probably still saving Barone's job to this day) .. Bringing in this recruiting class and having this cataclysmic failure(including the Carbondale Calamity of 2024; 101-62 never forget) has sealed the deal. I'm sure goofball incidents like BurnerGate and DalgerFamilyMacedoniaEmergency haven't helped; but here we are. We are here. Time for a new chapter.

I think we can win a PIG. Gdub and LaSalle are pretty bad. Hope the boys pull thru for Hargrove and give him at least 2 hours more of hoops.

With the changes to the portal and NIL players start dropping into it even before the Tourneys start. That's why it has changed from "back in the day" Have to be able to start courting players ASAP. At a real forward thinking school the donors will be in communications with the prospective coach to start talking to players they want before the hire even goes through. NIL consortiums CAN RECRUIT PLAYERS per the NCAA's loss to Tennessee this year.

"The Plan" is to get Swope and Avila on the court and trash Anthony Grant. I like "The Plan"

I don't know man -- some of the old Kiel Auditorium stories from The Balcony make me wonder. I hope you didn't take my bloodletting comment too literally(i mean some Chris Heinrich type play can probably get there, and that is fine by me) but we need to get that brutal competition back. Not Anthony Grant slapping Travis on the back or getting breakfast with Chris Mooney -- but Steve Alford getting tossed out of the game in the first half. Anthony Grant trying to attack former players on the baseline. Let's get back to that kind of rage and HATE.

We need the return of a team that gets PISSED about losing - not just sad, not just angry, but tear-apart-the-locker-room-and-break-things enraged. We need so badly to move on from this milquetoast era of hoops here. Old timer fans have to remember the old Kiel Auditorium - right? What happened to that atmosphere? We are just broken from watching CTF fumble and fail over and over again. We can make it happen again.
