Hell of a game

Adams already shares a luxury suite with Stamos.

I normally don’t trust guys with two first names.

Both teams have suddenly gone cold

I actually feel for them. It has got to suck.

Buyout is probably closer to 50% of the total value of the the remaining years.

With the way the Billikens are efficiently operating now, it will be announced before Schertz gets to the microphone for his post game press conference.

Sycamore fans are not excited about SLU getting a potential $6 million buyout while they get $250K. Sycamore fans I know you hate us right now, but at least I'm still rooting for you guys tonight.

Better get yourself every penny you are entitled to in a buyout before you do that. You can't just screw yourself in this process, not in today's college basketball world.

Hmmmm

The agent for every coach out there isn't doing their job if they aren't calling their friends in the press to have their client connected to the Louisville job. You got to get your guy a raise at their current employer at a minimum.

Pretty good thread

I got a feeling we will know by tonight one way or another. I think Louisville has someone as their coach before we wake up tomorrow if it is Schertz or someone else. Their fans might torch the campus if they don't.

There are multiple programs that have shown no issue with hiring guys with NCAA violation history or character issues. None of them have wanted to touch Will Wade. It is probably a good thing if we follow their example.

This is where too often really good coaches screw up. They get to a big time program and stop recruiting the best players for their system. They give in to boosters and fans who are obsessed with winning the recruiting rankings. It was downfall of Weber at Illinois. If you got a system that brought you to that point, you got to stick with that system and the type of players that make that system work. Sure you tweak it here and there as needed, but you got to be true to what brought you there.

This

I'm was just happy to see they had a signed deal with Schertz in place instead of some kind of handshake agreement. I count that as progress and a win. Gives me some confidence that things are operating differently with this process.

If we get a huge buyout in this that would allow SLU to shift donor money that would have gone to cover Ford’s buyout to NIL. McCollum can build a winner year one with that kind of payroll.

I’m amazingly at peace with the whole situation and for some reason confident we will get a great coach.

If things fall apart, I would like to thank MO St. for screwing up stuff with McCollum.

Given who are sports fan trustees are, there really should be no excuse for SLU’s contract not to be rock solid with a big buyout. So Louisville better be ready to pay if they want to make this happen.

Then again, what do I know. Stress I don't need today.

Dude has an AOL email address. He is not to be taken seriously.
