  1. I was an events staff guy under Terry Elmore for four years and the baseball student-manager for two of those years, so I figured I'd have a legit shot anyway. I'd rather stay in St. Louis than relocate to Chicago, which might be an option for me in the coming weeks.

  2. There was a consensus on the board that if SLU were to play the likes of UNC, Duke, Texas, even a BC or Georgetown, that we'd play at the Scott or even the Dome. I'd say hell no to that, simply because the number of fairweather UNC fans that showed up back in December. Play 'em at the Fetz, have the students eat up all the seats they can and leave the Dookies and Poplar Bluff Chapter of UNC Fairweather fans in the cold.

  3. Notre Dame football players stay on campus all summer and work out at Notre Dame's brand new football complex or the Loftus Center. They really don't need to go anywhere else. I wish I could say the same for our teams. ND Football employs a small army of weight trainers and speed coaches.

  4. I bet the former LSU coach gets the job. Illinois is craving controversy right now. Just look at the recruiting scams Ron Zook is involved in. Illinois is the laughing stock of the Big Ten Football scene and all of a sudden they get a top-5 recruiting class? Somehow that doesn't add up. Zook might be a great recruiter, but when Arellious Benn choses U of I over Notre Dame, red flags should have gone up.

  5. Guys I know that this has been a trying time for our little slice of heaven we like to call SLU basketball, but when the next coach is made known and there is a press conference, I would like as many of our posters to make it to West Pine to try to make it.

    For one thing, I will be there, and I would like to meet some of you guys and chew the fat and try to move forward in this exciting new era of Saint Louis basketball. I know most of you, well probably all of you, have disagreed with me, wanted to kill me, or wanted to hire someone to kill me, and I admit that it was kind of fun getting under your skin.

    But I'd like to apologize for that and make amends by making myself available whenever the press conference is afterwards around West Pine. Leave the handguns at home. I just want to put some names to faces. Thanks guys,

    Metz

  6. very fitting. no doubt a fine piece of work from our own Matt Krob, graphic design guru down in Media Relations.

    Hope the Hokies are healing. Alliteration aside, does anyone know if the Vick brothers are doing anything to help out? It seems that with all the Pac Man Jones' in the world, there aren't any decent men in the National Football League. The United Way commercials don't break the skin on how few philanthropic efforts are being undertaken by these men who make millions upon millions of dollars playing a game. It's sad.
