Unfortunately for us the talent our coach recruits oftentimes is very much underused. I do not think that he can play a game based upon constant aggressive motion and constant attack. I can see basically more of the same for SLU next year.

sorry about the brown lettering that I sent you, oops

This years team may be the best sense the Nickolson/Adams era.

Reading the comments on your board about Olean and the Bonnies makes us all laugh! 

SBU has an Alumni base that is very strong an assists more than I can share with you. 

Stay Healthy

You know I wish you guys the best, even though I still hope we will beat you in our games.

thanks man.  appreciate the answer(s) and the fact that its here and not necessarily on our MBM page (message board morons).  Best of luck and good wishes.

At the end Coach takes to the team then, takes a knee and says the Lords Prayer with the team

I leave things like religion, race, politics and the like out of my basketball discussions.  I’m okay with that.  If it works for others, so be it.

It’s good to hear from you. Congratulations to your Bonnies. As Rick Majerus once said (after a close SLU home court win), “The Bonnies played a helluva game.” I’ll add to Rickma: Mark Schmidt coached a helluva game.

Good luck vs. VCU a week from today and in the NCAA Tourney.  If you can somehow get into the NCAA Tourney, go. There’s nothing like it when your team’s in it. 

I'm bringing my brown sweater to support the Bonnies in Brooklyn, unless the miracle happens, more so on our side, and we meet again on Sunday in the A10 Finals.

As I probably told you, I grew up in Quincy, IL, home of the then Quincy College, now Quincy University, a fellow Franciscan school like St. Bonaventure.  The QU Hawks play in the high D-2 level Great Lakes Valley Conference.  I also grew up in St. Francis Solanus Parish, the gothic Church which is across the street from the QC (now QU) Campus, which had the Franciscan Priests/Friars.  When I was an altar server from 6th through 8th grades, the Priests were Franciscans.  The Franciscan Priests also handed out our report cards.

I was previously told by a SLU Pep Band member that in a past A10 Tournament (I'm not sure if that is singular or plural), St. Bona asked and our SLU Pep Band allowed itself to be coopted as the St. Bona Band.  This must have been after SLU was eliminated, as usual.

Note BAB (me) put that latest "study" of endowments and free throw percentage in blue (denotes sarcasm) and to poke some fun at the whole issue, including at myself.

As for Dayton, if SLU has a rival, the biggest left in the A10 with SLU is Dayton.

Dayton is known by SLU fans as SVU (Sweater Vest U).

Dayton supporters think there is a vast Jesuit conspiracy against them, Dayton being a Marianist school.

NICE WIN! I hope the " Saint " schools meet in the finals. 

Thanks for your outline. If I told you who I am you probably would not believe me.

May the Peace and Love of our Lord Jesus Christ be with us all.

Hey good luck!  You know I've said nice things about ol' Schmitty .... he does more with less every year it seems.  And I do NOT expect to break the Bunnie jinx right now.  You beat Davidson or we lose to dogshite Duquesne and its all moot anyway.

Yes ------ great story.

Bad news ..... Ayeni now transferring too? 

The only thing I'll say is this......weight room talent does not make up for any lacking basketball talent.  Physiques are good (we got those too) but we couldn't throw it in the ocean from the pier last year.  We fixed that with grad transfers Isabell and Wiley and freshmen Jacobs and Gudmundsson.  It looks like we lost recruit Pearson.  Seems rumor is Chris Mack got in his ear and said he should play for Louisville.  But they seem to be sending him to prep school in WVa.  So time will tell. Also, rumor has it that Jacobs is having issues getting his ACT score. 

Schmdit does more with less ---I've said that all along.
