These games are about whoever wants to get to spring break quicker

Even Moser is saying we should go for Schertz

It's hilarious that May said he wasn't going to talk about the coaching change.

I know many will frown at this but I'm definitely rooting for Rhodey tomorrow. They're absolutely awful though so maybe I need to become a Duquesne fan

Yeah May just said he's gone without saying it. I wonder if it was intentional or a slip up.

Go Rhodey

Does Chris May see how easy it is to just say something generic and put everything to rest? Why does this take him so long every time. Now we wait a day or two and move on. And he basically said he's fired.

I think Schertz is the perfect upwards trajectory guy who still has someone D1 success.

Agree. I'm honestly not super high on Moser but obviously he's solid too as is Devries. Beyond that...yikes

Yeah kind of my concern with the idea of "don't be worried about the timing" is that you can pretty easily be f*cked in the current era if you don't get the timing right.

Yeah each of those dates was too late in that era. I can't even imagine waiting until the end of the month in the current era. History says we should be worried but I'm hoping we get this one right.

Yeah for whatever reason they decided to let Ford see out the rest of the year. It's no big deal really other than the typical SLU mindset of not being proactive. The real key will be if we go to bed the night our season ends and he is still employed. Because at that point you'll just be paying him to do nothing. Hell you'll be paying him to recruit kids to whatever his next school is.

I think all of us on here know that. The question is whether the administration/boosters/decision makers know that. There hasn't been a great display of understanding the current situation over the past few years.

Can you imagine how bad it would be if SLU/Ford have similar language and we are forced to hold onto Ford until April 1st?

I think as long as we have a coach working the portal and NIL within the next 2 weeks, we are good. Anything beyond that is our administration not understanding the current environment. But the ideal situation is to fire Ford today. Hire Schertz Sunday evening when ISU gets snubbed and then start selling the Avila SLU jerseys a week from today.

I definitely think that is possible. I 99% believe Ford already has been told his fate. As far as SLU goes, I'm not sure they're as close to a candidate as they should be.

Yeah same. And too many people on here/Twitter act like it doesn't matter when you fire Ford if your next coach is still coaching. You can come to a verbal agreement with him any time. It happens all the time at proactive schools. Get Ford out of the way and focus solely on the next move. Hell it even lets Ford focus solely on his next move which SLU should encourage considering if he gets another job, that reduces the buyout.

Schertz or bust It's time to make a move. Fire Ford. Come to an agreement with the next coach even if he's still coaching.

Hochman also indicates a decision could come today

He makes the offense go. It's a great system but you need a 5 man like him to make it work even when he doesn't have a great individual game

Trilly said this morning that his source said it still may happen today or it'll be tomorrow

BenFred says May is addressing Fords future tomorrow. This feels like a situation where May just wants to appear in charge
