Avila will be a billiken. Count on it. (And be pumped. The guy is awesome. He is more athletic than you realize.)

As long as we aren't the DePaul of the midwest..

Does anyone know the easiest way to watch the women's game this evening? It says it is on BTN+. Can I watch that if I have an ESPN plus subscription? Thanks for the help.

Maybe May does deserve AD of the year?

Root FOR ISU. (It is essentially rooting for our team. Plus TheOne says to root for ISU!) Also, TheOne is like SLU's version of Trilly imo

That was sure a stressful few hours...

The stl today article today has me uneasy.

May is going no where. Let's be real. Baseball is 15-1 currently. Softball is 12-8 (good, not great) Men's tennis is 9-2 Women's tennis is 10-0 Volleyball has a new coach that seems universally well liked. Women's basketball went to the NCAA tournament for the first time ever just last yesr under a new May hire. Men's soccer underperformed this year but is meeting or exceeding expectations overall. Women's soccer is in a golden age and continues to improve. Men's basketball stunk this year but won 20+ games from 2018-2023 - excluding covid year (not great but well above mediocre) Also the Champions Center is an impressive feat. To me it would seem dumb to fire May

I may be in the minority, but if we are worrying about days making a difference for hiring a new coach, wouldn't firing May delay the process significantly? Wouldn't we have to find a replacement for May before we could even look for a new coach? I assume it could take awhile to find a replacement for May considering SLU's history with making "timely" hires. Our wish list of coaches may be gone by then. Therefore, I'd be okay with keeping May if he hires the right guy.

This may be a stupid question, but does this imply our next coach will likely be DeVries or Schertz? Also, does this imply that May stays?

I'm afraid the completion of the Champions Center bought May some time in Pestello's view. Hope I'm wrong.

Agreed. This year has been a nightmare.

Well, that's a bummer. It's sure not easy being a billiken fan.

The problem is.... we will have no money left after we pay Ford's buyout. (AND.... very few people care about college baseball. Just being honest.)

Yuri was well known for crazy head down drives at the end of some games.

Maybe.... if we beat Dayton in the A10 Tournament who was a top 5 team that year with Obi Toppin. Odds of that happening were not likely.

I miss Majerus...

IF Jimerson returns next year, he should be SLU's all time leading scorer.*** However, I believe it is unlikely he returns as I doubt he would return if Ford is not the coach. ***I understand that his 6 seasons do not compare to every other player's 4 seasons of eligibility, but impressive nonetheless.

I did Say Brad AND Sincere.... But whatever... I'm happy to post something we all agree on... We aren't great now. Hopefully our trajectory is up for the remainder of the season and GO SLU!

Argue all you want, but they are second in Kenpom right now. (Their A-10 record may not be great, but their A-10 sample size is low) I agree with you that the results don't match the investment. I don't necessarily think we should keep Ford next year. Now is just an odd time to post this thread as the results of the past 2 games would be considered good in my opinion. Of course we want to win last night's game. but even a good top 25 team cant expect to win every away game vs a top 25 team with a great game day atmosphere. BTW the Dayton atmosphere was awesome last night. I wish we had that level of fan engagement honestly.
