If soccer, basketball gets pushed to spring will they play with baseball and softball and track???

Huh??? A10 Championships??? Are you serious?

Rinse and repeat. More of the same. Make all the excuses you want. Reality is, well reality. Mid-major program happy to get lucky every 5 years or so. Mediocre is the word.

Really? Are we watching the same program over the years? Hey at least I’ve been consistent and living in reality. What in TF’s coaching history makes you think he is going to be any different???? Seriously? That’s not called trolling if it’s true. Answer this one...IF a Creighton, a Xavier, a Villanova, a St. Mary’s head coaching job opened up today, would TF be on that top 5 list? Hell no! But good enough for SLU and he’s expected to be our savior??? Go ahead and call me a troll. I’ll take it as a compliment, keep drinking your free Billiken Club kool aid pregame with stale pretzels and cold ravs. Lol

And in 3....2....1.....go for Chris May talking about gpa, community service, great students, program better positioned more than ever, great energy around program, everything is great, Gino loves what Lisa Stone is building here, volleyball will be really good next year, women’s soccer is incredible, men’s soccer is on right path, Chaifetz that’s a decade old is best home court advantage in sports, best fans in college athletics....blah, blah, blah....reality....coach with 1 NCAA win, Crews has 2....no quad 1 wins....last in FT % in THE COUNTRY...millions of dollars spent on this current dumpster fire...hope it can be turned around but it’s seeming more like Groundhogs Day...

Terrible.

Volleyball was up to the usual, VCU game has become expected, that program is the definition of mediocrity. Women’s soccer will still get a champions parade for making tournament, but again bounced 1st round, your typical A10 team. Just happy to be there. MBB is better, BUT, today just proved this program is a long ways away. We still have Pat Summit, I mean Lisa Stone to prop up, hopefully another NIT this year! I know this post is negative, but the point I’m trying to make is, when is just getting by or just happy to be there not enough? It the same stuff over and over each year. I don’t know about anybody else but history repeats itself each year it seems. Especially considering all the money being spent relative to what other coaches did with less in the past! Mens soccer....not even worth bothering, its bombed out into the stone ages nationally. That coach is the captain of the Titanic.

It just keeps getting better and better. Look at Webster University new baseball facility. Also Priory is building a $6 million baseball complex. So Lindenwood, Maryville, Chaminade, SLUH, Priory, Edwardsville HS and College, Bayless HS, Vianney and now Webster University all have better facilities of some sort one way or another than D1 SLU. Embarrassing.

Maybe the AD can make some calls and get somebody big time like new tennis coach. I heard a rumor that his wish list includes the head coaches at Harris Stowe, Avila, Central Methodist, Webster University and U of Phoenix. I’m kidding none of those coaches would leave for slu now. The program is laughed at and looked down upon within the local volleyball community. If it wasn’t D1 the relevancy of the program might be even with JFK High School. I say give current coach a raise and 10 more years. At least he has a pulse which seems to be the only real criteria for being the slu volleyball coach.

Had all summer to hire a coach and William Woods is where you get your D1 tennis coach from in August? Where on Craigslist can one find the now hiring D1 coaches link? Asking for a friend! Wow. People put more effort and thought into ordering a pizza!

Wow that’s surprising! I was really hoping they were able to pry away the coach from DeVry University, Cappella or U of Phoenix.

Just another example of a D3 baseball program and their commitment to baseball.
