I would honestly say Yes. It got more interaction to any other social media post from SLU basketball that I have seen since the Schertz hiring.

The athletic department was trying to hype up an announcement of new jerseys and make money. I have seen a ton of responses on social media holding them in high regard and most likely doing decent sales for the athletic department. It blows my mind how much people on this blog whine. As a long time enjoyer of the blog, it is making this place unbearable.

I think it's tone deaf that you thought us joining the big east right now was a realistic possibility.

Luckily Chris May has more than 2 months to figure out the logistics of the baby race.

Are we seriously complaining about the AD's handling of the baby race? C'mon man.

Maybe I'm buying too much into the coach speak, but I couldn't have more faith in Josh Schertz. The guy is an absolute basketball savant and is constantly learning and evolving. Just from the eye-test, the brand of basketball is so much prettier than it was any year under Ford. Players are constantly moving off the ball and the ball is moving fast. Robbie has been a shell of himself due to injury but he has shown flashes of greatness and I think more of those will come as he gets healthy. Watching the chemistry of Robbie and Swope in the 2 man game is special, they absolutely took over the end of the game last night as well as the game vs Umass Lowell. It is starting to come evident that Gibson is starting to build that chemistry with the two of them as well game by game. I think as the year progresses and we slowly get that chemistry built across the board, we will be an extremely dangerous team by the end of the year. There will be some road bumps along the way, but I trust Schertz and am willing to give him time to build his program. There's a reason that virtually every job opening went after Schertz last year and that he was able to build probably the best mid major team in the country at Indiana State.

Schertz said in the post game press conference that he isn't hurt.

No one cares

Am I the only one that was impressed with the billikens yesterday? The pieces and the style of play are clearly there to do great things this year. Without Robbie's injury, I am confident that we win that game vs a very good Santa Clara team. There's definitely things that need to be cleaned up, but that was expected with the number of newcomers and gelling to the new system. I was high on Schertz going into yesterday and I am still extremely high after yesterday. Need to get Robbie healthy, but if we do, this is a tournament team.

They’re shooting 34% from three, I think we forget that college teams can make 3 pointers

I feel like the vast majority of ankle injuries are non-contact…

We should have hired a worse coach so we’re not worried about him leaving.

We can’t focus on our guy leaving before he’s even coached a game.

Old guy - he was just on campus with the team like a month ago. Him and Ross brought the Saint Louis Shock out a closed door billikens practice. We should never question the loyalty of the Chaifetz's. They are genuinely the best thing to ever happen to this program and university.

I think they re-offered Walsh a couple weeks ago but I could be wrong

Who possibly cares enough to start a burner insider account? that has to be the lamest move in the world.

It's not that serious, great way to derail a good conversation though.

60th ranked high school recruit two years ago, love if we could tap into that potential. Fills a big gap on this team too. LFG.

Wow, I love these assistants. True basketball sickos. Breathe of fresh air.

I'm not celebrating until Schertz is in Saint Louis and has signed on the dotted line, but huge huge props to all the work that Chris May and the boosters have done to put us in position to land Schertz and fend off valiant efforts by Louisville and other major players to try to steal him from us.

We can all agree, SLU wasn’t the right fit for this kid last year but neither was creighton

I need Mack more than anything, he's in a league of his own above the other candidates.
