  1. Bernie’s talking about last night right now. I hope he and the rest of the local media don’t let up.
  2. DePaul could be in the B10 and Moser wouldn’t go there. DePaul is where coaches that no one want finish out their careers.
  3. Don’t have to when they have The Family Arena to borrow from the town of St. Charles.
  4. Leave it to SLU to invent a new way to F themselves. Can’t fault Ford and his agent on this one.
  5. Fair enough, but the admin has been talking a good game and have lacked ambition to fulfill it since I became a fan in the late 80’s. Billiken Basketball should be one of the hottest tickets in a metro of three million folks that hasn’t had the NBA since 1968, but alas.
  6. Problem is, they’ve only had big time mouths. See Biondi and his proclamation of being a top 50 program.
  7. Yup. Which is what Lindenwood did and got excoriated by those who don’t get it. I’ll say it again, they’re a sleeping giant in the local college sports picture.
  8. The little engine that could took the #21 ranked team to the brink of defeat woo hoo ! 0-10 vs Top 25 opponents, 8th year at SLU, and 8-9 this season. With fans like MariaReynolds, this program with their resources and recruiting base in a metro of 3 million, is doomed to wallow in mediocrity because a group of ppl want to save up extra pennies on the dollar.
  9. Because you’re young. Not that there’s anything wrong with it.
  10. Well, quite sure he can no longer get worked up.
  11. That’s it ! I forgot about that, and then we tried to make the VT game look respectable than it was.
  12. Winless against AP Top 25 programs in 9 tries, no at large bids nor regular season championships. I fail to see anything good out of this.
  13. Rich Grawer wanted to succeed here, but at the end, he couldn’t take the program to where it needed to be. Spoon did. Jim Crews may have wanted to succeed too and had his heart in the right place. Guess what ? His coaching sucked. It happens. This is a results business. Division 1 basketball lest some of us forget. Like someone else said, the reaction from the fanbase is tame compared to other power and non power programs. Be glad you don’t belong to a fanbase that sent out death threats to the CFP committee before the national championship game.
  14. Or SIUE or both. They may lack longevity in D1 and media coverage, but at least they're working to be better.
  15. Then I hope they like a near empty Chaifetz Arena for the forseeable future,
  16. Speak for yourself. I would rather remain silent and walk away knowing the latter would happen.
  17. The fact that St. Bonaventure, a program that’s located in damn near Siberia with an endowment and resources that are much much less than SLU’s, is 10-3 and has had the same amount of success in the past decade should embarrass every single person in charge in Midtown.
  18. At this point, we should be greatful that anyone gives this wretched program tv time.
