  1. You are correct on SEC info. Great insight. Vandy has so many scholarship advantages - make under 100k go free? So essentially he has 20 plus scholarships to 11 elsewhere as does Michigan now. Bottom line. Slu doesn’t care about any sports except Men’s basketball. If they aren’t embarrassed by Baseball after all these years then why would they start now. Old saying. If it’s important you find a way! All facilities are usually built w help from donor or lead gift. Chaifetz, Herman etc on and on and then named. But who would give money to this current regime? Slu has no one on board to raise money for anyone but basketball too.
  2. I am a travel ball parent, my sons have been all over the country. So, I’ve seen more ballparks than Crash Davis over the last 15 years or so with all of my kids. So when I say this I’m not trying to be a d$&k SLU is one of the most challenged D1 fields in the country. At A10 tournament years ago they had a tree house like press box, it was bizarre/funny as hell to say the least. It looked like something the little rascals built as a clubhouse. No covered roofing for hot summer days, spending 8 hrs plus at the field, no bathrooms, parking is so so, it’s a bad set up. Chaifetz is awesome. It’s like somebody owning a mansion in Frontenac with a couch on their front porch. Best way I can explain it, if anything you’d think somebody would think, first impressions are important? Especially baseball families who play during the summer, a lot of those kids go to college and pay a lot of tuition, two of my kids were good enough to play at SLU and they didn’t even consider it because they didn’t want to play in a facility below their high school field. It’s a real thing out there whether people agree or don’t. Just wanted to shed light on previous post. Thanks
  3. MCC has nicer fields than SLU. SLUH is getting turf all said and done over $1.5 million in renovations and field turf. How can leaders at slu walk by their field and not realize how bad it is, esp right next to the Chaifetz Arena? I know it’s all about money, but when high schools, D2, D3 and NAIA schools have better fields than a D1. Something isn’t right. At least turf whole field.
