He needs to make NCAA first. Plus the schedule they’ve played so far Chaminade HS would probably have similar record as SLU currently does, I’m kidding but you get my point. Schedule has been terrible. Can’t wait to see what we really are in conference.

Never forget, if this bozo would’ve had his way Kevin Kalish would’ve never been hired at SLU. Now he’s totally on the bandwagon and his #1 fan! I love it! Go Bills!

How about we worry about getting a baseball schedule released instead of playing on a fan message board. Harris Stowe and every JUCO program has released their schedules. Stop the goofy podcasts, stop photo bombing men’s soccer team after a big win like you’re Pep Guardiola too, no serious ADs do any of this, it’s about the students and coaches not the admins….so an employee playing on message board from his department tracks. God help Katie Shields.

IF people in that department really thought they were doing a good job, they wouldn’t care about a fan message board….tells you all you need to know. I’ve heard May reads the board nonstop. Again, he’s the biggest wiener in town folks.

Love Coach Shields. I do not love the admins “supporting” her and do not feel confident about them being able to evolve/grow program and generate the resources Katie Shields deserves and has 10000% earned. With May and Oberle I just don’t want Shields’ program to stall out. They seem happy in every sport to just make it in and not take that next step. Across the board. Oberle was a coach for Champiom from the beginning. She oversaw the dumpster fire which was women’s soccer before Sheilds. Also, Katie Shields was not Mays first choice to be head coach and SLU totally lucked out with her. So that’s why I’m concerned longterm.

Vince Gentile and Chris Allen got all the big recruits for this program. Also for a couple consecutive years Chris Allen was offered head coaching jobs and rumor has it May black balled him, sabotaging his chances so SLU could keep him in the fold. It’s all about Chris May and Chris Allen was their golden goose. Mays days might be dwindling anyway, Oberle has campus fooled with her act and soccer public knows her real story, but she is protected by friends on campus. Just ask anybody who went to high school with her and her buddy Tim Champion, SLU women’s soccer first coach and you’ll start to get the picture. Birds of a feather ruin athletics departments together. I love Katie Shields but she does have to take next step, just winning A10 and getting in only goes so far. Not to take anything away from her success but it’s not as black and white as everyone thinks it is.

Katie Shields will never leave SLU with Oberle protecting and championing her sport while the rest of the department dies on the vine like volleyball and now baseball. People don’t realize how big of deal it is. But it’s typical because admins at slu can only do or focus on one thing at a time historically. What’s going to hurt Shields is not having a local assistant coach who can collect the talent. That’s where potentially this whole deal might be the most compromised. As far as losing out on big recruits, there are plenty of stories circulating around town as to why certain players did not commit, I can’t comment on any of that but do understand local people are talking, especially the 27-29 class recruits. We shall see.

Does anyone know what the plan for this program is moving forward? Locally it seems word has spread amongst club team parents about how dysfunctional program is internally and SLU lost one very good recruit to Lindenwood of all places because the young lady wanted to stay home and play D1. With all the local talent in St. Louis it’s damn near impossible for this program to be as bad as it is right now. I guess just keep doing the same things and expecting a different result next season? That sounds about right.

This is the dope who hired McGinty over Kevin Kalish years and years ago. AND the same dope who tried to hire anybody BUT Kevin Kalish, until finally Jim Kavanaugh told him directly hire Kalish. I just want everyone not to forget this fact as we go along on this run. May is still the same moron he’s always been and it’s too late to rewrite history now that he’s on the bandwagon and all about men’s soccer. I hope it kills May inside every time he has to praise this program knowing he never wanted this coach. It’d be funny if it wasn’t 100% true. I think Kalish and his coaches are incredible and thank god for Jim Kavanaugh stepping in when he did! Go Bills!!!!

I’m very happy and very surprised Katie Shields is still at SLU. With all the P4 openings and more resources she runs the risk of getting stuck potentially down the road. P4 are getting all the bids, less seeding, case in point the secret weapon Janet Oberle couldn’t sway the NCAA this year. No offense but if that’s our inside admin at NCAA good grief. I just hope she is getting all the resources she needs that will allow her to keep building her program if she stays long term. It’s a total arms race now in every NCAA D1 sport.

So you are telling me Bonnie can upgrade their field and SLU in one of the biggest baseball towns literally in the world can’t? Didn’t Chris May promise big facility changes after SLU hosted first A10 in 2014 and 2017? And SLU was supposed to host in 2023 and that just was shelved. Chris May is the biggest liar and clown in town. If Dr. Feser falls for this act like Fred did he’s an even bigger dope. Place can’t and won’t ever be fixed. St. Bonaventure. lol

Joey Hawkins - MO State head coach Kevin Moulder - Murray State head coach Connor Gandossy - Minnesota recruiting coordinator Will Bradley - MLB hitting coach now with Tampa Bay Jason Early - St Louis Cardinals now Logan Moon - Illinois State Just a few of the coaches off Hendrickson’s coaching tree….. Chris May’s AD tree: ZERO assistants who worked under him that were or are currently ADs at other institutions after 18 years as the SLU AD. That’s an even more impressive body of work!

GOOD FOR HIM!

No signees on signing day with the interim coach….baseball assistant just left program last week….volleyball in 9th place after just a horrible start to semester over gym time, scholarships not being given out and now rumor around town is Katie Shields has a big offer on table from a P4 school. Not to even mention wbb, writing is totally on the wall there too with that coach and program, can see it coming a mile away. I really hope people are starting to see the picture here. Department should just be called SLU MBB and Soccer DEPT, the other sports are toast. It will be a miracle if baseball publishes their schedule before season. Place is in shambles.

Majerus got Lisa Stone the wbb job years ago….she built program up from the ashes. Just another example of a pure Chris May hire in action. Guy honestly has THE worst judgement ever. This team looks like it has no idea what’s going on at all.
