Maji Fan Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Hi just dropped in to say hi to the Billikens' fans. I am a Utah alum who also happened to grow up in Milwaukee around the time Majerus was coaching at Marquette; my parents are Marquette alums, and I went to Marquette High (one of Rick's first coaching gigs, slightly before my time, though). So I am a long-time Majerus fan, but not to say a Majerus apologist. There are, admittedly some things in his career, particularly near the end at Utah, where it seems his ego got him on the wrong side of the admin, some players and the NCAA. Check out the Completely Unauthorized Rick Majerus Site if you haven't already. I'll be gradually revamping it to have some more Billiken-friendly colors and content. During the time he was at ESPN there were some sections I wasn't keeping up, so I'll also try to prune some of the old Utah content. Good luck to the Billikens!

STLfan Posted April 28, 2007 Share Posted April 28, 2007 Nice site and welcome to the board. As I'm sure you can tell people are excited about hiring Majerus. Here is some info on our new arena which I'm sure helped us hire Rick. http://chaifetzarena.slu.edu/fact_sheet.pdf http://chaifetzarena.slu.edu/arena4.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maji Fan Posted April 30, 2007 Author Share Posted April 30, 2007 Thanks for the info, looks pretty cool. It seems that SLU is doing what Marquette has done, that is doing some of their own revitalization of the surrounding neighborhood. Maybe my wife and I will make a visit someday, we're about 8 hours southwest via I-44. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
