Yes, I am now guilty of prolonging TrollPant's time in the spotlight. But I have already put he/she/it on Ignore, so please follow the lead. I never wanted to be soccer manager at SLU. Factually reportedly? Post a link to that factual report. I am sure whoever posts on the stltoday site would welcome whoever posts on Billikens.com to pot there as well. I assume most don't have the courage to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not part of the athletic department. my guess is you aren't either. Unless fans are part of the organization or on the team - you really shouldn't use we. You are not part of the team just because you are a fan. ACE? You never responded to this. Do you agree or disagree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just removed ***.ing from my sentence. Anyway. Maybe the big East wanted to add slu but couldn't find a viable 12th team so they stuck with an even 10 It even removed @nus from one of mine, but rectum was allowed.

Rick Majerus is unfortunately not alive.You don't know if he had stayed alive if an invitation would be forthcoming. When was the last time they even expanded? It has been awhile right? The problem is that SLU just gave up recruiting. Is that what a big time college basketball programs do? Mashed Potatoes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before I bought them, I tweeted at Clay Travis, who said the blue is the UK color. I'll add that the blue pants I received are close to the blue SLU items I have. Also, to clarify, the light blue might be more of a reference to Ole Miss than UNC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does not need to find it, he can have it made bespoke (custom tailored) just by going to Brooks talking to their tailors and choosing the cloth in the exact color he wants it. Which is probably what he did to get the Jacket in the OSU color. When you make his kind of salary you do not need to find the things you want.

slu72 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Agree w/Irishdawg's take on what it's going to take to get to the Beast. Right now they'd look to the A10 for expansion and their top choices would be Dayton (unless X makes a stink) and VCU {which strays from their private school identity). Still, I think they have to think about the logistics for the non revenue sports. The Beast is totally dependent upon hoops for providing their athletic departments with the funds to operate. The breakdown right now is as follows then add in most likely candidates: East GU, Prov, St. J, Nova, SH, ...... add VCU Mid West X, MU, DU, Butler, Creighton ..... add DU So if they add VCU and Dayton they have balance to have two divisions. Overall a good move for them. Not a good move for SLU since DU would be the major obstacle for us, and we're not likely to beat out the SVU's from any aspect. They have the facilities, history, rabid fan base that travels, probably better TV revenues than we've got. Point being if Beast expands we've got to step up big time, which I think was on May's mind when he hired Travis, and his hope the Beast expands to 14 teams. Right now, I don't think we're on the Beast's radar, if they only go to 12 teams. There's just no way to justify SLU from a financial or competitive standpoint. Might have been different had we got someone other than Crews to keep Rick's momentum going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeniceMenace Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Big East: SLU is in a way bigger better TV market ($$$) than Dayton or VCU...and definitely on the upswing with the change in leadership for president (politically) and head coach (competitively). JGood taking everyone to the promised land. As for the PA announcer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetorch Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I doubt X would agree to be in a division with only Western schools. Their footprint is in the East. If the conference had an unbalanced schedule with divisions Xavier wouldn't agree to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what the antiquated NCAA rules say about a coach providing refreshments, meals, etc. at his home. Can the coach even provide transportation for the players to his abode?
