NashvilleBilliken Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I have never been so upset with my alma mater. The lack of criminal charges combined with the length of time to communicate the outcome reflect so poorly on the school. It is obvious that the school chose to take the cowardly approach. No one in their right mind would sit out the suspension....but at the same time SLU can claim they didn't kick them out. I always wanted my children to follow in my footsteps at SLU, but I just don't think I can promote that any longer. So incredibly disappointed...

The Valley Sucks Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 How could anyone think these suspensions are fair? The police have pretty much ruled no one broke the law. I am just stunned!!! Wish it was Hines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyser soze Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 the remaining team should agree to transfer en masse and force the university to forfeit all remaining games..... the university would get it hard from the A10, no concession sales, etc....

When asked if they women knew they were being photographed, he said, “I don’t know how they could not know pictures were being taken. It wasn’t a huge space. Nobody was hiding anything.” He said only one of the three women was actively participating in the investigation. It’s unclear whether the women also have legal representation.

brianstl Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 2 minutes ago, JohnnyJumpUp said: Essentially three players expelled and IF the fourth is Goodwin and his suspension is until the fall of 2019, he would be the only possible returning player of the bunch. He could sit out the remaining games this season and redshirt 18-19 and return as a sophomore in the fall of 2019. That being said, if I am him, I'm transferring asap and reshirting at another school. They might all get waivers to be eligible next season.

Didn't say he would, but he is the only one that could and miss minimal games, if the suspension info is accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Metzinger Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Goodwin has a large enough sample size on the collegiate level - next step is to recruit a retired local NBA scout or cross-checker to his defense team if he does sue SLU, it should also be for lost future earnings if this scout can say he'd have been a high draft pick. If this puts into jeopardy his basketball future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billiCAN Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I guess I will be in the minority on this thread but I go to SLU games because I like the game of basketball. As long as there are kids playing on the court, I will go to the games. My hope, every year, is that we will be playing in the post season but it isn't my expectation. This 'situation' is just another bump in the long rough road of being a SLU fan. Go Bills! Billsx3 and cgeldmacher like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old guy Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 OK, so we have a decision which is what everyone had been asking for. This decision is not something that will make anyone happy. It does look there were no winners in this mess. What about the girls? Even worse, it is not over yet, the door is open to appeals and I bet we will have them, so count upon more time to let the appeals percolate through the system.

If this is actually how things went down, This is bananas. With that said, its one side of the story. If there was shady business on SLU's end, we'll hear about it soon enough.
