ARon Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Why do we have to keep seeing all these arguments about how SLU is getting screwed by some supposedly powerful person or another (Pestello, May, Jones, Biden, Putin, AOC, Trump, the ghost of Harry Truman), when SLU has actually has less games postponed than most of our league and now most of the team won’t need to be tested for weeks?

Lando Griffin Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Not too look ahead but if that La Salle game is cancelled, they, right now, have a pretty big matchup against the Bonnie’s next weekend. That would be a huge win early in the year. If the Bonnie’s find stride maybe (hoping and praying) that may turn into a Q1 win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another week off wouldn’t be good. If the LaSalle game is a no go, they need to find something. So much for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Pelican Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I didn't know where else to ask this. Has there been any official comment on when to expect Linssen back? He was on the bench today, is he day to day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have a whole season in a bubble than this pp BS. hope coach can find a game replace latest 86'd one The prior posts that I responded to did not talk about a bubble. It was to move the team to FL and not play here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, if I’m SLU and the A-10 I say go take that non-con game and see if you can help yourselves and possibility the conference, b/c SLU beating LaSalle ain’t going to do it.

Lighten up Out of reactions, good post. I have a t-shirt that says, “I can explain it to you but I can’t understand it for you.” Pretty much sums up why dealing with conspiracy theorists is largely impossible.

RUBillsFan Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 As of now SLUs game vs LaSalle hasn’t been officially cancelled, right? ESPN app still shows it’s on. SLU can’t really schedule a replacement game until that one is officially cancelled or it is at least more complicated because it would have to be contingent on the LaSalle game not happening. That’s on the A10 for not calling the cancellation. 3star_recruit likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hearing that if you are left handed and your name is in the first half of the alphabet, you only need to quarantine 2 days, 4 hours and 46 minutes after you see someone with Covid. You don’t need to test negative but you do have to be able to say the alphabet backwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A10Ref Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 If I were slu, I would try to add anyone that wants to come to Chaifetz. Anyone. If a prospective team mandates a road game for us, stay away. We are about to play two very important road games (probably the most important back to back) - we don't need it to be a three game away stretch.

For that to happen, wouldn't they have to be much higher than they are now in the NET? How are they going to make any significant headway in NET while playing an A 10 Conference schedule with where all the A 10 teams are ranked so low today. Look at what happened to us. We beat Richmond and drop 2 places in the NET, going from 69 to 71. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We beat Richmond and drop 2 places in the NET, going from 69 to 71. There’s a lot of noise in those early season NET numbers so if the Bonnie’s stack some wins together it could happen. The Bonnie’s only have to get to 75 for that true road win to count as a Q1 win. Hope and Praying was included to cover myself bc it is a bit of a long shot!
