Wtf is it then Mike Shildt has been hired to wear the Billiken costume at home games. He's also going to give profane locker room speeches after big wins but will remind everyone to put away their phones first.

brianstl Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 From what I have heard this announcement is big facilities wise and is the kind of thing that helps when you make your case to the Big East. Adman likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what I was thinking. If it isn’t announcing a move to the BE then a major sports facilities upgrade may be the next best thing. That, or bringing back SLU football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slufan13 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 This project is one of the worst kept secrets at SLU right now. Making a formal announcement isn't just about informing alumni and the St Louis public. The Big East is targeted here too brianstl likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brighton Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Stu durando can't help himself sometimes. And if this ends up being a big ol nothing, then that will tell us that SLU is small time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARon Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I’ve heard rumors about what some at the university wanted to do regarding athletic facilities and could imagine things falling in to place if other midtown development rumor like TopGolf are about to happen.

Old guy Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Lets look at it this way, we will find out for sure next Tuesday. Whether or not there will be other announcements associated with the supposed facilities expansion, assuming that this is what they are planning to announce, will either come out coming Tuesday or soon thereafter. Yes, this may well be a combined announcement... or not. Rumors will likely go from the ying to the yang during this period of time. It will be what it will be.

Are you kidding? Haven't you noticed the AARP crowd that follows this team? And I include myself. We can all show up with our walkers and canes. The golf carts will be busy from the parking lot. They'll probably have oxygen available at the concession stands. That's why it's at 2 pm on a weekday. After the morning doctor appointments and before the Early Bird Specials at the All Ya Can Eat. At least they haven't asked everyone to bring their checkbooks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brighton Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Creighton guy knows his program wouldn’t be able to outspend SLU for recruits in the Midwestern market, so it’s understandable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this level, the checkbooks will come into play later on. I am pretty sure they are counting/hoping the announcement will loosen the purse strings of ALL potential donors. One thing to keep in mind, if they are announcing significant athletic facility expansion, they probably have already secured the required financial support pledges from big donors, they are not going to use the endowment for this purpose.
