Coverup is always worse than the scandal. Probably the best move Travis has made in a calendar year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is his supposed to do lie? - it already has been reported that it was his son. He had no choice for owning up to it so I am not ready to give him props for doing the only thing he could.

Twice he has said they started out the year pressing for 40 minutes…put this one in the “30 treys/game” category? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe one of the family said Travis was going to wipe his own ass with his 10,000,000 buyout. Thats about as personal as it got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of anonymous accounts troll Ford on SLU tweets and instagram. Son only targeted accounts that make cognitive arguments, backing up claims with statistical analysis. Myself included have never attacked Ford personally. That is silly. The son did make personal attacks. Ford handled this well. He knows how to control the media and the story. Just wish he could control a basketball team that well. He'd be one the best coaches in college ball. TaLBErt and AGB91 like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thunderdan Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 “He’s just a kid.” Also, I don’t give Ford credit for admitting it happened. He had no choice. It was painfully obvious. If there was plausible deniability, he would’ve skirted the issue. Unfortunately, his kid is such a bonehead that there was no other option. Just unreal. cheeseman likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing personal was said. Clearly his son felt he needed to defend his father, he went at people in DM and replies. We were smartened up to who it was and confirmed by another account. So we tweeted it out. Credit to Travis for acknowledging it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His dad knows how to hire a great agent, no doubt about it. I’m not kidding when I said I wanted Travis Ford’s agent to negotiate for me.

TRN Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 5 minutes ago, brianstl said: That and making fun of people for not making as much money as his dad. Right, talking about wiping his ass with $10M while the podcast guys can’t afford $10 McDonalds, nor a house. Very immature for a 19-20 year old but not surprised with the kid whose parents have made generational wealth. Really embarrassing for an experienced coach.

thunderdan Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 The Trump/Biden/NIL stuff can’t be something Lil’ Ford came up with on his own. That has to have come up in conversations at the house, which means CTF really believes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basebill123 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Important to highlight that he only admitted to the stone cold one being his son which makes more sense in this situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowboy II Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 -some notes and thoughts -Thank God for Royal Bank and Edward Jones to be loyal sponsors -A Fieldhouse commercial? That’s unreal -Said identity of the team was pressing for 40 minutes and injuries stopped this, should your identity be based on either offense or defense? -Rammer tee’d up the thought of Brad being involved from the start, I am calling BS, on Jan 12, 2023 the NCAA voted to make second time transfers sit out a year, on March 23, 2023 the NCAA sent a memo to schools dealing with the reasons a transfer waiver will be declined – false information is worse than no information - do they think we are stupid? -I am shocked they brought this up. 5.45 leaves the court to get to Humps for 6pm and Kunderman tells him on the walk to the car about the son on social media and his phone has blown up, son feels terrible, heart in the right place, he gets told about it , sticking up for his Dad, come to Humps Monday at 6pm to talk hoops -They have drills to avoid turnovers. Broke down every turnover in last 3 games, a lot of them against pressure and we need to slow down and set up your man. -StJ’s avgs 12 made 3’s a game--- from me it fits right into our defensive strength Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
