SLUAvtr Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 3 hours ago, Pistol said: Is this a hint that we're going to be hit with a cease and desist letter? No Pete, you're good. As one of the people who helped do the masters on those albums, you're good to keep using Saints and Fired Up since you aren't making significant profit off of it. But, if the podcast starts making a bajillion dollars, we may have to talk! Or, if said occurs, I suppose y'all can just sponsor the next CD and we can call it even. 3 hours ago, Midtown Madness said: Here’s the better question, how can we better utilize the band and DJ together to make a unique arena atmosphere. A call and response or back and forth type bit. Like the band plays certain parts of the song and the DJ hits a record scratch and then the OG recording plays, then he scratches again and the band takes the song back over. Do I know if this is possible? No, do I think it sounds cool as hell. God damned right. 3 hours ago, BrettJollyComedyHour said: The Band recorded an album way back when (which you guys use for your podcast ) I think we'd be down to do it again to collaborate with the DJ. I actually REALLY like this idea, and I think it can be doable. Hopefully with more time to coordinate and gear up in rehearsal season, we can make this happen. The trick is, from what I heard, is the DJ dude is on loan from the Cardinals and it would be up to his availability to come to rehearsals with his spin deck to figure it all out.

AMDG-Unit Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 Regardless of SLU results, heard this weekend Ford is gone at season’s end. Per an assistant coach at another program I am personal friends with. He said the SLU assistants have been working their networks trying to land their next moves.

Titan M Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 You want the program to do well, yet change has to be made of the Coach. Do you root to have SLU make the dance?? Great SLU won today but its only delaying the inevitable… FWIW my vote is get to the dance and thank Ford on his way out. BTW - Be careful when the “Consultants” come in.

slu92 Posted March 13 Author Share Posted March 13 Is Frank Cusamano seriously being paid by Ford and May? Talk about a delusional, compromised “journalist.” I have no respect for the guy at all, lost all credibility. Give Ford NIL money because buyout is too high????? He’s a moron! It’s not even worth the time or effort listing all the reasons NOT to keep Ford, it’s sad and comical at this point. BUT if SLU keeps Ford and May…deserves everything they are gonna get. Place is seriously cursed if Ford stays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure about what was mentioned above, but the other day, Frank legit said something to this effect : ”If SLU does let Travis go, people should know that he’s a good guy. He’s done a lot of good things around St. Louis. He hasn’t done anything bad for the city. He hasn’t gotten a bunch of DUIs, he doesn’t beat his wife, he doesn’t mistreat his players…” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is most people get to see him spin losses using absolute nonsense. So you start to get this reputation as a liar or full of sh*t. Chris May, not a nice guy.

TheA_Bomb Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Listened to the segment. I like that Rammer acknowledged being close to the situation clouds one's objectivity. Also I agree with him, I'm not going to back peddle and be nice to Ford on the way out. Check my posts from 8 years ago, I thought he was the wrong choice. As for him being a nice guy? I don't really care. What I do know is that Travis Ford is completely full of sh#t and a complete fraud of a coach. He's been able to dupe multiple schools into thinking he can coach for years. I'll be glad when he's a footnote. As for Frank, I like the Leonard Little standard for STL Sports. If you're not Leonard Little you're alright. If we hire a guy whose name ends with a vowel Frank will be all in on SLU again. TRN likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRN Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 34 minutes ago, DeSmetBilliken said: He hasn’t gotten a bunch of DUIs, he doesn’t beat his wife, he doesn’t mistreat his players…” Frank has such a high barometer for coaches. If Ford didn’t play for Pitino / Kentucky or give him full access he’d be calling for a change. It’s a results driven business and Ford isn’t getting it done for $2.5M. Great work Frank.

OkieBilliken Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 The good news is Ford will be gone by tomorrow. The healing will begin. Frank is a good guy and has been overall very supportive of SLU, even before the Ford era I'm willing to forgive his over-the-top cheerleading of Ford. They are friends. If he isn't gone, then yeah....burn everything down (metaphorically) Adman likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The over the top Ford cheerleading is ridiculous and annoying, but at the end of the day, I want him talking about SLU. cgeldmacher, SLUMS81, 2010andBeyond and 1 other like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOSLU68 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 I liked Ford- second tier on best head coach after Majerus and Benington that we list to Michigan. Spoon was fun but couldn’t recruit or coach anything but wings and guards. Let us hope we can compete in A-10 the league got better this year and we don’t need Valley quality players or coaches. These densely populated areas are rich with basketball talent I don’t want to see regional state school talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
