Box and Won Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Looks like we've scheduled a two-year series with Loyola - this year in Chicago, next year in St. Louis. Road trip, anyone? http://loyolaramblers.cstv.com/sports/m-ba.../052406aaa.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Wisher Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Coincidence? We are recruiting at least a power forward and a point guard from Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slu72 Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 That thought immediately crossed my mind....but is it a deal closer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Box and Won Posted May 25, 2006 Author Share Posted May 25, 2006 It makes sense, but then again, playing them makes sense anyway - former conference foe, fellow Jebbie school, close proximity, etc. They had a solid season last year and return most of the same players. I think they're liking their chances to make the Big Dance for the first time in 20 years next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kshoe Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 not exactly the perfect time for a road trip. Should we start the 2006-07 schedule on the front page as we start to learn dates from other opponents? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecrewfinance Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 that trip is almost 6 hours, taking into account the nasty traffic and the pain in the butt that is driving to Loyola... that's unfortunate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billikenmetz Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 I like how Loyola advertises on the CTA in Chicago "4 Years of Lakefront Property -- Priceless." 4 years of Brad coaching SLU...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Box and Won Posted May 26, 2006 Author Share Posted May 26, 2006 Yeah, a game like that should really be played on a Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 It should, but come on, take off at lunch. I will be in the stands, and very vocal in my Billiken blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Box and Won Posted May 26, 2006 Author Share Posted May 26, 2006 I never said I wasn't going to be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billikenmetz Posted May 27, 2006 Share Posted May 27, 2006 I like how Loyola's arena is called the Gentile Center...good for us non-Jews out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
