    Charleston nine months later....

    Is it true that C.E. Maggio sprained his ankle in front of the hip College GameDay/Peloton broad? Word out of Bristol, CT is he tripped over his own pecker.

    Just beat Longwood (that’s what she said).

    I had the same reaction. The more obvious new guys will be very impactful, but Brown’s defensive/rebounding presence off the bench is going to be a huge upgrade from Mellouk. It can’t be overstated how much our defense fell off a cliff when Venning had to come out of games. That should be vastly...

    Conference Realignment

    If this CoC stuff has any legs, I wouldn’t expect anything formally announced until May or so. The CAA is notoriously punitive with its departing schools. Typically, they are barred from conference championships in all sports. No chance Charleston misses out on a chance for an NCAA auto bid with...

    It isn’t that it’s bad, but that’s it’s in a state of stagnation now. I’m not sure if people are tapped out or if they whiffed on a few bigger fish they thought they’d have to put things across the finish line.

    Oh, the 12 Angry Men jury box will still be there. It’s one of the most harebrained concoctions I’ve seen at SBU. Between that, the barely visible A10 Fathead wall stickers, the banner situation, and the lagging fundraising, the decision makers in athletics are leaving a ton to be desired.

    Nope. No real complaints for the first time in years. Solid schedule for us.

    This is a consistent issue at SBU. Competing fundraising efforts simultaneously. I’ve even been told some of the upper echelon (see: BoT; President) types have actually told athletics they can’t contact certain donors (many of whom would be happy to donate to athletics) because they want those...

    Exactly. We aren't going to be out there poaching players. It's all about keeping our own guys once they display real A10 chops.

    I know for a fact Manhertz has asked some of the athletics employees for their ideas with this stuff, so that’s what got Unfurled and I moving in earnest with these ideas. He did an outstanding job bringing our spitballing to life. The school is definitely working toward a big RC/athletics...

    Look for some renderings released by SBUnfurled today. They will include these ideas and more.

    Incorrect. They also retired Hollis, Belcher, and Sanders very recently. Additionally, I hope the interior decorating snark can find a permanent home up your urethra.

    Kenville’s number isn’t officially retired. It’s just up there in the rafters for some reason. Well, the reason is that the BoT chair married into the family and made it happen.

    I was there at that time, too, and this still pisses me off. It’s a microcosm of some bigger issues.

    There are ways to do this that don't include putting names/numbers in the rafters with generation-transcending legends like Bob Lanier and Tom Stith. As '85 said, this is the purpose of a HOF. If someone needs more than that, then we have plenty of wall space in the hallways for murals...

    That is exactly what’s happening here. Why is Bill Kenville in the rafters? Ask BoT chair Mike Hickey (don’t get me started), who married into the Kenville family. It’s a total joke and trivializes the honor for guys like Lanier and Stith (who should be the only players in any sport whose...

    “Yes, everyone. This is an excellent idea. Sue Shay, with 53 wins and zero postseasons in four years as a player, absolutely belongs in the rafters with Bob Lanier and Tom Stith, who were 1st team All-Americans, members of program-defining teams who made deep NCAA runs, and the 1st and 2nd...

    It’s amazing… Schmidt continues to churn out the “deepest” roster year over year! Where’s the Final Four banner to corroborate such a concept?!?
