Worst Team in the Big East

[SOpirate]

Officially bottom of the barrel. Probably the worst team in all the power conferences.

How can anyone argue that there doesn’t need to be some sort of change within the current regime? Everyone saw what NIL was going to become, yet it took the school and the AD years to get serious about it. Now we are feeling the consequences.

And we’re supposed to trust that Felt, Lyons, and McBride are the brain trust to get us out of this mess? Insanity is repeating the same process and expecting different results.

I agree and I can’t believe we’re having discussions on who to keep for next year. Outside of 2-3 guys they can all go or maybe stay for free

Typically the ones that got you here aren’t the ones to lead you out, but I’d be surprised if all the personal relationships there made any major changes.

They either didn’t recognize what was coming or were inept at handling it. So what changes?

I think the whole team can just stay at depaul. Don’t come back.

I think in the NIL era our ceiling is Shas first season (17-16, 10-10). Maybe we win the Big East tournament once every 25 years and go to the dance (which will be the Big 10, Big 12, SEC tournament soon enough). The good days are over.

Gett ready for an 0 fer for the rest of the season-----

Tht was nearly our ceiling before NIL….

I fear that ineptitude is the more likely answer. We keep hearing about all of the “progress” SHU is making in NIL yet the gap between us and the rest of major college sports only gets wider.

Maybe we’re destined to be relegated to laughing stock status no matter who calls the shots, but there’s no harm in making a change at this point.

Really? We have been a perennial top 40 and NCAA tournament team the last decade.

 

[SHUSA]

this is unfortunately what we needed. it wont matter anyway. be as embarrassing as possible.

One of our two glory eras…. Not much besides those was my point and more to your statement of mediocrity

 

[Hall91]

Whoever has an ounce of leadership and really gives 2 sh!ts about SHU needs to step and make some hard decisions.

Seems like McBride is servicing no purpose right now, so eliminate the position and bring in a Business Development Sports Marketing Exec who is focused on all aspects of increasing revenues across all Marketing channels. Please decide between Pat Lyons or Bryan Felt as to who is the true AD and eliminate the other person’s position. PB needs to be rethought from just a traditional fund raising function and now be all about Revenue maximization across all channels. Get the right people in those positions.

Dont attend anymore games. No offense to the players but speak with your wallets......then they will act

I feel like the season ticket renewal request will hit our inboxes any day now. I just hope I’m not drinking anything when it hits so that I don’t have to buy clean up a mess.

Seems like that has mostly happened already.

I'm not sure what pat lyons position is but what's the point of Felt? Guy was a ticket salesman and got an AD job at the lowest level. Was only hired cause he is an alum.
