Well ISU could get him somewhere around 8-10 over that range of time if you believe what most people "in the know" are hearing..So he'd really be turning down 4ish...That's still a lot of money..But consider he's probably got 3-4X the buyout on that deal compared to any one he would sign here?? I would argue he might be costing himself money down the road with this move...This group is ready made for a top 20-25 team next season.. You don't think he'd wouldn't be at the top of the list for IU or Villanova next year if that happens?? With the move to STL not only are you breaking up part of the group, but you also make yourself less attractive to other schools when that buyout is as high as it probably will be there..

I wont be bitter, Ill probably follow what he does slightly less than what I did when Miles left (out of nowhere imo) for Georgia State. Ill look at scores and see how his rebuild goes and wonder how long he will be there. I even looked to see where GL went and how that worked out. I dont think I've ever cared how any college basketball team did that wasnt an underdog in the NCAA tournament. Id hate to see many of our players go with him but if they dont want to be here then I wont care much more than seeing where they end up and maybe an occasional stat check like I did with Laravia and Key. I didnt even remember Williams played here until someone pointed it out to me. I wish everyone well and will easily move on. Id point out to all the bandwagoneers that we didnt break 4,500 fans until the team was 13-3 with losses to 3 NCAA tournament teams. For anyone thinking the administration hasnt done anything, what do you think they do all day. Do you think they wake up today and are like "what the fuck? He might leave?" Give me a break. Anyone good is always looking at potential changes. You can lose a great coach for way more reasons than them leaving. crazy shit happens all the time. On to baseball.

What an emotional roller coaster. Last night was an absolute heartbreaker. The past 3 games have been an awesome experience to witness in person, and the team has been a blast to watch all year. It was pretty cool to essentially have the entire college basketball world watching our Sycamores last night albeit with a different outcome than we all wanted.
The loss of Schertz hurts. Especially to a program like SLU. Had he gone to a reputable program, I could live with that. Money aside, it still boggles my mind why someone would leave our program now, given the success and support it’s currently receiving. If SLU is where he intends to hang his hat, fine, however I don’t see that being the case. That move just doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. Maybe it is all about the money at the end of the day.
I am so proud of our alumni, fans, and particularly the Terre Haute community for rallying around this program. I never thought it would be possible to sell out an arena as many times as we did this season. It is proof that you can win here and build a successful program.
I really hope the next administration comprehends how important athletics are to the university. I pray that the Schertz departure doesn’t mean a return to the status quo mediocrity we’ve witnessed for decades. We’ve got to capitalize on this momentum and continue to fund and support our successful athletic programs moving forward, particularly basketball, baseball, track & field, and cross country. I think it’s time the university had realistic discussion about moving forward without a football program.

I own this. That was a pretty rude and arrogant response I made.

Your good!
Some people on this page don’t know the fake or false rumors they spread that gets the boys in big trouble!
That’s why this page needed better policy on stories and facts and fans who know what they are talking about
Such as? Please, indulge me.

We are all in our feelings. Us fans have experienced a hell of a rollercoaster ride filled with so many emotions. Can’t take anything any one of us are saying right now to heart.

I will personally be in a meeting on Tuesday about this... Help is on the way. They are working to improve this with a couple people and businesses locally.
I would volunteer time to help if needed, please let me know. Didn’t know who to really ask
Does anyone else find his wording very interesting? Or just completely tone deaf?
You can't call it "OUR" if you shit on us and leave in the next 24/48 hours for SLU - like it's no longer OUR at that point. So either it's cryptic like this entire thing has been and you are staying or you just talk too damn much and say a lot of shit that is mind boggling.
This is the sort of stuff that has me spun out... Not mad. Not angry. Not anything like that - just completely spun out.

Not that it means much, but coach is still in Indy right now and my son’s teacher just took a picture with him and he has an ISU 1/4 zip on. I mean you’re wearing that around and announcing another team today?
Nope. Word choice and details matter.
This is a complete and total lack of emotional intelligence.

I appreciate that. We are all in this together. You just have a doom and gloom outlook most of the time. Us mid-majors have a tough hill to climb as it is and we have PLENTY of outside noise telling us we aren't good enough. We really need to change the culture that we are good enough, we do belong, etc. It starts with people like us spreading the word. Go Sycamores!

was this coach's wording or jmv?
He can’t please everyone and I imagine that is what he’s trying to do. This is one of the downsides to Twitter/social media especially when he is as active as he is.

I going with spewing hypocritical bullshit trying to keep the heat off his ass till he can gather his things and get out of town.
It was posted two weeks ago on the SLU chatboard that SLU hired a realtor to assist Schertz with the move. could be BS, but where there is smoke there is fire.
