Re: Where do we go from here?

If you want to fire Drew for this season, I understand.

However, I think there is some revisionist history with respect to his accomplishments.

First and foremost, with respect to the 2022 team, he got that team to perform. Without Krutwig, the team could have been a complete flop. We replaced ...

Re: Where do we go from here?

I can not agree that his performance is close to horrible. Obviously, this year is horrible and 22-23 was bad.

However, with that said, we have finished 1, 2nd and 3rd in our conference over the last 4 years. We won the conference tournament when we finished second and made it to the NCAAs. He is ...

Re: Where do we go from here?

I am not willing to walk away from Drew Valentine. Up until this year, he was on pace to become our winningest coach, even with the first A10 year.

I am not sure what to make of this season. My feeling was that we were going to be good offensively this year. We were going to be giving up some on ...

Re: Where do we go from here?

This season has tanked Drew's winning percentage. It's still one of the best in team history. 6th in team history. Porter, Sullivan and Valentine are 4, 5 and 6th. Valentine is just ahead of Ireland. Historically, he is one of our best coaches. It is a mistake to discount his first year following ...

Re: Saint Louis Preview and Game Thread -- 2/13/2026

It has been a painful year to watch. It is a bad mix of players. The new players are some of the most talented players we have ever had - at least on paper. However, they play more like an AAU team. When Caleb Reese and Houinsou are on the floor - they seem dedicated to run the plays. The other ...
