Watson is going to be a great fit for all programs. Wish him the best if luck. I'm sure he will represent all the people here well.

He seems to have had a good deal of success at St. Bonaventure. That and the fact that he played basketball in college makes me optimistic about the future of the basketball program, as well as athletics in general.

I graduated from St. Bonaventure prior to attending Loyola for graduate school. I know Steve and follow the Bonnies closely. He is classy, intelligent, and polished. If the powers that be allow him to do his job, Steve will shine on behalf of Loyola. It is bittersweet to me, as this is a huge loss for Bonas. Bona simply doesn't have the funds to keep a talent like Steve.

Well, it seems that we somehow landed on a credible AD. Has Loyola ever had an AD with previous D1 experience as an AD?

Hopefully now that the saga is over, B will be allowed back on Ramblermania!

I don't think we have ever had someone with previous experience.

Well, now, that is finally over--I trust one of the reasons it took soooooo long might be that they were looking for a long term stay guy !! I wish him all the good luck in the world !

GO RAMBLERS !!!
