Takes Hefferman long enough to get to the Kill comment .,.

Not exactly a ringing endorsement for the dean of the Valley. Kill must not be consulting with Ray Giacoletti and the rest of the MVC broadcasters.

Make no mistake, the heat is on. Keep digging Todd. Life is too short to tolerate bad basketball!

70%-80% of our property taxes are spent on public education. We are the biggest financial supporters. That will not change.

Gary Wilson is one of my all time favorite Salukis.  Please change your user name out of respect for those who wore the Saluki uniform with pride.

Posting not to argue, only to clarify:  Institutions of higher education in Illinois, like SIU, do not receive a dime from any property taxes in the State of Illinois.  Illinois public education units that are K-12 and Illinois community colleges derive funds from Illinois county property tax assessments.  So while your statement of "70-80% of our property taxes are spent on public education" is true, none of that funding supports anything at SIU. 

Now if you were addressing the annual Illinois State income tax we pay, that money does go to fund  SIU and every other institution of higher education in Illinois.  Ironically this statement even includes Chicago State!

You'd best be careful talking like this.  Correcting false information apparently isn't welcome on this website.

You sir/madam are correct. Thank you.

I'll call myself Clyde Frazier Wilson if I feel like it.  (Actually, I'd prefer Kent Williams Wilson).  I'm proud I married into the Wilson family.

Nothing is wrong with me.  At least nothing is wrong with me that a few days in the Caribbean wouldn't cure.  It's cold.

But thank you for reminding me know what I'm allowed to do, Dr Einstein.  I may be older than most of you, but I've still got my faculties.

So, If Hinson loses tonight. What type of presser do we get? A Eat you Cheetos Comment? Does he bash the fans and local media?

Why would he?

He is failing miserably, and everyone (including himself) knows it. He's out of excuses. In terms of his coaching reputation, he would have been better off getting canned last March, when he could have stuck to his injuries sob story and pretended he was going to do something big with his veteran team this year.

Come on guys if the arena had 8000 fans a night and donations were up Hinson would probably already be gone.  Common sense stuff here!  LOL

If I pay for something and the return is sub-par, I won't continue to pay for it. Slap whatever label on it (donations etc) to justify it however you like. Just tell me, where's the logic in lighting your hard-earned money on fire? We're going on more than a decade of bad basketball and people are fed up. Seems like simple cause and effect logic.

Some people don’t seem to understand how the system works 

From what I've been reading, you're at the front of that line of people who don't understand what is going on.

It is not a real good idea to insult me.

i will try to explain it in a way you understand though. 

You go to a restraunt and the food sucks. 

Do you keep going there hoping if they make enough money to hire a new chef? 

No you don’t you don’t go back until they hire a new chef.

 

hopefully that helps you understand  I don’t expect much from Notre Dame fans but this is pretty simple. 

Oh, so...

You walk into a restaurant, look around, tell the owner you want to be the manager with the exclusive right to hire and fire because you know better than him how to run the joint even though you have no experience in the restaurant business!

Yeah.  That makes sense.  Who was your logic instructor at SIU?  That's a class you shouldn't have blown off.  

Everyone is an expert on this website.

Even worse, you don't know how to run the restaurant but you go to a website bicker and complain about it because you feel entitled to run the restaurant.

If a restaurant misses reservations by an hour routinely, is losing money, and the food is always undercooked or burnt you don’t need to be a restauranteur to confidently say that restaurant is poorly run.  In your mind though to have any opinion on the restaurant I should keep giving it my business because if I stop going to it for having a bad product I can’t have any opinion on it anymore
