I guess it took the low major hiring your coach for you to see that.

2
I lost? Does this mean you don't want our coach anymore?

No way Clint is from Nac,

define small school? Are we talking campus acres or warm bodies? lol

430 acres and almost 13,000 students for the purple people while

Gonzaga has 7,400 students and 152 acres. We beat them by an entire township.

Geez, now you're just talking markets.

Now if will excuse me I have an app to go watch.

Sorry, I must disagree SFA is a peer and can stand with any of those programs.

Here is another guy who would disagree with you as well.



Give us time as we continue to grow. (Only been in Division I since 1987)

- On campus ESPN Studio (All home games on ESPN3)
- Weekly Coach Radio Show
- New state of the art court floor (only one in the country of its kind)
- New center 4 sided suspended video board (Installing later this year)
- Increase in season tickets sells
- Sold out games in a 7,200 seat arena

SFA in head to head has beaten VCU, Memphis, Marshall, (blew a 20 point lead on Tulane and 18 point lead on UAB) but can hang and beat any of those programs.

No, we are not a powerhouse on the national level, but to dismiss SFA as some subpar, nobody knows your name program is laughable.

But we are doing the best we can with a commitment to being the best which BU likes.

4 NCAA Tournaments since 2009 and you still have never heard of us?

I'll give you a hint, it is where Brad Underwood currently resides. lol

I don't think so, because SFA is the mid-major he wants to build, not go to another mid-major and do what he is already doing now.

No lateral moves here, power 5 or bust.

Like I said he has already been offered more money from other mid-majors and turned them down.

But if a power 5 offers him the keys, he goes. I think he would be at Iowa State right now had they offered last season.

11
No, I think he would leave SFA for KSU, (hello power 5 school, like I said) I never said he wouldn't. I'm addressing the comments of him going to a Tulane, or Marshall, or any other mid major over SFA.

I'll be a fan of his no matter where he goes.

12
Umm...SFA is the good mid-major job and BU is not going to leave for a Tulane, Marshall, etc. He already turned down more money in Marshall and Southern Mississippi two seasons ago.

No, it will take a power 5 conference for him to leave.

Remember Robert Hill (SFA AD) gave BU his first division one head coaching gig and BU is very grateful for that and BU is going to want to go to another program that is just as committed to winning as SFA is.

LSU
Memphis
OSU
Stanford
TCU

Take your pick...they will all come a calling.

* New court
* New scoreboards
* Deal with ESPN3 to broadcast all home games
* New campus sports broadcasting studio & control room
* 3 straight Conference Championships and 2 straight NCAA Tourney Appearances
* Deepest and most talented team yet in SFA history for 2015-16 Season 

Coach Underwood and AD ready to take the Lumberjacks to the next level.

Probably our last season to have coach Underwood, so have got to make it an attractive job.

Yes, $3 Million for upgrades for BB and FB

Instead of the existing video boards at each end of the court, SFA will construct a four-sided hanging board in the center.
It will be an entirely digital screen, allowing a portion of it to display statistics, but also permitting a true full-screen look during instant replays. The new screens will measure 16? by 11? and on top of camera upgrades (all video equipment will now be high-definition), the pixel quality should be vastly improved.
Court-side tables will also be furnished with LED displays that will show sponsorship messages and allow for a more enticing and graphically pleasing game day experience.


25
Actually the university's board just approved almost $50 million for a list of new stuff including the purchase of athletic video and scoring system upgrades from Daktronics so we will see.

Also hear we are taking down the purple wall that surrounds the court to bring seating closer to the court and to expand capacity to over 7,500.
