Re: Alumni no longer allowed to use VU libraries on weekends

Since I found the outrage curious, I submitted a question via the link Dores137 provided and asked if there were weekend restrictions to alumni library access. I received a response in less than 5 minutes: "Alumni are welcome all hours that library is open. You will need a new proximity ID car...

Re: Alumni no longer allowed to use VU libraries on weekends

Since this is clearly such a major issue for you, I think it would be worthwhile to use the link Dores137 provided to get an official response. It'd certainly take less time to submit a question there than to ask everyone on this forum. It wouldn't surprise me if it was a summer restriction

Re: Austin Peay Game on SEC+ Network?

Reilly struggled with control and walking batters last year, and is no better so far this season. He's given up 4 walks and 4 hits in 4.2 innings, but has accounted for 6 runs. And poor Sam is a HR-giving machine. 4 HRs in 5.1 IP, and 8 runs allowed. I realize Corbs and Scott Brown want him to work...

Way too early: he us a winner.
I was hoping i was wrong.
In the past month, you've talked about replacing Candice Lee and now Corbin. Is there anyone you don't want to show to the door?

Re: Derek Mason steps down at Oklahoma State, stepping away from coaching

Sounds from his statement that there is no bad blood between him and Gundy. But it was a tough year for Oklahoma State; the Big XII is a tough place to be a defensive coordinator. Sounds as though he's a little burned out, and questioning whether he still has the fire. Sometimes a little time off i...

Re: Military Bowl...Duke vs. UCF

We’ve drawn much better than that for every recent bowl we’ve been in. While possible, anecdotal evidence suggests not. At the 2018 Texas Bowl, "More than 51,000 fans filled Houston’s NRG Stadium, and most estimates suggested Baylor fans made up 75-80% of that total." https://www2.baylor....

Re: Question?

Dansby tried really hard to stay with the Braves, even down to the last minute. Braves' final offer was reportedly 6y/100M and Swanson countered with 6y/140M. Per the Braves GM, "[Dansby] deserves everything he got, but at a certain point, it doesn't make sense for us...he did everything he cou...

Agreed, it's unfortunate but losing Barton would have been a foundation shaking loss.

Re: Women’s tennis

They have at least two very impressive true freshmen this year and just signed the number six player in the country for next year. Plus they return I think everybody from last year so they should be very strong again this year. They also signed a very high level junior from Canada. Based on her UTR...

Re: PREMIUM: The Athletic's profile of VU commit London Humphreys

Both parents are VU grads, so that helps. I also have it on good authority that London is as solid a person as there is. Unfortunately, they're not VU grads. His dad is a current assistant coach at Vandy (All-American pole vaulter at Auburn) while his mom was an All-American decathlete at South Car...

Re: Ryan Clifford

Signed with the Astros for $50,000. As a 5 star outfielder, you would think either he'd have gotten more or might have come to VU and tried to get an NIL deal. Could probably have done better going that route. Now he gets his 50k and will make $300-600 a week and ride buses all over the country. Oh...

RJ Austin pulling name out of draft and coming to campus

It was briefly mentioned in one of the other threads, but felt he deserved one of his own given Dutkanych got one. Big news he's coming and he helps address one of our weaknesses.
