t likely begins with the idea of tenure and is helped with all the astonishingly amazing letters like PhD and MSc and such following these turds around.

I can't think of a more self-important industry than higher ed, dick-measuring for academic accomplishment is hilarious to me.

                                        Its not “weird”. Take a look at one school that does it: - MNTIGER MU - 5/18 23:54:52
                                        It’s not that new. Newer in athletics. - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/18 14:03:58
                                             It is kind of new, and compared to buildings it is - alwaysright MU - 5/18 14:39:28

                    you would think the family would make a scholarship or - MU-TULSA MU - 5/18 10:19:22
                         Not pretentious at all. For example - MNTIGER MU - 5/19 00:15:55
                         It’s an endowment - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/18 10:36:49
                         agree. i get if it was promoting a business but just a - TigerA MU - 5/18 10:23:52

                         Who is crying? - Cosmo MU - 5/18 09:21:02
                    So much cringe (nm) - Cosmo MU - 5/18 09:02:39
                    Oh Lord😆😂 nm - Spartus MWSC - 5/18 09:01:44

               No. It’s quite common. For example - MNTIGER MU - 5/18 23:59:17
               RE: Dumbest thing ever(nm) - doughboy MU - 5/18 09:03:06
                    yes, a lot of dumb, cringe-worthy self-important posing - 90Tiger STL - 5/18 18:43:08
                    RE: Dumbest thing ever(nm) - Panthera MU - 5/18 13:16:03
               Lots of schools do this (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/18 08:54:11
                    Don’t care. Still dumb (nm) - Panthera MU - 5/18 13:15:29
                         It’s also how higher Ed works. - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/18 13:21:03

                                        This. Exactly. (nm) - sprintcar STL - 5/19 08:38:09
                    Doesn't make it good (nm) - Cosmo MU - 5/18 09:03:08
          RE: “‘Whitten Family’ Head Coach”. . .means what? nm - Snake69 MU - 5/18 08:46:14
               From what I understand, the Whitten Family are big donors - Spartus MWSC - 5/18 08:53:16
     RE: Hodge signing announced - Dylan MU - 5/17 22:36:24
     Well one thing is for sure, POYer's from JUCO and Horizon - MU-TULSA MU - 5/17 21:20:10
          Sure they can! The point is will these. - longtimereader MU - 5/17 22:16:24
               Most actually have a decrease in efficiency - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/18 08:06:52
          Compete is a relative term - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/17 21:28:01
               That's about what the base goal and expectation should be - longtimereader MU - 5/17 22:30:54
     Gates has brought in a team of guys fundamentally sound - raskolnikov MU - 5/17 20:40:20
          For the most part they seem to fit his defensive plan and - longtimereader MU - 5/17 21:18:32
               You have a slight increase in talent - semotiger83 MU - 5/18 05:55:27
     I think his defense will be his most important asset - longtimereader MU - 5/17 19:51:48
          Not sure about East as a double figure scorer - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/17 20:23:35
               He scored 4 vs Missouri previously - he may have developed - alstl MU - 5/18 09:33:17
               RE: Not sure about East as a double figure scorer - semotiger83 MU - 5/18 05:56:48
               I don't expect nor see him nowhere near his JC level - longtimereader MU - 5/17 21:09:14
                    The 50/40/90 is hard to ignore - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/17 21:20:01
                         Not ignoring it. He could still do that with less shots - longtimereader MU - 5/17 21:41:51
                              Hopefully he does. - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/17 22:16:42
                                   No doubt all of these players are stop gaps - longtimereader MU - 5/17 22:27:49
                                        Shaw and Diarra are the 2 that I think have the chance - wu-tangtiger MU - 5/17 22:30:39
     Sounds like a good player - Genco98 MU - 5/17 19:23:00
