Loyola impact on recruiting

This is similar to the former NU argument. "The money is not there." I call BS!! It's the Catholic church. The money is there if the right person knows how to access it.

For better or worse, there may not be many choices for Moser. I could see Xavier if Mack leaves for Louisville. (I don't know why anyone successful would want to leave for that.)

Otherwise, not much else out there.

The Catholic Church has enough problems paying off for their pedophile priests. But how you can say that they have the money? NU didn't have it till big donors came up with it. How many big donors do you see Loyola having to fund such an operation?

Being a product of a Chicago area Jesuit high school where many of the graduates matriculated into Loyola, I can guarantee you that there are many wealthy Loyola alums living in Chicago. Looking at a list of their prominent alums reveals some famous names including a Ricketts, a Pritzker, Phil Corboy of Corboy and Demetrio, Mike Quinlan - former McDonalds CEO.

There are a few but being a small school, not that many. They could put him in $1-1.2 million range but much above that would be problems. Also remember assistant coaches and support and the bill goes up quickly.

Well it's just been reported that a wealthy Loyola alum has charted a private plane is going down to San Antonio with around a hundred of his friends.

Looks like everyone with even a remote Loyola connection is a Rambler this week.

Just curious, is the location where the Ramblers play right on the campus itself as one heads west just before Sheridan Road turns north? Would it be the same facility where dances are held and if so has it remained the same since their championship in the 60s? As a Northwestern student I attended a dance there at Loyola, but that was decades ago. My other connection with the area was attending a coffee house there where one of the Jazz legends of the time was performing. Oh, then there was that sign as one passed by the closest "L" stop reminding of their championship.

The arena is right on campus, steps away from the L. There is a garage parking deck right next to the arena
