Assume he failed to mention the way to bring down interest rates is to slow economic growth?

That’s why I believe him when he says he will bring interest rates down…. He will just do so by nuking the economy.

Trump backs down on how he should be able to control interest rates. Then he follows this with a big promise about how he is going to bring prices way down. That's about as viable, & economically sound as Kamalas taking patents promise.

Chicago Loyola #5 on mid majors to watch. Will definitely be a challenge.

Interesting team, whose coach has a fast passing, low error offense...Fun to waqtch....

Meanwhile, our staff, as now assembled, seems to hit about the same level (sans a defensive
big) each year, and this coming season might determine if K&Co. can finally exceed their
predecessors, and we can continue to move up the conference ladder a little....

It has been apparent for some time that if we are really serious about recruiting (and actually
getting) a higher level front court player(s) that something needs changed:
.......Possibilities?
...Upgrade geographic scope of our recruiting efforts?
...Hire a recruiting specialist, especially in bigs...Would have to include global efforts?
...Could our hiring of someone with NIL experience indicate more University participation in
that recriting tool?

I have no idea what the answer is, but the top third of this conference is too good for us to
compete with with out significant improvement in that area of our game....

I think at our level we should be Global recruiting. Saint Mary's and others at our level have assistants with foreign ties or send them out there. Connections is everything in the foreign recruiting game. It looks like NIL has finally made it toward the top of the list with the new A.D. staff after being ignored too long. Konkol finds the National Freshman of the year and Memphis buys him. That is not Konkol's fault but some here seem to think so.

TU has stepped up bigtime with money and it will continue to get better. Konkol walked into a DISASTER and is improving each year. Now, losing Haggerty is what it is...and from what I've seen on his social media..he is ONLY about himself.

I think we will continue to improve starting with this season.

Sister Jean, we love ya! The Ramblers are back and coach Drew Valentine has them trending up with a top 50 recruiting class. Freshmen Seifeldin Hendawy and Daniil Glazkov are turning heads and the portal has been good to them with Justin Moore (Drexel), Kymany Houinsou (Washington State), Jalen DeLoach (Georgia) and Francis Nwaokorie (UC San Diego) joining the ranks. With only one player lost to the transfer portal, the Ramblers are ready to make some noise again.

Interesting, there is no article on tulsahurricane.com about the men's weekend results.

Good to know. Always take the preseason things with a grain of salt. Probably players who won't see 10 min of time this season got a chance to see what they can do..

They substituted two important players at halftime. I presume it was due to the two goal lead and trying to get in some rest. But they were punchless in the second half.

They keep tinkering with the roster and I think their new midfielders are improvements. Pacheco has emerged as dangerous on the left as well.

Yeah, I think the new coach is a keeper if they can hold on to him. I've seen some definite improvements in key positions but I'd like to see a more possession based 6 who can also be a physical presence in the defensive midfield, and a CB to complement Bourgeouis. I was shocked at how easily Tulsa was able to get into the attacking 1/3 the other night and then how dangerous they were creating actual chances. It's a stark contrast to what they've been doing. I know Goodrum was a pure goal scorer and it's always nice to have but I think FC Tulsa relied on that too much and lacked creativity when Goodrum wasn't an option. This actually might turn out in Tulsa's favor getting more guys involved in the offense. Maybe you don't get a 20 goal scorer but 3-4 guys with 8-10.
