I haven't been on any of those campuses long enough to know for sure but I find it hard to believe they wouldn't be. If he really didn't like the campus climate then basically any Big Ten or ACC school would probably offer something different. My money is still on Syracuse.Hounds01 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 11:03 am So i hear scanlon is looking at SU, Maryland and Penn State.... Not the blue collar atmosphere you think he is looking for. IMO he is looking for a national championship and someone that an distribute to him. Spencer made him look very good this year and he may worry that he will struggle next year,
I think that bet on 'Cuse is solid. I hadn't considered PSU until now, and they don't seem far-fetched either. Neither school is run by Jesuits, and both coaches I believe fit the bill of whom Chase wants/needs as a mentor.
Come to think of it, Maryland fits the bill probably best of all three. Tillman is an upstate NY guy who can connect with kids like no one else imo, and Chase would get plenty of time there next year too. I just don't know if College Park is too much in the backyard of Loyola...could steer Chase closer to his home in upstate NY. And Penn State's weather is just as atrocious as upsate NY, so that would make Chase feel at home.
That being said, if he had wanted a national championship, he should have stayed right where he was.
