Letter from St.john's

Sounds like Junior Day at St. John's.

FL-HOKIE
YES, what is that.

Hirrel,
Junior Day gives you (and quite a few others) a chance to visit the school (at your own expense). They will take you around to see the facilities, tell you about their program and give you a chance to ask questions and to watch a home game.

TPM-
Thank you very much.

We should be there also....Same invite. We'll look to say hello

My son received an email to attend the Double Header against Rutgers and was signed by the assistant coach. He also received the Junior day letter to attend the NY Tech game. While I know the junior day letter is standard, I don't think the one signed by the assistant coach is.

It is a common practice for college coaches to offer potential recruits tickets to one or more home games, either football, basketball or baseball, or sometimes all 3. They will either offer a general invitation to attend and put your name on a ticket will-call list or they may invite you to a specific game that comes with a hello & handshake before the game starts. These invitations are different than "Junior Day" where many prospects will attend a talk by the coach, campus tour and tickets to that day's home game. By NCAA rules, a coach can "comp" you up to 3 tickets for any home game. There is no specific meaning to these invitations but simply lets you know that they are interested in taking a closer look. Your acceptance lets them know that you DO have an interest in their program.

Knowing the SJU coaches personally anything you get from them is "sincere"---great gentleman and they know their baseball

My son received the same letter. It should be fun to visit my alma mater. We'll be there as well. I'll be signing autographs in the Rathskellar and Alumni Hall. Look for me in my "limom84" T-shirt...

limom

you dont go to Sam's

tr-

What is "Sam's"? Isn't it the Price Club or something like that in which case, you would be right. I gave up my membership last year. The SJU bookstore is called Ed's...

Is Sam's where you buy "limom84" shirts?

If you do not know SAMS you are not a SJU alumnus

By the way do not flatter yourself with LImom tee shirt talk-- I hear your husband wont even wear one if they happen to exist

I really don't know-What is SAMS? I do know Alumni Hall, St. John's Hall, Marillac, Bent Hall and when right field used to be out past the Student Center. Maybe the Student Center wasn't built yet when you were there, because now, it is not even called the Student Center anymore.

P.S. You're right about my husband. He wears wife beaters with food stains on them...
