    Unfortunately, it does.
    Tu will never be a candidate for Xavier's' Hall of Fame.
    Just as Nixon's presidency will be defined by Watergate, and Trumps demise will be defined by his accommodation to the Russians who invested Billions in his otherwise failed real estate projects, Tus will be defined by his ill advised comments.
    Some posters have pinned the blame on Tom Eiser, a decent man, who allegedly put Tu before the cameras at the wrong time.
    They may be right. I don't know who pulled the trigger.

    All I know is, they put him in a bad spot and spoiled his opportunities to be respected by those who eschew thuggish behavior.
    2 things. If i had a million bucks, Id bet it on Tu getting in the Hall of Fame. That's almost a guarantee. Id even say he's a 50/50 shot at getting his jersey retired in 10 years.
    Second, it absolutely is Tom Eiser's job to decide who goes in front of the media. That doesn't make Eiser any less of a decent person(I don't know him nor have I ever met him). A couple college kids made some emotional comments following an emotional ending to a rivalry game. Not to mention their comments really weren't bad. They used terms middle aged white men took out of context rather than realizing thats simply verbiage younger african americans use. To take it even further, Mark Lyons was 100% right when he said the media contributes gasoline to the fire. Get out of here with your holier than thou BS.

    Tu will be in the hall. Retired number? I don't see that happening.
