Personally, I'd have a tough time believing Coach Marsh would really leave
Saint Lawrence until it actually happened. He has really embodied the program
for so long in both good times and bad.  I suspect Merrimack would have to
make him an extremely attractive offer t get him to move.  "course, if he
*did* move, wouldn't it make an interesting opening for Ron Anderson?
 
As far as any "difficulties" SLU has in recruiting, they have begun offering
scholarships to help them in that area, beginning this year.  Not sure why
they didn't before.  Even with them, though, they've had some great players on
their rosters (the Lappin brothers, Steve Paopst, etc.)
