At least that is how I remember it. Way to start off the game. :rolleyes:
What year was that? My brother was on the STM team with Mouton (He was only there for one year before he transferred.)Quote:

No, I don't think that is correct. But if he was, he wouldn't be one now.Quote:

David Dees and Randell Daigle provided some highlights for UL-Lafayette on Thursday night.
Dees poured in a season-high 21 points.
Daigle, a former Northside standout, added a career-high 11 points in his first start for the Ragin' Cajuns.
But it wasn't enough to keep UL from dropping its sixth straight game.
Shaking off a slow start, McNeese State held on down the stretch to beat the Cajuns for the second straight year, 67-61, in a foul-filled non-conference game before a crowd of 3,434 at the Cajundome.
The Cajuns shot only 32.7 percent from the floor in their first loss to the Cowboys in nine games at the Cajundome. ULL shot a season-low 23.2 percent in Tuesday's loss at Central Florida.

"If you're not going to shoot the basketball well, you're not going to win," said ULL coach Robert Lee, whose Cajuns (1-6) have lost nine straight in December dating back to last season. "So right now we're having a really tough time being able to score."
Both teams did in the closing minutes.
McNeese (5-3) was held without a field goal for the final 5:34.
The Cajuns trimmed their deficit to 63-61 on Corey Bloom's layup with 4:43 left, but never hit another shot the rest of the way. McNeese hit four free throws to pull away for its third straight win in a physical game that featured 45 fouls - including 24 on the Cowboys.
"We run a lot of matchup (zone) normally, but they were doing a good job of penetrating," McNeese coach Dave Simmons said of ULL, which still leads the series 51-31. "Dees was hurting us on the drive, so we went to the matchup to cut down penetration. We were able to pick up their shooters better."
Grambling Lab product Elijah Millsap suffered another frustrating night offensively. The sophomore, who entered the night as ULL's leading scorer at 16 points per game, finished with more fouls (four) than points (one).
He was 0-for-4 from the field, failing to make a field goal for the second straight game.
Millsap hasn't made a field goal since the 9:16 mark of the second half of ULL's 98-70 loss at Tennessee on Nov. 30.
"We know Millsap's strength is driving - he wants to take it to the basket," Simmons said. "He's gotten better at shooting the three, but we wanted to keep him on the perimeter. Plus, when he picked up his third and fourth fouls, he had to play tentative on the defensive end and we were trying to attack him there. He kind of backed off his aggressiveness."
ULL finished with a decided advantage at the free-throw line, hitting 22-of-28 compared to McNeese's 12-of-18 showing.
Still, it wasn't enough for the Cajuns, who open Sun Belt Conference play at UL-Monroe Sunday before leaving for the Rainbow Classic in Honolulu, Hawaii, from Dec. 19 to 22.
Lee did his best to console his players after Thursday's emotional loss.
"The one thing I told them was that, No. 1, I had no magic words for them that would make them feel any better," Lee said. "They were very, very distraught tonight because they wanted it so bad. I wanted to win it so bad for those guys."
McNeese got a team-high 18 points from Jarvis Bradley.
Kleon Penn, a 6-foot-11 center who ranks fifth nationally this season with 4.14 blocked shots per game, provided the power in the paint with 12 points and nine rebounds. The senior blocked only one shot, but his presence altered numerous shots and helped McNeese out-score ULL in the paint, 34-18.
Penn played the final 10:45 of the game with four fouls. He was rarely challenged in the paint by the Cajuns in crunch time.
Daigle was disappointed after the loss.
"We weren't supposed to lose this game," he said. "We just had too many mistakes defensively. Offensively we just didn't do everything we were supposed to. What's really hurting us right now is defense."
Daigle said the Cajuns must rebound for Sunday's game at ULM.
"We just need to stick together as a team and do what (coach Lee) says," Daigle said. "We'll get it done."
