Should have never let it get this hard.

Exactly!!!

I think my top choice is Quannas White. Maybe bring Bobby Champagne (former Cajun coach and Lafayette native who is also on staff at Houston) as his top assistant.

Great idea. That may work.

I'd liked to see a Bobby Paschal type guy hired, that guy would check all the boxes..

Can we get off the Brad Boyd fantasy please. I’m sure a great guy and a good high school coach but this program has been set back way more that a “couple of years”. Open a NATIONAL search and find a qualified candidate. Boyd is not that guy. For God’s sake he hasn’t even been an assistant at any level of college basketball. Give it a rest.

He was on staff for two years at UL.

Basketball would be the easiest sport to flip from worst to first in the portal era. Especially in the sunbelt. 2 good portal players next year could be a belt trophy.

Oh my bad. 2 years as a grad assistant under legendary Robert Lee. Let’s count that.

It’s ironic some people don’t want anyone associated with Marlin, yet someone associated with Lee is ok.

Lee, the only coach to sport a MBB losing record at the university since 1957, and one of only three to ever do so in the history of the program, dating back to 1911.

Lee lost a bunch of his players to the then NCAA violation that was in vogue.

APR

Dude had years to right the ship. One of the better dismissals at UL.

And with the Wild West NIL, I’d guess that APR thing will pop up at some universities.
