That's what I said earlier. Call the student section the "6th Man". Forget about any other name we have for them. Our fans will make the difference in our home games. This fits perfectly with what happened to us. The whole country knows about it. When we call it the "6th Man", everyone will know it is LOUISIANA.
Re: Bob Marlin is the best
Many student sections are known as the 6th man already(5 on the court plus the fans.) 7th man would definitely be unique though.

Except that we now have notoriety with our 6th Man given what happened at WKU. It is classic and a perfect fit.

Sounds like the need for a specially designed shirt. :rolleyes:
Maybe a court with six players and the logo
"Be the 6th man"
or
"Ragin' Cajun Basketball: Be a member of the legal 6th man". :D

Yes, but he's not as involved anymore. The key will be keeping it that way moving forward.
Re: Bob Marlin is the best
Now that he is here, I guess this is appropriate....

Re: Bob Marlin is the best
Was he not getting much playing time?
How many years of eligibility does he have left?

Shawn Long will be eligible for either 3 2/3 years or 4. If he does not get the waiver he will sit out the first semester which is generally less than 10 games out of approximately 30. We should have him for all the conference games. Many people say mid semester transfers sit out half a year. That is incorrect as they don't realize you can play as soon as your first semester grades are posted which is around Dec. 10. If he does get the waiver, we could literally play him now if we chose to. Obviously that would not be smart as he would only have three years remaining after the season if we did that. Another point is that we don't know when the waiver ruling will occur. Best thing is to have the waiver ruling go in his favor and he start playing in the 1st game of next season. Note he can participate in practice starting today.
