Of the schedule we contol, we had 2 quad 1 games, 1 quad 2 game, 2 quad 3 games, 6 quad 4 and 2 non D1.

That makes our "improved" non conference schedule 5/13 against teams with any semblance of a pulse and 8/13 against virtual corpses. Of the 5 more or less decent non conference games, NONE were at home..

Disgusting...

5th Place in the Sun Belt

1 and done at the hands of a 8-seed.

Anyone else want to spin this "19 win season?"

Big Fish is what he is, a mediocre coach who will never have more than mediocre results. There is no way to spin it. If the administration is satisfied with these results then we as fans should boycott the program until he is terminated.

There’s someone with a radio show and who also might POSSIBLY post here who was just on the air talking about “Millenials b*tching” about this basketball season. May I remind that person that some Millenials on here donate money to the RCAF and are investors in our sports programs as well.

Also, 19-win seasons against Southland and Sun Belt competition is not a failure but AVERAGE. Losing a freshman and one defender should not warrant finishing in 5th place with a postseason 1 and done in this conference.

Cost matches quality. Ticket prices and RCAF donation requirements have increased over the past few years meaning people will expect a greater return. This isn’t social club. This is business.

Time to start earning that paycheck.

Someone should also remind him that some of the "millenials" leading the charge to fire Marlin were fans before he ever heard of Lafayette, Louisiana.

Nine years in 8 post season wins in SBC tournament. Really can’t spin that into a good thing.

Nine years in losing record vs top 150 can’t spin that into a good thing.

So what does he or she have to say about those who aren't millennials? I'm not in this generation but I'm at a point that I have decided to not further my financial support of the program. This is not to say that I won't carry a high level of interest for the program, watch on TV and attend certain home games from time to time but my donation level has ceased.

That’s the point. There’s a ton of NON-Millenials who feel the same way. LOL!!!

Let's not gloss it over, Express; that's 9 years in and a losing record against the top 200 RPI.

Well I wasn’t sure so.
