Open up your check book and join the rebounders club!Quote:

So I guess your saying is the coach will only talk to you if you pay. Nice to know.Quote:

Such an impressive resume. To pay this guy what he's being paid is a travesty.Quote:

Now the administration could do a much better job in promoting the games. That is a different issue than the coach.Quote:

My premise is that the program will be OK if a championship is earned next season. Now I realize people don’t believe that can happen. While I would not predict it, I do think it is possible.
I think most fans are checked out or ready for a change. That’s just the harsh reality. We made the dance just last year and responded with the worst average attendance ever since the Cajundome opened.Quote:

I’m seeing at more sporting events there’s a DJ set up, most recently watch the SEC women’s tournament. DJ had an official SEC turntable set up. That’s a deal killer, regardless who the coach is. If I need wall to wall noise, I’ll sleep without my earplugs.Quote:

Understand that. However some will go to games if they play at a championship level next season.Quote:

Marlinites can live in their delusion til Marlin retires. People aren't coming back as long as he's still here. But alas, "some" will still be here defending it.
