Re: Louisiana vs. Alabama (on AL radio)
Alabama has an excellent communications department, one of the best in the country. I'm not surprised to hear that their announcers were very professional. When i drive through AL i like to listen to WVUA, just as i like to listen to KRVS, college radio is really cool to listen to sometimes!
Props to the softball team!!

Not only was this a win over undefeated #1 Alabama, the Lady Cajuns defeated ace Kelsi Dunne in a pitching duel that was worthy of a World Series game (Brignac vs. Dunne).
The Cajuns can beat anyone in the country with Brignac on the mound. Meanwhile, the Lady Cajun coaching staff continues to bring the young freshman in the circle up to speed during the course of the season.
Meanwhile, that Virginia win was nice as well (against their ace ... Melanie Mitchell).

I prefer Louisiana, obviously, but Louisiana-Lafayette isn't the end of the world. They called us Louisiana-Lafayette every time. By the way, congrats on turning this into another name thread.
You know who not to trust? The one who keeps telling you how he lives life with integrity. You know who not to call Louisiana? The one that keeps demanding it. Request it, Demand no "Lafaeytte," win games, and it will take care of itself. In a lot of places, it already is.
My point was simply this: being from Alabama, and announcing softball, I was surprised at the quality of announcers.

That is because Alabama is a class act program unlike the one down the road. Also their HC played for the Cajuns with Stefni, I think.
Re: Louisiana vs. Alabama (on AL radio)
Pat Murphy was a grad assistant when Yvette was here. Sparked his coaching career.
Alyson Habetz is the associate head coach. She played here 90-95
Reading Murphy's bio, they show active win percentage coaches. Didnt realize the Lotiefs were #2 and #3 behind only Mike Candrea. Figured they were up there, just not that high.

Sorry, not Pat Murphy, but I was referring to Alyson Habetz.

We beat UVA 9-1 and UVA lost to Oregon today, ( 3-2) our next opponent.

gotta work on getting a host in the post-season _
And I said someone will care. Some still do and will as the season progresses. Not for the reasons you imagine, but it will not go unnoticed.
