Re: Hudspeth explains postgame rant
Let's go make it 9-4 again and go beat Tulane in their last game ever at the Superdome!! The season isn't over yet! I have faith in Hud and his staff that they can motivate this team and win the bowl game. I love his passion for his players and the passion towards this fan base! Get on or get off!! I have been on since the first day he got here and i have no intentions of getting off.
We all have things to say...positive and negative but the positives outweigh the negatives by a ton!! Time for everyone to shut their mouths except for the cheers and yells to help this team to a 3rd New Orleans bowl Championship in a row!! I have my game tickets and my hotel room and i am pumped for Saturday the 21st!! I hope everyone else is!!
Re: Hudspeth explains postgame rant
I never had a problem with Hud's heat of the moment statement about fans.
I figure Hud probably heard a single comment and made a reply that only sounded like it was to the whole fan base.
Kinda like if someone reads a post they don't agree with and later applies it to the whole board.
I can't get mad at either stance, evidently it screamed or echoed with that individual.

It had been a while since you had led the first down cheer. I was getting tired of standing back there with nothing to cheer about.

I am satisfied with the direction that this university is taking in regards to its campus in beautification and I think in the academic area in a push to Tier I status (still waiting on someone to post why we aren't and what we need)-----In the top 5 pentathalan or whatever T-Bine calls it I think we are going in the right direction----Football I am a bit worried with the recruiting as a star gazer----MBB I think is recovering from an initial disaster from the wrong kind of kids and coaches---Really seem to now be on the right course----Baseball should be going to the regionals again along with softball---WBB has had a noticeable improvement and needs to get some taller players to reach a higher level (pun intended)!!!! Bottom line is that we need to bowl every year in football and region every year in other sports ---anything else is unacceptable----This has to be the goal along with the main one to get into the BIG 12!!! Hell while I am at it we need to average 35K - 40k in football---get to 8k in basketball and 3k in baseball!!!! ok gotta go to work!!!
Y U B hatin' da paragraph?

I have never cared about clique and never will. In fact I am much like HUD and speak for the heart and many times it gets my but in a sling. I am man enough to get out of it myself.
Like it or not this board can get VERY negative and it seriously hurts the cause. Yes you say what ever you want, but being a whining two year old does absolutely nothing for our public image or our fight for the name. All whining does is setup the entire fan base for being ridiculed by in state and out of state schools. Hell the Tulane board is already saying that we are going to blame them if ESPN get the name wrong. No I really don't care what they think, but as a whole we should be very concerned about the public perception of UL and it's fans. Perception is reality that our small budget can't make up for.
Now J1M you may be right that I shouldn't have kick Zeph in the nuts. And yes ,Zeph, The USA was embarrassing. But I just can't stand people beating a horse to death. The calls to can coach Willis are ridiculous. Yes the D needs work but show me a D that doesn't.
I appreciate his rant...it shows he has passion and I agree...the haters need to get off the bus.
Again, you can't decipher between haters and those that criticize. I could give a rats ___ what your post count is or how long you've been around this board. However, had you been around a bit longer, you'd probably see how foolish you look by calling me a bandwagoner as you'd know it aint true. Likely, you are looking at a big picture of the negativity and a lot of that has come in way of complaints about the name issue and lack of facilities movement. Again, I typically don't get too carried away with those topics as I am not as interested in digesting them daily but if you are going to call me out, you better get your facts straight.

So Dre, do you think that could have led to Hud's rant? Its the only thing I could figure.

I would seriously doubt he heard us....this was so late in the game that only 200 UL fans remained. The rest were so cold they left, and weren't sitting through that.
It (the cheer) was not meant against the team...more of a look what we did. It seemed like everything was against us on Saturday in Mobile. Offense couldn't do jack, defense couldn't stop jack, refs def seemed against us all night....it was us fans being frustrated about the night in general.

You seriously think our perception among others in this state would be different if we were all sunshine and lollipops on the message board?
And who the ____ called for Willis to be fired? Other than one comment of that nature which was quickly shot down, there has been no cry for his head. There has been legitimate questions about our defensive scheme amid concerns that it would catch up to us if offense wasn't clicking. Guess what? That's what happened the past two games.
