MBB G3: Louisiana 84, LSU Shreveport 73

Win( I’ll save the “good”part for later)

He was here for a full 4 years. He redshirted the 1st, played the 2nd, never made it on the court in the 3rd, then gave up his scholarship. He remained in school a 4th year and was still close to the team and was on the bench in street clothes. He got his degree and then moved on to LSU Shreveport as a grad transfer. He evidently got a 6th year to still be playing. I have no idea how he went from thinking his playing days were over to dropping 24 on us tonight.

He was the best player on the floor and it wasn’t that close. We don’t have a guard that breaks people down like he did.

Evans had back issues while here. I presume his health is fine now. Had he been healthy here, he would have been a contributor. In post game, Coach Marlin said he has a UL degree and one from LSU-S.

Dou Gueye and Theo Akwuba each posted double-doubles with 17 point and 11 apiece and the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Men's Basketball team won its 10th straight home opener with an 84-73 victory over a scrappy LSU-Shreveport squad on Saturday at the Cajundome.

Yes, believe me Kadavion would not have been on the bench with the Cajuns if their had been issues. From what I remember he wanted to play but did not think he would ever play again. The little bit he played for us, he showed he had flashes to be very good. I am thrilled to see that he may be in better health and was able to continue to play basketball, but more importantly the kid graduated and remember that is why he came to school in the first place.

Gonna take a lot more than that unfortunately. Marlin must have microfilm on the brass or something as he isn't going anywhere.

It was nice to see that Jacobi Gordon made the court. If for nothing else but it makes us a little deeper until we get a few more players back.
