I’m not endorsing any specific game. In fact I provided that Louisiana College was D3 before the changes to Louisiana Christian last year.Quote:

another thing marlin minions do is compare basketball to football at every turn. you think this mbb schedule is anything close to fb schedule? i dont see football playing exhibition games in the middle of the seasonQuote:

No policy would stand up legally when attempting to tell people who they can and cannot be friends with or socialize with. Especially when those two people are private citizens. Jennifer Marlin was also good friends with the late Gail Savoie. She mourns her to this day.Quote:

Will probably make that game. Interested in seeing their new venue. Seems like a really cool idea having the venue within the APC. Growing up in LC, I can’t emphasize enough how badly they needed a venue like this on (or close) to campus. Driving out of town to Burton was terrible.Quote:

Executive--you are not seeing the big picture, you need to think as an executive--who keeps this person you reference as the head of the booster club. Who also appointed this same person to the RCAF board. Do you need a hint?Quote:

I don't blame the head of the booster club for doing what she does, her actions got her appointed to the RCAF board of directors. One can conclude that people in charge think very highly of her.Quote:

Who is responsible for not replacing our top 2 RCAF employees who resigned? Who states they can't do anything about the merchandise available at the Ragin Cajun store, directing people to complain to the store manager? Who is ultimately responsible for the game day experience? Who controls the RCAF board of directors? This person is ultimately responsible for all those decisions people are complaining about.
Concerning the number of non D-1 games:
USA, Troy, stAte and TXst have not released their schedules.
ODU is playing one non D-1, Marshall and JMU-2
GS, GSU, CCU, APP, USM, ULM and UL are playing three.
Opponents - opponents won't do Louisiana many favors.Quote:

Well as long as everyone else is striving for mediocrity with us…Quote:

sounds like we both know her actions didnt get her appointed anywhere. her money got her the appointment. lets not act like an appointment to the rcaf board is a huge promotion. its the booster club on steroids at this juncture in history. maggard does hold responsibility for the failures lately. people are not blind to thatQuote:

By the way, The basketball booster club leader has been supporting the program long before Coach Marlin arrived here. She is still friends with Jessie and Nancy Evans.Quote:
