That said, for the talent Richard can get to ULM.....I think he does a good job.

I respect your opinion, but it sound so “Martin Hall” or whatever the ULM administration building is named.

LASERS=Louisiana State Employees Retirement System. My wife is a 33 year retiree. Now working on her TRSL retirement.

Got the win. South Al next. They were in a tight one

Yes. I was worried he got hurt; he didn't play for the last 6 plus minutes of the game. I think that caused a lot of our turnovers but I did see some good plays by Kentrell Garnett.

I think it was a learning experience for Themus.

Lewis was turned around in the handshake line talking shat to the students. They were a mouthy bunch.

Overall Richard is 298-356, but at ULM he is much worse only going 148-240 (38% winning %) and 81-143 (36% winning %) in conference. He has not had a winning season since 2018 where he went 19-16 and only 3 winning seasons in 13. His best finish in conference was in 2014 and 2015 where they finished 2nd.

He was actually a pretty good coach win/loss wise at La Tech where he was 150-117 in 9 years at Tech, but the success has not translated at ULM.

Not sure what Richard is making, but it's the same administration that put this together to hire Terry Bowden so they can win 4-5 games a year. Seems like they are content with just staying afloat.

This was pulled from a 2021 article. If that's his salary, I can imagine it's the lowest in FBS.

"The proposed contract is a four-year agreement through Dec. 31, 2024. Bowden will earn $350,000 in base pay and a possible $50,000 in incentives if the Warhawks become bowl eligible or win the Sun Belt Conference — the same salary structure as former ULM coach Matt Viator.

Other benefits include an annual housing allowance of $40,000, an annual vehicle allowance of $10,000 and a monthly cell phone allowance of $45."

Hope he has rollover minutes.

Supposedly up to 600K. If the ULM administration, in the opinion of some, is content getting what they paid for, is that where we’re are heading overall?

If this is accurate, Keith Richard is making $231K a year. If that is correct, he is way overpaid for his results.
