I just heard the Saints were heading out of Thibodaux and coming to Lafayette next year. Didn't they just sign a new contract?
I don't know about them moving to Lafayette, I heard they will play (scrimmage) the Houston Texans next year at Cajun Field and the money will go to UL Athletics.
From the Advocate
It's going to be wide open," said Bustle of the quarterback derby for next year. Junior quarterback Eric Rekieta will probably undergo elbow surgery in the spring. That would leave senior-to-be Jon Van Cleave and redshirt freshman-to-be Jerry Babb as the Cajuns' leading contenders for the starting job in the spring.
I am glad to see this, may the best QB win.
Why wait till the spring? Hasn't Eric seen how long it has taken Shaq to recover.
Does anyone know where I can find a list of the 40 times for the Cajun's? Is there another webpage that would have them listed?
Nothing handy, I will keep looking. Although the media guide has it for most.
Perhaps I or someone can gather the info that exists.
Hey thanks! It's awful hard coming by information up here in Iowa. I've been thinking about getting that media guide, is it pretty informational? Also, do I buy 2002's or just wait for the next one to come out.
I would like that information also.
Why would anybody believe anything listed in a media guide about height,weight,speed, and power. Nice to read, but hard to believe.

* Sun Belt Conference game
If new SBC member Utah State is somehow worked into our schedule the series with them is tied at 1-1.
Teams in bold went to a bowl game or were bowl eligible in 2002.
The history of these games indicate we will have a very long season. Hope Bustle understands that what was does not have to be what will be. He is the first UL coach that has been given a real shot to move forward by the administration. He has a lot of baggage to change.
I really hope something is worked out with Minnesota to put off going there until 2004 so that we can play Utah State either there or here it does not matter. I think at this time 3 BCS teams on the schedule (USC, OSU & Minnesota) is too much for our very young team. In another thread I started it shows how we played much better against these type teams in 2002 than 2001 but we payed the price for these tough early season games when conference play came around we had no gas in the tank. I don't think we should run from anyone but it is suicide to keep scheduling like this. Hopefully it will change with the 2004 schedule, i.e. more MAC, WAC & C-USA teams than BCS teams. If we can change the Minnesota game to Utah State, we then have 7 conference games, 2 BCS games and 3 Non-BCS 1-A team games. A much more reasonable schedule, one that gives our team a tough test but also a chance to succeed. :D
Some dates I gathered off of other sites. * indicates the date is off of the teams official athletic website.
08/30 @ South Carolina*
09/06 Louisiana Tech
09/13 @ Idaho
09/20 @ Minnesota*
10/11 ULM
11/15 Middle Tennessee
:D
Bring 'em on!! Remember.....There's a new sheriff in town!
I think we'll go 6-5 with a surprise win infront of a large crowd in the opener vs La Tech. (Tech fans go home happy though because they were able to get some good food and buy some booze in Lafayette) :D :D :D :D :D :D
(the smiles indicate the Tech fans going home with booze)

. . . at the go home happy part not the win. I like the win.
WOW!! Three straight home games, then three straight road games to end the season!?! MAN, that's going to be BRUTAL!!!! :eek:
Jack, what I posted above is a little misleading the whole schedule is not in order yet. Only the first 4
08/30 @ USC
09/06 LaTech
09/13 @ Idaho
09/20 @ Minnesota
are fairly certain. The rest I do not know about they just happen to be put in that order. I will update this as soon as I hear some more dates.
Well, I guess I can breathe a LITTLE sigh right now...
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! :p
What type of defense will the Cajuns run next year? Will the Jucos that Bustle is bringing in probably start or will they be there primarily for depth? Will any of the freshman that redshirted crack the two deeps?
Bustle will stick with the 8 man front, just like Va Tech runs. What you see, offense, defense and special teams will be just what Va Tech does. Bustle will recruit players to fit these systems. Speed is an emphasis everywhere over size. Athletic QBs are needed. There's no reason to bring in a JUCO player if they can't contribute immediately in some way.

I would be lying if I didn't say that schedule is scary, how many of those teams met the NCAA requirements to go to bowl games? I think I see 4
:eek:
I'm going to go out on limb and say that we're going to go 7-5 next year........It was just a vision that I had after the third beer last night.....
How is Tech considered a "designated conference game"
