I saw Dion Brown's son was visiting UCLA this week. I think we are one of the six teams on his list. I also think I saw Trajan Wesley was a commitment as well.
Just saw coach Marlin, Jordan and what Im thinking was his mom and dad, driving around campus on the cajun cart. His mom was snapping all kind if photos of him. She seemed to be eating it up. She had a huge smile on her face!
Best way we can impact improve our odds of landing Brown is to help bring a good crowd to the Dome tomorrow night. We realize that people going to Houston for baseball may make that somewhat of a challenge. However, the people not going there will hopefully show up Saturday night and try to bring friends with them.
Is his mom as Cajun alumn as well?Quote:

Got a shot?
I haven't heard anything, but the longer he goes without signing the better I like our chances.Quote:

We gave him a real excuse not to come with that pathetic display against LR in the last game of the season.

I spoke to someone who played with his Dad and they visited before the game when he was here. I'm not anywhere near 100% rock solid on this but, his feeling was, he is not coming here.
Dribble, dribble, dribbleQuote:

Having a guy like Jordan would obviously help negate that.
I'm curious to see where Julien will be with rehab as well. Some indications I've heard suggest he is not planning to redshirt next season. Problem is that he still has not had his surgery as of this past weekend. To me, that would put the earliest return time to be sometime in December or January. Not much time to get him acclimated to the college game.
I was told the surgery occurred back in February for Julien. Still coaches don’t think he will be available until Christmas.Quote:

I think Marlin’s ability to get players that end up in the NBA will help a lot. I also think it would be a huge shot in the arm for our program, mostly because of timing. A successful season and national coverage during NIT fiasco will have LOUISIANA fresh in the basketball media. Landing Jordan would be a shot heard around the NCAAB world.
Then, adopt the “have ball, will travel” moto until coaches agree to come play us in the Dome.
I spoke with someone two days ago that discussed this with him and said he hadn't had it yet.Quote:

Landing Jordan would get the ncaa sniffing around just like when we got that big man from cecila. Boudreaux was it?Quote:
