@#$%
Damn, dude won a conference championship and got a presidential term
What are the terms of the contract? Hopefully they are more incentive based but that’s probably not the case. Oh well
Yay! Mediocrity!
2027 NCAA Tournament, here we come!!!!!Quote:

You say mediocrity, but since the 2010-2011 season, only one school has won the SBC Tournament and advanced to the NCAA Tournament with an automatic bid more than Louisiana. Georgia State (4), who finished dead last in 2022-23 with a 10-21 record, 3-15 in conference.Quote:

that's me--i was asked yesterday what my problem was, was it ignorance or apathy? i replied "i don't know, and i don't care."
We have an incredible year last year and our biggest “fans” respond by lining up to yell about how they will do absolutely nothing to help or support this program. For however bad you imagine Marlin to be for this program, just know that this fan base is 100x worse.
Seriously, you guys suck.
Its not hard to understand.Quote:

Why? Without rebranding the replacement model, the existing name would have cost sales.
A great season is like the new model, but its attached to a tainted mediocre brand.
Marlin needs to grow a mustache and change his name. ;)
. . . Let’s go with Skeenes . . . most here won’t give him a chance anyhow and fans that post here only count about 30 or so . . .
When we don’t win 19 games next year, get back with me.Quote:

Quit acting like the program sucks.
. . . support for the young men of Louisiana Men’s Basketball who have chosen to compete with Louisiana across their chest is in order . . .
