Despite a spirited defensive effort, the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Women's Basketball team came up short against Marshall, 48-46, in the third round of Sun Belt Conference Championship Tournament on Thursday, March 6 at the Pensacola Bay Center.
Fire Brodhead. Does the admin even care?
I watched the game, as I have for most of the season. This team had good potential to go deep into our tourney and even win it on good night. What's so frustrating to me, is this was one of the most talented and tallest group that we've had in a long time. The had lots of injury issues early on, but anybody watching could see the potential was there. The part that gets me so wound up is when we turn the ball over making a pass that either wasn't there or was not accurately thrown. If you watched the game last night, the TO's we had compared to Marshall was indicative of this trend. We turned over Marshall by making a great move to steal a pass or pressure defensively. We, on the other hand, turned it over a lot just making bad decisions or thinking we could make a pass that wasn't there. Frustrating!
Now, Gary has to replace at least 9 players that were in there last season of eligibility.
Don’t look now, Marshal WBB is making a run at the 7 game gauntlet. 4-0, plays 3rd seed Troy next.
Does any other conference have a similar bracket format?
It’s time for us to move on from Brodhead.
It worked as designed, down to top 4 in MBB & WBB.Quote:

Just adds crappy NET ranking numbers to be absorbed by the eventual champion. Want the eventual champion one day to have a chance at a decent seed? Got to trim the baggage. Compounding bad NET numbers help nobody, except those who want to hold the non power programs in their place.
Arkansas State beats JMU in OT 86-79. A massive crowd of 847 in attendance.
Other than Title IX, anyone wish to justify this expense? Who is making the money at the end of the day?
It also doesn't help attendance to play the game at 1pm on a Monday.Quote:

There is a whole lot of don't caring going on in AD's offices around the SBC when it comes to hoops in general [MBB has 4 of 14 in top half of NET, 2 in the top 100].Quote:

And the SBC’s one top 100 NET women’s team will be sitting at home come selection Sunday. Just like the men’s only top 100.Quote:
