Burnt ROUX: JJ Thomas and Raymone Andrews suspended indefinitely

[playincajun]

His turnover average is what I meant he has half the turnovers to assist. Corrected thanks

[Boomer]

But he hit some nice 3s in some games---When he gets the ball down low with his back to the goal teams double down and he turns it over---also because of his height he has been stuffed a few times---also the inside moves and shots that went in last year have just seemed to never have fallen for him----I think that he also seems to have lost muscle mass on his upper body I would love to see if there is an atrophied aspect because of less weight workout or a nutritional problem!!!!

And FYI. Raymone is one of E's biggest fans. He works with him all the time and supports him. He just wanted to win and Saturday I saw him going to the goal and trying to score yes his shot was off but he did not quit. He is always coaching up his teammates.

First off Marlin said Elfid practiced better. That was lie one. Mone killed them at practice all week. Marlin made the decision to play E before practice 1 last week. And raymones assist to turn over is not i1.7. It is like .7. Now stop defaming either kid and make Marlin and AD tell you all why this happened instead of taking them at saying the will make no other comment then come back on here. You all are amazing. Just SMH.

Again, you seem to know every detail pertaining to this program. It is hard to believe you would not know why RA was suspended. No way he was suspended for playing poorly on Saturday.

I'm sorry to see this happen to both players.

P.S. My only gripe with Marlin is that he allows you to watch practice.

JJ has hit some 3s this season. He's shooting 37.1 percent (13-of-35) from 3, third on the team after McClellan (41%) and Mbamalu (40.9%). But JJ's perimeter game is not his strength, even when he's completely healthy. Operating on the wing limits his opportunities as a rebounder because he's far from the basket. (The same thing happened to Millsap after his freshman year when he wanted to play on the perimeter and become a shooter instead of focusing on his strength as an aggressive, physical 3.) JJ's health has also limited his ability as a defender and resulted in more turnovers while trying to create. Working at the 4 makes sense because he can stay in the paint defensively and get help from McClellan or Coleby against bigger opponents and step out from time to time offensively against a bigger defender while still holding a slight quickness advantage (even at less than 100 percent health). Whenever Coleby and Coleby aren't on the floor he could be the lone post.

For those that do know or have a clue take it easy. Bob is a very low level coach and when UL was under Robert Lee we beat the heck out of Sam Houston so that will tell you about McNeese level coaches. Bob can’t lead!! JJ may be a hand full but he is good enough not to cut him. Raymone is a great kid and certainly a pretty good player. He too should not be cut. Call it what you like but it is simple, Bob can’t coach or lead!

I also remember Sam Houston schooling us in the dome the year before. (2009) Now what's your point again?

[Turbine]

And raymones assist to turn over is not 1.7. It is like .7

That wasn't a knock, I think you may have read my post backwards.

Raymone has 1.7 assists to every 1 turn over.

Elfred is 1-1

Some of u guys post really get me sometime because imo, u really don’t know the game of basketball, idk where to start, lets go with payton, to say he is not a point guard is pure ignorance, someone brought up rondo in an early post and they were correct, stop watching nba scoring point gaurds like, westbrook, derrick rose, d Williams etc and expect every pg to be like that, those guys are really sg who can handle the rock. Payton turnovers has nothing to do with his lack of ball handling, its more about his decision making which will come in time, he just turned 18. As far as jj is concerned, if you notice, it seems like his baskets are tuff to go by this year. Its really simple, jj is the perfect case of a strong undersized post player, think about who he had on the court with him last year, daigle, bureau, gary, and brown, when jj was on the court with these guys, he got a lot of easy buckets because you couldn’t leave the other players to double team jj, so he was always 1 on 1, now with a lack of perimeter shooting, teams can now collapse on jj and make his shot tough,I hate that this suspension has happen, neither side wins, but as someone who knows more about this situation than 99 percent of u on this board, please reframe from jumping to conclusions either way. I like marlin, mone and jj, all I can say is I wish they could’ve have seen eye to eye, if anybody have anything they want to say or ask me, feel free, I will respond but as someone who has recently been apart of this staff, I will not say anything to discredit this program

come on, this aint the place for this

Really is any body surprised by the actions te bob marlin has done. In his first year he kicked two seniors of a team that he just got.those two guys by the name of colby batiste and courtney wallace for no reason at all..batiste was affected heavily by it and had his scolarship taking away oncehe graduated notto mention that he played a half a season with a torn meniscus and needed surgery and the school tried to get out of it by not paying for his medical needsand. Fortunatly he got a lawyer and toke care of things.he then went on to get rid of javan mitchell for no aparent reason what so ever.b bob marlin along with more members of the athletic department are really going aginst the way you treat people and something needs to be done.his job is to be a coach sometimes your going to have kids that are not traditional hoosier type ball players the great coaches learn how to deal wth those things and make the best team with those players. In all actuality that's what wins championships...let's be honest we were expecting a roy williams and got well...bob marlin a former graduate asst/waterboy that gota job at a converted division 2 school that got beat by robert lee many of times so it ain't like he just is the solution..he ain't no mark hudspeth no way lol...better yet he is no coach you guys he has a great recuiter that wil pay anything for a recruit has a great defnsive corrdinater in kevin johnson and the man who really runs it is james hardin so...marlin half of the time is not even focused for the game his staff is the man piece...most of the time this guy is late on road trips because of his rockstar girlfriend that he chased in his first season....so all in all he is who we thought he was

Gosh my friend. You are all over the place. Tell me about the rock star girlfriend.. how does one classify as that?

I'm not sure anyone thought we were getting roy williams.

You really bragging about Robert Lee beating a D2 school?

Pay anything for a recruit? Really?

Wouldn't Marlin being smart enough to hire Johnson and Hardin be a good thing for Marlin?

What the hell are you doing watching closed practices? If Marlin knew you were then coming on here to stir crap up, that privilege might be revoked.
