Burnt ROUX: JJ Thomas and Raymone Andrews suspended indefinitely

[RaginFan2]

Next year im showing up with a Brad for shooting coach sign.

Halfway through this year we could tell JJ didn't have his heart in it. I was counting on Raymone stepping up to become a leader next year but oh well. Im glad Marlin put his foot down, id rather have less talent and more heart than a bunch of whiny pre-madonnas.

I don't think there was anyone like her --- before Madonna! LOL!

So far, I see Marlin's greatest downfall is associating with and allowing some of the morons I see here to be involved with this program. He should send em' all packing, lay out a season and start over with people who, along with their family and friends, can read, write and reason....and who understand the meaning of ZERO TOLERENCE and TEAM. Furthermore, anyone he talks to who would EVER consider SOUTHERN should only be someone who would be the teams jock washer.

What bothers me the most is how the fans loved Raymone when he was shutting down Stafford from Denver, shooting lights out against ASU, knocking sown pressure free throws at NTx. Raymone played hurt on the Arkansas road trip determined to win. Raymone has never given up on his team. He may not play well enough for some but he never quits. Whether he was thinking of leaving or going to play his Sr. Year he is not disrespectful to any fan. Incase no one was listening when they announced the honor athletes he was one of them with a.3.0. He and Marlin have had differences. This is a lose lose situation that should have been avoided by both of them.

I dont think anyone that is a Cajun Fan, Real Fan and love the school, has anything against RA, he was a good defensive player for us, but so was Orien Greene, Dwayne Mitchell, Immanuel Washington. If you are suppose to be the leader and PG of the team you cant have too many differences with the HEAD COACH, not gonna work...

First and foremost, dont question my intelligence, everything im typing on here is from my cell phone. Typing on smart phones with huge thumbs sucks,I do have a degree from this wonderful university and one thing i dont want is someone to question my intelligence because of a few gramatical errors, Secondly, i agree with marlin leading this team to be sucessful, i was apart of it last year, i saw the potential in this coach and the program.

One loss doesn't mean anything. Marlin guided this team to a winning season. Saints lost to the Rams. It happens. And learn how to type coherently. It makes you seem unintelligent.

Yessir, was a student manager/ student assistant for 4 years, still close to this program today thats why i refuse to point blame like i said before, When marlin came in he couldve have easliy sent me packing but after a meeting with him his first week, he wanted me to stay for my last year because he felt it would be good to have someone who knew the area and the people here, i couldnt refuse, got to be apart of something big last year, i still see positives in which the team is heading

APragincajun must have been some type of grad assistant or student assistant in the past. He says he worked for Coach Lee for 3 years and Coach Marlin for 1 year. That means he is no longer on the staff. He could not have been a paid member from last year as the entire professional Cajun coaching staff returned intact from last season. Coaches Kevin Johnson and Nikita Johnson do the bulk of the recruiting, Coach Neil Hardin is Coach Marlin's right hand X and O man, and Brock Morris is Director of Basketball Operations (he spends more hours doing miscellaneous stuff than you can imagine at minimal pay and is one of the best speakers I have ever met for a man so young). They, like most of the players were embarrassed by what happened on Saturday.

Same for me from a cell phone. Not only spelling but some phrases come out weird.

I get to a pc and I'm like, "I typed that?"

You keep NAILING it, Brad. You must have eaten two extras scoops of Wheaties today!

PlayinCajun, do you believe telling people in the community that you are going to transfer at the end of the season is not conduct "detrimental to the team". I think it is as it indicates you do not have the passion required to help move this program forward. Such actions are all about you, not the team.

Please stay! I love Raymone's Defense and JJ's Rebounding.

I agree but if you aren't going to be with the program and team philosophy, then go. J.J. was made a rockstar last year with this staff riding him on that huge win streak. Only his knee and his poor attitude got in the way of copying that effect this year. Only one of those things he can control and master and he chose not to. I will pack his belongings in bubble wrap myself and wish him a prosperous journey.

I'm starting the think Raymones detrimental conduct was telling outsiders too much info...

ditto...loose lips sink ships ....eeeeeerrrrrr....careers
