Bob Marlin statement regarding J.J. Thomas & Raymone Andrews

[Million$Mullet]

No he could not. He has been in the press and you clueless folks on here have been making all kinds of assumptions and negative remarks about thier character why in the hell would they Ever consider this place a good place to be! This has been a shame on UL and one that will come back as a blemish on the program before it is all done. Raymone and JJ way to have class. Even after being poorly portrayed by this university neither of you made a scene or went to the media. You two will be just fine because above all else said on here you are two fine young men. Anyone who.wants to challenge your character should find you on campus and be men or women and address you face to face. I have no doubt that you both can share the truth with them.
Why exactly should they be treated anymore unfairly than they already have by UL? Funny how everyone loved you during the season but once its over and you have been used things change. Good luck to both of you. Sorry about those who know not what they speak of but blindly follow!

Your boy is transferring. Can you please do the same?

[RaginWaldo]

Cute Waldo- Too bad when faced with the truth we choose ignorance. I will gladly leave here when you all chose to leave the young men alone. Neither of them deserved this but it is what it is. The assumptions you all make are what fuels this. You know what they say of those who assume- Enjoy

What truth? You have been asked numerous times to speak up and have refused. Coming on here and saying these guys are up for sainthood and did nothing wrong isn't the truth. It sounds more like a five year old whining to mama.

I will gladly leave here when you all chose to leave the young men alone.

Your the one dredging it up. This would have been done a long time ago if it weren't for your rants.

Leave them alone? Are you serious? Okay, guys, let's let these poor young men get on with their lives. Sorry about that, playin. There's nothing to see here. Run along.

The reason he told you to Please and gtfo is because multiple users on this site have repeatedly asked you to confirm if J.J. and Raymone openly expressed during the season that they wanted to transfer from UL aka "Jail". You have repeatedly ignored these questions and continued with the same exact sob story over and over and over. So until you answer the one question that has a significant bearing on whether or not these players were suspended and subsequently released, then you can Please and gtfo.

Remember, generalizing is not the way to go, not all would make remarks like some, so don't say "treated unfairly by UL". Not all would ridicule JJ after last season but Raymone seems to be an individual. This is his third issue, now I believe JJ should have been redshirted, just my opinion. I was amazed at his performance last year, but the games I attended this year, he did not come close to his last year's performance. Probably his Knee. Regardless, they and the University are parting ways. Thanks and good luck. Don't think all UL fans are harsh and demeaning toward those who leave.
One final comment, had they done criminal acts to be dismissed, I would not be so understanding.

GEAUX CAJUNS.

[CajunEXPRESS]

These type of things are never openly discussed by coaches unless they are already out in the open.

Clearly one would have to think Bob Marlin a complete fool to run off GOOD guys in his second year.
Bob Marlin is not a fool, so without actual evidence he is now on phycotic drugs I am not buying coach is nuts.

[Boomer]

The 2 guys got their release and they had said that ---THEY WANTED TO LEAVE-------Coach Marlin is rid of what, in his mind, were 2 guys that didn't buy into the program-------So What's the problem????????? Everybody is a happy camper!!!!! I just hope we can play some more games!!!!

I agree it's time to put this to bed.

Neither one of these guys are bad guys. IN fact, I think they're both good guys.

However, and I will never get into this on a message board, for you to suggest they didn't deserve what happened to them tells me I wouldn't want you to be our coach.

They both deserved what they got. I don't say that with pleasure because I like both guys a lot.
