Ragin' Cajuns head to CIT in Post Season Basketball

[RaginScotsman]

The lack fan support, much less participation, is an anomaly. I know I'll be there with two others and have been spreading the word to other friends. I for one am really excited and will try to be loud. A post season game at the dome? How awesome is that? It doesn't matter what tournament we're in. These guys are getting the post season bid they missed out on last year. Now I just wish we could have the same buzz about the program as last year.

anyone know if the game will be webcast or any video at all? Working out of town and would like to see the game........

Thanks, Doc!

I hope you guys have a better result than we did. We came out flat and played like we didn't really want to be there.

Tough to beat any team when they shoot over 60% from the field. That is what McNeese's opponent did last night.

So Mike. Please tell me Im going to get to see the REAL DEAL EP come out smoking the competition tonight. I really don't want to bring the hammer down on yous all. I would much rather have the majority tell me how wrong I am on this matter. Have no doubt though, the hammer is on ready & waiting to strike should I see a massive fail job.
