Ragin' Cajuns head to CIT in Post Season Basketball

[Turbine]

I understand political correctness, but we were in postseason in 04 and 05. I didn't dream about that game against Louisville.

I was thinking the same thing

[CajunT]

AAU Coaches hammered Cajuns pretty hard?

- About removing players from the team?

Slappy, we discussed this in our chat last week and this goes beyond suspending two athletes.

[CajunT]

You may be right, but that attitude doesn't help recruiting. Ask Trent Johnson.

Correct, UL will have an up hill battle recruiting Louisiana and have been.

[Turbine]

I think losing records have been the biggest obstacle to recruiting.

Winning records make you attractive and trumps any vendetta pub.

I guess we don't get filled in?

I think Jay's blog pretty much laid it out. Specifics really don't matter because the only ones that can change this is Coach Marlin and his staff by winning, and building better relations in Louisiana.

[CajunSaint]

If AAU coaches are so closed minded or self-promoting enough...or whatever else should be used...to fault Coach Marlin for doing what needed to be done, then that's on them. He did what was best for the program...including the remaining players, which evidently those AAU coaches forgot about.

isn't the guy on sunday mornings on espn1420, dave, an aau coach?

What about Green's charging call---Jay tell us about Petino and the call---I think that was your story!!!

Greene was out of control

Spencer gave us all he could and had a hell of a game. We should have won but from what I remember Greene only played like 15 minutes cause of foul trouble

He is. Not every AAU coach is a butt, but many are and seem at times to be more interested in what's best for them...not the kids they coach...and surely not the colleges their kids are getting recruited by. I don't consider Dave in that group.
