Thread: Athlete (2001-2003) Michael Southall

  1. USL (1960-1983)  (1985-1998) Re: What did Southall do

    I am new to this rage page, but not even close to being new to UL athletics. I have been following UL since 1990 back when it was USL. Coach Lee is indeed a very good person and a great Coach. For those of you who are quick to point fingers, maybe you should take a close look at what Coach Lee does on a daily basis at practices and behind the scenes. If in fact he did disciplice these players for "violating team rules" or being late to a meeting, then my hat's off to him. These policies and procedures are put in place for a reason. If a team meeting and film starts at 2:00, then you should be there at 2:00. Discipline is what this team has needed for a long, long time (back to the days of Michael Allen, Tony Moore, etc). Most of you probably don't know anything except for what you read about in the paper or hear on the news or with Jay Walker. I know that previously, athletes were running wild with little control. It was indeed a laughing stock. I say back off of Coach Lee and great job. You need to look at the big picture and see what Coach Lee is trying to accomplish over the long haul, not simply wins and losses.

    Lee seems to be the first disciplinarian this program has seen since Bobby Paschal, and I for one am happy to see it. Who cares about a loss to Charlotte early in the season.

    We had all these guys in against SIU, Tennessee and, gulp, Georgia State. What makes you think it would have made a difference against Charlotte???? The guys who did play apparently played their asses off, and gee, I wonder why?

    Lee sent a big-time message, and he sent it to the right people. For this program, it's about damned time.

    Doug,

    Tell me exactly what entitles you to know what goes on behind the scenes of a basketball program.

    The three violated a team rule.

    Those who want to know exactly what happened are those who want to know so they can make the decision as to whether or not the punishment was harsh enough.

    That puts those about a half step above those who judge without knowing anything.

    You want gossip? You want the scoop that no one knows?

    I'm tired of reading this. If a 2 game suspension wasnt harsh enough for someone missing a meeting, then yall arent getting it. All 3 were punished HARSHLY for something minor. In school, we typically get 3 abcences before we start getting a deduction in grade...could you imagine if our 4th abcense was dismissal from school, or even our first. With this past instance, he didnt eat a baby, he didnt smoke crack, and he didnt shoot anybody, so why are we overcomplicating this. 2 games is enough.

    Becuase it's HIS board. When you have your own board, you can move around threads as you wish. I would think you would be glad to have a place to post and not take issue with Turbine's "housekeeping" style. I've always given you the benfit of the doubt despite the fact that you seem to have worn out your welcome on other boards, but your post came across as downright rude. I for one appreciate Turbine's efforts and if he doesn't want to merge threads then more power to him. He is doing this for free for us, in case you've forgotten. Thanks, Turbine!

    Man oh man doesn't it hurt to see 3 of your top players in street clothes when you walk in to the gym. Well it definitely did suck, but it doesn't suck when you know that and the bookies don't. Thank you Southall, Fields, and Turner, your play Saturday night (or lack there of) was surely appreciated. I'm goin to sizzler with my money!!! Don't get me wrong I hate a cajuns loss, but in that situation you can't go against those odds. Can't wait to have those guys back!!! Thanks for the money guys!

    Jay,

    You of all people would understand why people want to know...The direction of the team and the school is an important topic and basketball is a h_ll of an exciting sport. There's nothing wrong with curiosity. Whoever asked may be asking the wrong question. I think most people are just anxious to see a continuing growing program proceed without any more speed bumps. Opinions and questions are not the problem, it's the judgement. I'm guessing that you are privy to the unknown answer, so the curiosity isn't killing you. Or is it?

    By the way won't you be happy when football season is over and the calls of LSU complaints end.

    I'll be listening tomorrow.
