Softball rebuilding? Maybe so...

[CajunDreDog]

Foote has now written a blog: http://blogs.theadvertiser.com/foote...h/?sf9389660=1

S...H...I...T!!!

[reddot]

just think if Nelson would have done something dumb enough to ____ her off bad enough that she would let down all those kids the day before the season?

And do you think he never did?

If Foote's blog is remotley close to being true, I have lost all respect for Lotief! Any money issues, coaching issues, administrative issues that may have changed after he and his wife decided to make changes in their lives (which I don't blame them for) should have been discussed in detail and known long before one day before the season starts!!!!! I guess all the talk about how much he cares for his players, and his claim that they are all one big family must be a bunch of BS. I know that I would never abandon my family because of a possible dispute with my employer!!!! If there are issues this serious, why did Lotief not bring them to a head long before now? Seems to me like he is attempting to hold UL hostage.

I know many on here are not Farmer fans, but if Foote's blog turns out to be true, I will side with UL and Farmer in this instance. I know many of you will not see it that way, but as successful as Softball has been (even with the small budget they have had for years), FOOTBALL (1st) & Mens BASKETBALL (2nd) are driving the bus in this day and age and UL needs to do everything possible to get those two programs where they need to be to get us to the next level!

Maybe he did and he was promised some things and they weren't delivered.

"...non-verbal communications" ????????? WTF? Facial tics, sign language, sticking your tongue out,===what?

[HOUCajun]

Ain't siding with Farmer. Nope...not gonna happen.

Why would anyone side with anyone until the facts are out?

[SlappyCajun]

And Yvette Girourd could be the interim . . . Whoa.

[CajunSaint08]

Can anyone explain this? Steve Peloquin is reporting on ESPN 1420am that Michael Lotief is stepping down, effective immediately. Please tell me this ain't so.

GEAUX CAJUNS!!!
