Go to their Board---they think he is terrible as there end zone deal is a 1000 days late---there is no money!!! Always wanting to fire him!!!

Is Tech's success attributable to the performance of the Athletic Director? Just asking........

No but them not making it to a bowl game is attributable to the performance of their Athletic Director

Tech has put their two premier programs in the Top 25 this year and got into CUSA.

The difference between our year and theirs is striking.

[Turbine]

can't say i read the opening letter..

tech being ranked in top 25 in both football & basketball in the same year.. even impressive to me..

It is impressive.

The opening letter is about the coaches first year and how he ended the regular season 13-15 (due to youth) and had a 5-1 run (mostly in the post season) to get to 18-16.

Down 46-35 right now.

Tech 84 Utah State 61 was the final score. I didn't realize Tech was having such a good year. They get absolutely no coverage in Baton Rouge.

They get absolutely no coverage anywhere outside of Rust-on...

They will now. The Top 25 is posted in every newspaper in the nation each week. I imagine Tech will struggle to hang on to their coach after this season.

[CajunRed]

That's a helluva transformation of a program in just 24 months.

Marlin had best get this recruiting class right.

I don't know why the hell bring up La Tech. I personally don't give a rat's backside about Tech. Only good thing about Ruston, it is a good place to take a dump between Jackson, MS and Texas when on I-20. Don't give them cred of any type on a UL site.

Bottom line, UL basketball and the SBC just sucks. No, not a flamer, find my post under Don Allen to see how much I use to care if you have any doubts. We have not had a coach worth a flip since Bobby P. We had Marty the clown, Jessie and the thugs, Robert's lost adventure and I don't know what the heck Marlin is doing, other the regurgitating the same thing every year, "Well, we are young." Positive consistency is what has been lacking with the coaches we have had. One good year does not make a good coach. Pull it off a few years in a row. I don't see what the challenge is in the SBC, once a strong mid major that sometimes received multiple NCAA bids, now a play in game to the NCAA tournament joke.

Somebody wake me up when UL basketball is relative again.

Won't be a play in game this year

Really? Was Tech in a bowl? No. They are having a better season in Men's basketball. This year. Period. There is no "striking difference".

Tech doing work this year. Tech wasn't in a bowl b/c they turned it down. So don't act like they didn't get a bowl invite. Lets rank the top 2 money making sports, shall we. 2012 Tech football > UL football, 2012 Tech basketball > UL basketball. Jelly much?....I think so. True Ruston is in BFE but the athletic dept is putting in work unlike ULL's athletic dept. Its ran by a guy that wears a donkey ___ as a hat. Going back and listening to his interview for the UL/LSU game on DVR, he sounded like he lives in la-la land. Which by the way isn't surprising...most UL fans are in the same boat.
