When a group of kids go out one game and shoot 50%... then follow that by shooting less than 30% in the next... i have trouble just saying let's fire the coach.

Louisiana’s Ragin’ Cajuns struggled offensively in falling 63-44 at Denver on Sunday afternoon. The Cajuns 44 points marks a season low and is the fewest since Dec. 9, 2006, an 80-42 loss at Stephen F. Austin. With the win, Denver (11-12, 7-5) moves into a first place tie with UALR in the Sun Belt West Division. UL (10-13, 6-6) falls into third place, one game better than New Orleans and North Texas. The Cajuns shot 31 percent (10-for-32) in the game’s first 28 minutes en route to a 20-point deficit. DU opened the second half with three straight three-point baskets to extend their 10-point halftime advantage. The Pioneers used a 17-7 run in the first 6:51 of the second stanza to take a 20-point lead, 44-24. Two more triples by the Pioneers gave the hosts a dominating 53-29 lead at the 8:36 mark. The Cajuns fall to 6-3 all-time in Denver. Travis Bureau and La’Ryan Gary led UL with eight points. Point guard Randell Daigle led all players with six assists and did not commit a turnover, but was held scoreless. DU had five players in double figures, led by 12 points from Rob Lewis. Lewis and three other Pioneers had a game-high seven rebounds. The Cajuns defense held the Pioneers to just two points in the first six minutes of the game, but the offense struggled from the beginning, making only one field goal and committing four turnovers. Two from the stripe by Elijah Millsap gave the Cajuns a 4-2 edge at the 15:39 mark. As the Cajuns continued to lack offensive rhythm, Denver slowly built an eight-point lead, 16-8, with 6:56 remaining in the first half. UL started the game 3-for-16 from the floor. After a long jumper by Bureau broke the Cajuns scoring drought, DU used an 11-1 run to take a 27-11 lead with only 1:46 left in the half. The Cajuns ended the half with three consecutive baskets to get their deficit down to 10 points. David Dees scored before Tyren Johnson ended the half with two baskets. The Cajuns five leading scorers on the season, Millsap, Dees, Chris Gradnigo, Bureau and Daigle combined for six points on 2-of-15 shooting in the first half. UL shot just 28 percent as a team in the first half. UL returns home for a Valentine’s Day game against Louisiana-Monroe on Thursday at 7:05pm in the Cajundome. RaginCajuns.com

To his credit, he has been able to finally bring in a young, talented team that will delight the fans for at least the next 3-4 years.

Second, I don't think you know how hard it is to coach a team trying to play 12-13 guys while trying to develop chemistry and keep egos in check. He seems to have done that this year.

Lastly, if you knew anything about this team whatsoever, you would probably expect some of the ups and downs associated with such a young and inexperienced team. So obviously, my question is answered and you truly know nothing about them. Have you even seen them this year or do you just complain assume they will fail???
