LA Tech vs. Louisiana

That's a great question. Hopefully someone in the know will give us some
insight. If he has only a half year to play it seems like a senseless situation
for both parties involved. All these players needing the 80% for the extra year, if it doesn't play out, could come back to bite us in the arse. IMHO

Adeife having only one year left and Roberson having two makes no sense to me. If you look at their history, it is very similar. No one has been able to explain this to me yet. Even if it is only one year, having Adeife here makes sense as he will be near the top of the league in shot blocking. He could help us get into post season play.

The La Tech coaches said that Rob Lee said that the Cajuns would no longer play Tech.


What does Rob Lee say?

Simple really, we are already on the hook for too many road games on the schedule next year and need more home games. If Tech would agree to come here next year to start the next series, we would have a deal. I understand Tech's reluctance to come here for two consecutive years however. Keep in mind, that we went to your place first to start the current series. Perhaps the series can start again in Ruston the year after next when we won't be obligated for so many road games. As for our reluctance for another road game next year, keep in mind that the SBC says our road games can't exceed the sum of our home games plus neutral court games. I don't think there should be any bad blood here as both schools should understand the others point of view. Feel free to bring this explanation over to the Tech boards.

Not to nitpick but he won't be playing a full season.
By post season do you mean getting past the play-in game of the Sunbelt tourney.

Adiefe will be playing about 3/4 of a season. However, he will play a full conference season. By post season play, I did mean playing past the conclusion of the Sun Belt tourney. Obviously, having something like what happened against Troy occur again will be very disappointing.
