Watch South Alabama's coach go nuts

[bballholic]

_ Naaaaww, 'cause it was funny. _

Fair enough, I'm not really sure how I managed to mix up the two words.

I think loss in the outcome and the coaches fit is the question of how a player catches a ball passed to him when he is looking back toward his goal, takes 4 to 5 dribbles, and puts up a jump shot that leaves his fingers all within 2.4 secs. Not that in matters...just interesting.

Someone called in to BEV about that. Apparently the clock does not start when a player touches the ball. It starts when the ref drops his arm. Now, in theory this all happens simultaneously (possession, arm drop, clock start).

So the clock operator isn't even looking at the ball, just the ref.

Daigle sure can dribble fast...

If Lee were canned after this season, would you entertain the idea of bringing in Mark Gottfried? He had moderate success at Alabama, but nothing much to brag about as of late.

Looking at his record, what he did at alabama and murray state warrants a serious look from us. The question...as it always is...are we willing to pay quality money to get a quality product?

_ Not to get into the middle of this, but lets you and me remember that it's his home forum and not ours.

You two have always seemed to have level-headed comments that I think we (Cajun fans) should take as constructive and not be so defensive because of your monniker! I think we all want our respective universities to be the best they can be and an outsiders view helps at times. Now, if we can be the best we can be that would eliminate a lot of negativity!

_ This make no sense. If there is a close play in the Super Bowl am I going to shut off my HDTV and run into my sons room to see it on a small non-HD monitor?

I would imagine that the reason it's like this is because not all schools have the large screens like the CajunDome does. But, everyone can have a small screen on the scorer's table. It's about fairness and equality, which are the two qualities the NCAA operates by daily.

I find him very comparable to John Brady. Neither guy is a bad coach, just needed to part ways with their respective schools. Brady has done a pretty good job at Ark State so far, and his resume isn't shabby. Gottfried could tell recruits that he put several guys into the NBA, made an elite 8 appearance, won SEC titles, etc. Like you stated, he should definitely get a look if the position were open.

I'm an administrator for an LSU message board, and I enjoy our visitors. Personally, I get bored when reading the same point of views day after day. Now, I don't enjoy when an opposing fan joins simply to flame the board with posts that have no substance. Having spent a lot of time in Lafayette, I figured I'd join your site. My in-laws have strong ties to your school and I'll admit that I'm a casual fan of the Cajuns. As long as it doesn't interfere with my alma mater, I'll pull for the Cajuns and attend games from time to time.

"Where was the monitor?"

Same place as YG's plaque.

_ "Where was the monitor?"

And where would that be?

Good question. Z knows, but he won't tell us.




And since you're new here, it's a long-standing joke here about YG's old plaque that "mysteriously" disappeared when she moved across the basin.

Thanks for the heads up. I had heard that before, but wasn't sure if there was any truth to the statement.
