Les Smith Heading Home

[CajunT]

_ T, are we going after more JC bats to replace these guys in the short term or sticking with what we have and the commits that are already lined up? _

JC corner bat and OF committed, working on one more corner bat and pitcher. All JC's according to my info. I could be wrong on the pitcher.

One question that has been in the back of my mind all season, and seems to have been ignored in all this latest discusion, is the departure of Coach Szefc. I imagine most, if not all of the current roster was recruited by him and that has to play into some of the issues the team faced this season and potentially the departures.

Not to add any fuel to the fire here, but was his depature based on money, oppourtunity, difference of opinion, etc?

Scefz's new team is in an NCAA Regional. He went to a Big 12 BCS school with a recent hoops title. Money was better too, I heard. Szefc recruited most of the 2005 team and nearly all of the 2007 regional team too.

maybe i have missed something here but how is it the coach robes fault for a kid having a dad that wants him to transfer to a JC so that he can be drafted. that is not a coaches fault. Just a few weeks ago i thought all was well with Les and him being a cajun?

Les is not transferring to a JC so that he can be drafted..His Dad has NOTHING to do with this

There have been a couple different rumors on here, but one is he is going to Juco to get drafted and the other was D2 in Tenn. So if he goes to D2 he wouldn't be able to get drafted for 2 more years just like at UL.

_ Good call.

I hope Les makes the right choice for him and his family, no matter what that decision is. We can have our opinions on wanting him to stay, but it is this young man's decision to make and I'm sure it is a tough one. _

AMEN
