Steve Hale Interview

[CajunT]

Nice guys huh?

He was an assistant coach here in the 90's, and he said in the interview that he developed a lot of friendships here and had a soft spot for the school and area.

Late 80's, but your post is accurate. But now that you answered the question, he has no reason to listen to the interview. I hope he does, because then he could make an informed opinion or statement at that point.

[cajunhawk]

Not quite the entire story. He also said (paraphrasing) that having been here he sees the great potential for this program if managed properly

Now Hammer...you know that doesn't fit CajunRebel's seed planting technique. He is still trying to paint Hale as a bubba hire.

[cajun4life]

You know what I meant.

Are you telling me that if we were to run the table, we wouldn't have a shot at the Access Bowl this season?

You know we would.

Only if the MWC or AAC champ has 2 or more losses.

Haha they are definitely passionate about this. That's cool, but you not gonna win a war with only fundamentalists and you not gonna grow your cause overacting to any question.

That makes sense...I bet many on this board have left money on the table by working here in Lafayette instead of Houston or Dallas or elsewhere just because of a love for the area.

I'll try to listen to the interview tonight.

Think about this for a second. Next year we could run the table and be 12-0 with victories over Tulane and Boise. But if we were Boise's and Tulane's only loss they would get in before we would. Due to SOS.

I don't wanna argue with you...or try to convince you...Hale will do that himself.

[CajunNation]

NIU isn't in the Sun Belt.

Right, and NIU's SOS is probably going to be less than ours after the season. The MAC SOS blows chunks my friend. Just like the SBC.

NIU made the Orange Bowl because they got ranked and Boise had 2 losses. That could happen to us.

[CharlieK]

You will never convince me that the Seahawks shouldn't have run the ball. So don't even argue.

[CajunRebel]

No, actually I was just trying to answer Charliek's question after I saw that everyone else opted to to give him snarky responses in lieu of an actual answer.

[CajunNation]

Only if the MWC or AAC champ has 2 or more losses.

Yeah, your point?

Unless we are in the MWC or the AAC, this will be the case. Any school from CUSA, the MAC, or the SBC will have to grapple withj this. Boise had 2 losses the year NIU made the Orange Bowl.
That could very well be us this year.

[CrazyCajun]

You know we would.

Have a shot? Maybe... But a 2 loss boise gets it over us. A 1 maybe 2 loss AAC gets it over us. A 1 loss MAC gets it over us.... They would look for anyone to give it to besides a SBC school. I would include CUSA in that as well. A 2 loss Boise gets in lastvyear even if marshall would have went undefeated. I mean technically I have a shot at being the next US president.

I would never convince anyone of that...dumb idea...Darrell Bevel should be shot.
