Head Coaching Carousel

[KajunKrazy]

There are those (mostly here) who will try to put Hud on the hot seat next year.

Nope. He won't be. Nor should he be.

I agree the man is all time 106-44 as a head coach. This is just a bump in the road he will have an attention getting off season and things will get back on track.

Even IF he loses to McNeese next year?

I'm not saying anything about McNeese, they would likely smash us this year. However their QB who is also their leading rusher is a senior. I don't know anything else about them, will they be losing a lot? Yes, I know, this should not matter...but it might.

- Hud knows what happened and he will get it corrected. That's what he is payed for.
- A loss to McNeese will not be forgiven...he already knows that too.....

No Fan, Hud should retire here. That would satisfy most UL fans over the age of 50.

I am 68. PLease do not put me with that group. Thanks

When Bustle lost to McNeese, that was the beginning of the end for him. It will be the same for Hud if he looses to McNeese!

Same here and I am not "near" you and the Boomer's age. Though I am north or 50.

IMO he has two more years of "Not to Hud's standard" of football before we can think about letting him go.

I expect us to win 7-9 games next year.

That is amazing! It wasn't too very long ago that only the top 2 or 3 coaches in all of the country were making that kind of money. Now, G5 coaches are making it. I know that a coach is worth whatever someone is willing to pay, so good for them. I'm just wondering when will the bubble burst and at what price will salaries be at when it does eventually burst.

The AAC/MWC are both pseudo P5 league. CUSA, MAC and the Belt are on a different tier completely.

I'm in the Anti-Sunshine Pumpers. I expect the opposite.

You've got to be joking. The AAC is the top G5 conference, but still far from a pseudo P5 league. And the MWC is no better than the MAC, CUSA, or Sun Belt. Just like the rest of us, they have a few decent programs at the top, and absolute basket cases at the bottom of their conference.

I know you hate pressure on a coach, and can't say a negative thing about anyone in a red UL shirt, but if this staff gives us another season like this one, it absolutely should get uncomfortable around here.

A lot of you older guys are so enamoured with Hud because he won 4 NOLA bowls. Get over it. College football is big business and the life blood of a good athletic program. We've come too far to stop now. If he can't produce AT VERY LEAST at the level he was for the first 4 seasons, he can't be allowed to continue to do whatever he wants.

We're paying big money for a SBC coach and we need a big return, consistently. I know he's the best we've had here in a long time, blah blah blah. This program isn't a ____ hole anymore.

No need to get personal here.

We had a down year this year. There aren't but a handful of mid majors that don't go through that.

If it becomes a trend, then we talk.

But I don't think it will.

ANd, yes, I AM enamored with four straight New Orleans bowls. Because in this league, it's the best we can do unless we go 12-0.

What I don't understand is why you aren't.

I'm disappointed in the season. I didn't expect us to win eight games, but this is disappointing.

Having said that, I believe we will be better next year.

Step back seasons are normal and while not necessarily accepted, should be expected.
