My brother is at the baseball and softball games and sent me a picture of the T&F facility. Looks really nice. Why no signage on the building, especially with the conference track meet last week? The facility has been finished for some time now.

Naming right haven't been sold. $1.5 million is the price tag.

Hasn't he done well signing private school kids, especially distance runners? My problem is with the lack of talent in the relays/sprints. Not enough talent at this point to be a contender.

That's a problem he will consistently face. Louisiana only produces maybe 3-5 sprinters a year that can compete on the collegiate level. 10.5 is slow in collegiate track. It's very hard to be consistent in the sprints when you just don't have a whole lot to choose from.

We use to win Sun Belt titles with dominating the field events and squeezing out 40-50 points from the track.

I think the other problem I see with the track and field program is the lack of depth. If you look at the results of the conference meet, the teams up top were having 2 or 3 athletes finishing in the top 8, which is where the points are won. The Cajuns, when they finished in the top 8, only had 1 athlete. That's not enough.
