MBB: Louisiana vs UTA

[angeleast]

Great victory. I had to get up at 0445 so I could not listen to game. But it appears we playing best when it counts; tourney time. Glad to see

Good points in this post. Also, these guys did it with no regular over 6'6". Think about that for a second. To win 20 games with those limitations indicates they had to play team basketball and work very hard. I said early in the season that the key to the year they would have would be how they react when a tough stretch hit. Many fans gave up on them when that happened and those of us who support them regardless of how things are going, had serious doubts they could turn it around. They never quit fighting though and ended up with a record almost no one predicted prior to the season. I told people the team knew people were not expecting much and used that as motivation to some degree. Granted, they still have lots of limitations and that will probably cost them at some point in the tournament. It won't be because of a lack of effort however.

Points well taken.

20-11...10-8......8th place and the majority don't care either way...20-11 and hardly anyone cares is the problem..you might disagree with it or resent the problem but it is in fact a problem. A problem Marlin created and one he needs to fix if he wants to stay here. No coach will last once the fans stop caring if the team wins or loses.

Were you there the last couple games? Sure seemed to be quite a few people that cared if we won or lost.

Sorry, but if a fan doesn't care about a 20 win team, that's not a coach problem, that's a you problem.

---Brock--guy you are on a roll--the Cajuns are winning pretty much in all the Spring Sports and the unthinkable happened---Yes your Honey Bears did it----Add to this the expectations of the new AD and the C-Dome being redone along with Tigue/Russo----and what if the Saints get EMcG???

Winning road record and 20 win season with several freshmen playing significant minutes..

It's an accomplishment. This was our best defensive game in years and Harvey was OUT OF HIS MIND from the field. Like I said, best non tourney win of the Marlin era.

I'm a realist.. but we have to know how to appreciate the process. This team has done some nice things this season. Not to mention, playing with confidence and momentum going into the SBC tourney..

Here's a reality check. Louisiana with a six game winning streak is by far the hottest team in the conference. The next closest is two win streak.

The competition in the sun belt this year was actually a lot better than it has been in recent years.

As someone who has had season tickets for 16 years...still currently does, sorry don't think I'm the problem. Why don't you buy tickets to something you don't enjoy anymore and come talk to me.

What part of a young, energetic 20 win team do you not enjoy? If scheduling is your issue, I have hope that Dr. Maggart will be a big help. And if you DO think that Marlin is the reason you don't enjoy basketball anymore, then you're not doing your cause any favors. Speak with your wallet. Give up your tickets. If you want a change, make it known. But don't keep tickets just so you can say you have tickets. Direct that energy and money towards a sport you feel is moving in the right direction. Direct it towards the RCAF general fund. You'd be doing a service to our entire athletic department by focusing on what you enjoy because you'd be more likely to invest even more time and money in that area than you are if you're currently unhappy with basketball. Just don't stand here and say "I buy tickets to stuff I don't like" as if that gives you some kind of fandom authority.
