    No matter what a coach may say, 3 & 4 star recruits matter.

    No excuses anymore!
    Jesus H, that is depressing on so many levels.

    Our facilities our top notch, Lafayette is a place people love, kids can get a quality education. These are things that are not going away and will not change.

    What we can change is the reason they aren’t coming here and it has to be one of two things.

    1. Head coach

    2. Sunbelt Conference

    Both of these things CAN change

    You had someone tell you to Go Feed Yourself too? I got the same thing not too long ago.

    Some kind soul is worried about us going hungry. Bless them.

    Same point though.

    Key difference:

    Bustle was sound on fundamentals but poor on motivation.

    Hud sounds good on motivation but is poor on coaching fundamentals.
    Hud USED to be good on motivation. And, I’d even go so far as to say many of Bustle’s recruits wanted to be motivated to run through a wall for their coach. I’m not sure how many of Hud recruits are wired that way.

    The narrative is that a booster is required to pay the seven figure buyout and I just showed why it is baloney! As I stated, if they are going to brag at a big alumni donors event they've raised $7-$10 mil in total RCAF donations, then it's total BS.

    Supposedly one guy gave 6 million. Kicker is it in a trust from which only interest/dividends etc. can be used on an annual basis. When the guy passes, athletics can do with it as it wishes.

    $226G was his base school pay and you know it.

    His supplemental subsidized income almost doubled his base pay.

    Mike, I don't care if Savoie's aunt gave the money, $500 K is not an outrageous number and anyone looking in at our program from across the country would laugh their backsides off! If you can't buy him out in installments, then we are a joke unworthy of discussions concerning any other conference other than the SBC.

    With ew signing period fired at the end of the season puts the new coach behind the 8 ball.

    It is not baloney. A seven figure buyout is required. So what if it is in installments. You still need someone to come up with the money. We have very few people who are willing to do it. Count me in as a person who doubts we have all those big donations in hand.

    And as I have said previously, there is a big difference between donating money to a project or team and buying out a coach. A lot of people want to see their money go to something tangible. Maybe we can say this firing is brought to you by service Chevrolet.

    Exactly, it’s still 1.5 to send a man Home. It’s pretty funny how easy people throw other people’s money around. Why don’t they take out a 30 year mortgage on HUD’s buyout if paying in installments is so easy and worth it.
