[fpc4life99]

I tell you what if anything, this has sure got us a lot of attention!!

[cajungrad00]

Yeah, if we do another thread it should be the one I started.

Man.....all the "in the know" "connected" people really nailed this one!

Now which one of you super cool guys are going to feel obligated to be the unofficial Cajun culture welcoming party and give him a cool nick name.....maybe even try to incorporate -EAUX in his name?!?!

Hear billy napiers name mentioned
Current arizona State offensive coordinator

Nailed it!

This is a tremendous hire.....I'm happy and grateful to all involved in getting this Coach here....

[Cajun90]

Exactly. Until the contract is signed, there is NO deal.

That "contract" will have to be approved by the ULS board so that "signing" is probably a ways off. I think it safe to say that the deal is done at this point.

Announcement at noon. Presser Monday.
