Great start by the girls

50-16 half.

State opened the game with a 22-0 run.

81-30 after 3rd quarter.

104-36. Final. Ten players participated for Cajuns, up from usual 8. Injuries healing up I guess.

Was this the last game in a 2 for 1 deal?

They have injuries, so it's ok. 🤐

I know, being pregnant is a serious issue. Can’t play on the court when the baby takes up so much room in the womb.

CE has expressed the same opinion 450 different times in this thread. We get it, you don't like the coach.

I know you do that TooLame math, but your post about my 450th was actually #162. Again liking or disliking isn't the issue. I think Big Fish is a great fella. He's just not good enough to lead our program.

[CAJUNJUDO]

Look at the last 5 years or since Marlin has been here numbnuts.

Why do I need to do the research? So you can call me more names?
Anyone can manipulate data. I hope 2019 is better for you!

Do really think anyone does not know how you feel about Marlin after saying the same thing at least 450 times? (Not just in this thread.) I guess you are thinking that if you say the same thing over and over someone will change their mind? Instead it just comes off redundant. But it is a free country so have fun.

You prolly do our group of 15 use to go to 10-12 games a year and now we go to zero

We continue to go to Football, Softball and Baseball regularly.

Your group missed some exciting and efficient basketball last season in just about every home game prior to the injury bug. Hopefully that level of play becomes more consistent going forward. That may entice some who have moved on to other things to give basketball another chance. Granted play this season has been very inconsistent for a variety of reasons and Marquetti's injury makes it questionable we will see things at last year's level anytime soon. Still, your view is becoming more common at almost every southern mid major regardless of success level. People are simply not as interested in the sport as they once were.

Just to one up you, I will post for the 163rd time that he will lead our program for at least two more years and probably four. That is the case regardless of the opinion (negative or positive) of any poster here.

Confirmed idiots calling other people idiots. Numbnuts calling other people numbnuts. People who completely lack reading comprehension and writing skills display those very traits as they call out others claiming the same when there is a disagreement with what they post. There is a really special group amongst us, it's how they roll and they are nothing more than amusing at times.

2018 MTSU was a top 25 basketball team and the football team won CUSA. But we can’t do that right?

[Million$Mullet]

Get real man. Supporting football and supporting basketball isn’t one or the other. Look at MTSU or WKU.

We pay about $300k more than we should for what we get out of Bob Marlin. I promise you we could pay someone like David Patrick or hell even Brad Boyd half of what we pay Marlin and get the same results with this schedule.

We accept a mediocre team with good results with a terrible schedule. It’s ok if we were destroying teams by 30, but we aren’t. Bob Marlin is so vastly overpaid.

Brad runs some dynamite offensive sets

Another issue is the cost to show up. Between the $18 to sit in the second level and concession prices that rival Saints games, the quality of basketball against a bunch of no-names just doesn’t compliment consistent crowds. I just can’t justify spending money for a product that’s content with mediocrity. Until we start making more postseason appearances and show that we are serious about the program, I will definitely reconsider buying season tickets.

Concession prices are definitely a factor in attendance for basketball. Our administration and basketball folks realize that but have told me there is nothing they can do about it due to the Dome contract. I do wonder if folks running the Dome could be made to realize they are probably losing money with the current deal. Remember 2/3 of our basketball schedule is made up of conference opponents and there is little we can do about that in the short term. Steps have been taken to help the non conference schedule with the proposed conference alliances.
